Orbital’s self-titled second album, known as ‘The Brown Album’, is being reissued across a number of formats, in May.
Released in 1993, it features tracks such as ‘Halcyon + On + On’, ‘Impact (The Earth Is Burning)’ and ‘Lush 3-1’ and ‘Lush 3-2’.
Two box sets are available: a 4LP vinyl package and a 4CD box, both large format. They come with a 60-page hardcover book (which features notes by Andrew Harrison), two A6 flyers and a sticker. The vinyl is cut at half speed, although it’s not clear if that extends to the two bonus LPs in the box (which additionally comes with a slipmat for your turntable). The CD box offers 22 bonus tracks, the 4LP set, delivers 11 bonus tracks (see full tracklistings, below).
4CD box set comes with a 60-page book and folio for the four discs
An album-only 2LP set is available on black vinyl and coloured variants and there’s also a 2CD set and a cassette available. The 2CD version is simply the first two discs from the 4CD box.
The Brown Album is reissued on 23 May via London Records. The official shop is offering signed prints with either of the box set editions.
