David Gilmour/Orb album to be reissued

Posted August 11, 2023 by Floydian Slip

On Sept. 29, Sony Music/Legacy Recordings will release “Metallic Spheres in Colour,” a reworking of the 2010 album “Metallic Spheres” by The Orb, featuring David Gilmour.

“The idea for ‘Metallic Spheres in Colour’ was that Alex Paterson (founder of The Orb) could have done more on the first version, and he didn’t really have the opportunity because we had a philosophy of making the music like the Blade Runner soundtrack meets ‘Wish You Were Here,'” according to Youth, producer of the album.

“So, I asked him why don’t we remix it and make it like an Orb classic? And in doing that, it’s almost like a completely different album.”

Gilmour’s partnership with The Orb came about when he met Youth in the studio when Gilmour was recording “Chicago/Change The World” by Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young, a benefit track for British hacker Gary McKinnon.

The album consist of two tracks:

  1. Seamless Solar Spheres of Affection Mix
  2. Seamlessly Martian Spheres of Reflection Mix

It will be available on LP, CD and streaming.
