The Orb - Orbus Terrarum (Vinyl 2LP | UK & EU Original | 1995)

The Orb – Orbus Terrarum was released on Island Records in March 1995 and takes the band's ambient dub in an earthy, organic direction – long, flowing pieces such as "Plateau" and the 17-minute "Slug Dub" define the album. It was created by Alex Paterson together with Thomas Fehlmann. On offer is the UK/EU original pressing as a double LP in the limited "Map Pack" (ILPSD 8037).
