On Prism, helmed by core duo Alex Paterson and Michael Rendall, The Orbs pulsating discography grows evermore huge. Despite the connotations of its title, here they continue to rollick freely without inhibition acrossambient, house and dub, but also tangent into poetry, pop, fullblowndrum n bass and actual reggae.The LP features electronic musicians David Harrow whose CV includes Anne Clarke, Psychic TV, Razormaid,Adrian Sherwood and Andy WeatherallandGaudi whose credits include Max Romeo, Capleton, Johnny Clarkeand Desmond Dekker. Other guests include Orb regular Youth,violinist Violeta Vicci,Kompakt records alumnusLeandro Fresco, Metamono man Jono Podmore, Guitarist and Alexs old school chum David Lofts, plus vocalistsEric Von Skywalker, Andy Cain and Rachel DArcy.Prism begins with the epic winding journey of H.O.M.E, which features a poem by Paterson, before Why CanYou Be In Two Places At Oncehellip kicks into a funkedup, afrobeaty chug.With Patersons decadeslong love for Jamaican music and output oft drenched in the dubwise, it should come aslittle surprise that The Orb have now gone full reggae, on theebullient nostalgia tale of Von Skywalkers youthfulromance, A Ghetto Love Story.The album then disappears down a wormhole of rubadub headmusic called Picking Tea amp Chasing Butterfiles,which sounds like Colourbox meets Popul Vuh in Shanghai, and also echoes back to Weatheralls Ultrabass IIremix of Perpetual Dawn.Flipping the script entirely, by sprinkling a large bag of disco dust, is the slinky boogie wonderland of Tiger thename and nickname of Patersons son and late brother respectively, which juxtaposes but somehow cohereswith the melodicatinged thunderous bass music of Dragon Of Oceans and its Sirius B gazing wordplay.The expertlyexecuted, floaty 90s trance dance of The Beginning Of The End works very nicely within its ownfamiliar parameters, which contrasts sharply with Living In Recycled Times, which ignites over ten plus minutesinto fullyfledged, raveready DampB fire, which although out of their comfort zone still sounds very Orb.The album ends with its title track ndash a big, ambient epic done in fine style.1.H.O.M.E2.
