"Never" is the brand new track from the newly reunited, very influential UK techno duo, Orbital, which is available for download for free. For seven years they haven't released a single and now we have first taste of the double A-sided single. It will appear on the forthcoming eighth studio album to be released in April 2012. It's about time they get to work and get the hamster wheel rolling once again. I hope their efforts surpass that of the Blue Album in 2004.
"The as yet untitled record, due out sometime in 2012, is described by Orbital’s Paul Hartnoll as “a kaleidoscope of everything we like about electronic music. But the biggest influence on this album has been two years of playing live, listening to old Orbital music. We wanted to make music that we would like to play live. It had to flow and ebb like a live set.” Below, you can hear an early taste in the form of the album track “Never” (via COS)
