Album Notes & Community Reviews
'U.F.Orb' is a highly playful, deeply psychedelic milestone that brought ambient house to the top of the UK charts. The collective masterfully weaves surreal science-fiction sampling and heavily dub-inflected basslines into an incredibly hypnotic and ethereal rhythmic experience.
