An instrumental album about connection and disconnection, ‘The Oansome Orbit’ may be divided into eight separate tracks, but to all intents and purposes it functions as a single piece, segued into an hour-long mutating drone. It veers between soft, deep tones and fuzzy static and harsher, more shrill higher notes.
There are points (‘Holding, Never to be Passed’) where the sound grows expansive and still, rolling washes of sound, and these contrast quite sharply with the phaser gun and feedback conglomerations of ‘Düülbludgers’, which, over the course of 10 minutes builds to a swirling vortex of sound on sound.
