New Orb album news + The Orb has remixed Transmission
Info from Malicious Damage:
this is all mixed, mastered and being manufactured at the moment... it's all
brand new material from alex paterson and thomas fehlmann, it'll be released on july 6th and here's a slice of the press release: "... the good Doctor sets the controls beyond any Earthly confines and gets down to stratospheric sound painting and advanced sonic science, sprinkled with an avant garde disregard for conventional structures. These startling electronic odysseys are hatched with long-time collaborator Thomas Fehlmann, The Orb's Berlin connection who's been there from the first album and last made his towering presence felt on 2005's Okie Dokie album for the renowned Kompakt label, bastion of Berlin techno. Such is the case with Baghdad Batteries where the pair have injected some of these breathtaking outings with a subterranean house pulse beamed up from the Earth's core, resulting in a new form of space disco which sounds as old as time itself while brushed with the most future-pointed minimal techno shadows..."

HFB's first single is already out.
Somehow I missed it. The first High Frequency Bandwidth single, called Hitchocock's First Bugle, is already out on digital download sites (like 7digital.com). It also have interesting video. And according to their official management site, HFB's debut album, called Paradise Ali, will be released near the end of 2009.
