The Orb have been pushing the boundaries of electronic music since the late 1980s, and Abolition Of The Royal Familia marks a compelling return to form for the iconic act. Released in 2020 on Cooking Vinyl, the album sees Alex Paterson and company channeling the energy of their classic pop-house era, blending infectious beats and hooks with the atmospheric depth that has always defined their sound.
Featuring contributions from an impressive roster of collaborators — including Youth, Roger Eno, Steve Hillage, Miquette Giraudy of Gong and System 7, and On U-Sound's David Harrow — Abolition Of The Royal Familia is a rich and layered listening experience. The album balances dancefloor energy with the kind of abstract, immersive ambience that longtime fans will recognize and new listeners will find captivating, making it a worthy addition to The Orb's celebrated catalog.
