Reviews
- Edited 2 years agoFantastic pressing of a great album, sounds so good. Have had this on cd for eons, but on vinyl it's a totally different experience. Got this and the repress of Ultraworld on the same day, both wonderful records. The Orb in the early nineties were something very special and got me through many stressy/brainstorm/melt -down times, and as such they have a place close to my heart......and this still sounds amazing all these years later (but then can something so original sound dated? I think not). Top job. All I want now is a re-issue of Leftism and Orbitals brown album and I will be a happy chappy.
- The first copy of this sounded amazing, but unfortunately I accidentally scratched it. My second copy I got has a bit more surface noise, but is still totally listenable. Pick up a copy if you see one.
- Stunning album, put it on and let the exquisite sound wash over you, a treat for your senses.
Very impressed with the pressing too as the original was 1992. 
Terrific pressing, no issues except for the paper sleeve debris. A good brushing and this copy plays clean and quiet with excellent range. Sounds amazing.
A truly classic Orb album, timeless classic and a great re-press.
I'm halfway through Blue Room now... it is astounding! Truly an album that must be experienced on vinyl. Great pressing.- Absolute gorgeous pressing! Received this and the Adventures 2017 releases today and I'm so glad I spent the money. My original U.F.Orb was played a million times and it shows. These are very dynamic, quality masters by Miles Showell and they are outstanding.
- Could anyone who bought the reissue please comment on the pressing quality?
