Where this album fits
- Career context
- By the time 'Orblivion' was released in January 1997, The Orb was transitioning from their groundbreaking debut 'The Orb's Adventures Beyond the Ultraworld' to a more refined sound. This album followed their critically acclaimed 'U.F.Orb' which had solidified their standing in the ambient house genre. At this point, The Orb had begun experimenting further with structure and composition, moving deeper into intricate sound design.
