Orbital 2

Orbital
Released 1993Electronic
Start herePicked by a lifelong record collector

A landmark of melodic, emotional techno, home to 'Halcyon'. Lush and immersive. A genre cornerstone. Released in 1993, it's an early landmark for Orbital.

On vinyl: Vinyl can be scarcer than the CD from this era, so it's worth looking for a recent repressing.
