Malicious Damage
Dr Alex Paterson’s waxwork stands dusty in the dance music hall of fame, neglected by janitors since the death of the rave dream in the mid-‘90s. The plaque once bearing the accolade of “Ambient House King” has been sprayed over with graffiti reading “boring hippie crap” and “noodly soundscape bollocks”.
Hopefully this new offering will brush away a few cobwebs from our tarnished collective memories, 'Baghdad Batteries' going to some lengths to remind us why we fell in love with The Orb in the first place. What we forget is that Paterson (joined here by minimal house titan in his own right, Thomas Fehlmann), though a keen purveyor of sedentary chill-out music, never sought to compose lullabies for slumbering ravers, preferring to entertain and uplift their addled minds with humorous samples, twisted melodic vamps and deep cerebral rhythms, all of which can be found here of course.

I like the concept of Baghdad batteries, it’s clearly a political statement but in quite an unusual way. I have only heard a few songs from the album and so far it’s don’t sound as great as their old stuff but it is still them and I have enjoyed the songs a lot.
The Orb these days are
The Orb these days are founder member Dr Alex Patterson and Thomas Fehlmann, whose influence in moving them Berlin-wards, towards minimal techno and glitch-dub, has put the Orb more in touch with current trends than at any time since they were setting them 20 years ago. But Patterson's sampledelic zaniness persists.

I was once chatting to a sound engineer who worked on this album over one of those Voip Phone Systems and he gave me a huge insight into the making of the album which has made me enjoy it more. Although I still don’t think this is as good as their early work I look forward to seeing what they will do next.
