Orbital

Orbital brought melody and emotion to rave. Brothers Phil and Paul Hartnoll built long, evolving electronic tracks from layered synth lines, rolling breakbeats and samples, music that worked as well on headphones as in a field at 3am.

'Chime', recorded at home onto cassette, became an early rave anthem, and the Green Album and Brown Album, as fans call their first two, set out their style. Snivilisation added politics and humour, In Sides went more expansive, and their 1994 Glastonbury set, played live in their trademark head torches, is one of the festival's most celebrated.
