Originally released in 1993,
The Brown Album
marked a significant evolution in
Orbital
's sound -- and was met with widespread critical acclaim.
NME
awarded it 9/10 in their review, and it was chosen as one of
Mixmag
's best albums of all time. Standout track, "Halcyon + On + On", became an instant classic, known for its ethereal atmosphere and haunting vocal sample from
Opus III
's "It's a Fine Day." The track's dreamy progression and uplifting yet melancholic tone made it a staple in film soundtracks and DJ sets, embodying the emotional depth electronic music could achieve. "Impact (The Earth Is Burning)" is another defining moment, an evolving journey of layered breakbeats and dynamic synth arrangements, reflecting the duo's ability to create both club-ready and introspective music. Meanwhile, "Lush 3-1" and "Lush 3-2" demonstrate Orbital's knack for crafting intricate, evolving grooves, balancing pulsating rhythms with melodic flourishes that keep the listener engaged.
The Brown Album
2CD includes a second disc of rarities, including the full 11:09 version of Halycon and the 13-minute Underworld mix of Lush.
The Brown Album
2LP reissue has been cut at half speed, to ensure maximum audio fidelity for this landmark release, and is the first time the album has been pressed on vinyl for over ten years. 2LP version (LMS 1725320) comes in double black 140gr vinyl, in gatefold sleeve, with printed inners and sticker. Also available in limited edition, double gold and khaki vinyl (LMS 1725321).
