They loom large in his legend (The Album Collection playlists): Part 1; Part 2; Part 3; Part 4; Part 5; Part 6; Part 7
Active compensatory factors: I managed to find this on a visit to Covent Garden's amazing FOPP store in 2011. I am not a fan of electronica, but I am a fan of Pink Floyd and David Gilmour. He features prominently on Metallic Spheres so I had been looking for a copy.

The Orb is basically Alex Patterson who provides 'sound manipulation', and keyboards plus a revolving series of partners. In the case of Metallic Spheres it is Tim Bran. Youth also contributes his unique skills to the album.
Ambient techno is the order of the day as the album meanders along very pleasantly. It's perfect album to relax to on early morning commutes, or late evening relaxing at home.
Where do they all belong? A great addition to the ambient techno collection which includes Bass Communion, Eno and Bonobo.
