Orb, The – “Moonbuilding 2703 Ad Remixes / Sin In Space Pt1” – [Kompakt Schallplatten]

humana   9/17/2016   12-inch, A Library

Take some great music from Alex Paterson and Thomas Fehlmann, set Kompakt founder Wolfgang Voigt (aka Wassermann) and LA producer Teebs the task of remixing that music, and you get this sparkling result.
A1 is super cool remix that starts slow but takes off and builds to a cruising altitude with beats and vibes, not unlike what we could imagine a moon journey would be.
B1 opens in medias res and continues with nice energetic beats with chimes and layers throughout, including samples that sound like “Obi-Wan Kenobi, help me.”
B2 is more noisy but includes bird chirps.
One of the samples says, “First, God does not exist.” No need to worry–as long as music like this does, we’re good.
