The legendary Phil Hartnoll, one half of pioneering electronica monsters Orbital, hits Róisín Dubh with his Orbital Classics DJ set in collaboration with New Moon Sessions, on Saturday September 9.
Orbital, the British duo of brothers Phil and Paul Hartnoll, have crafted a vast catalogue of ambitious yet accessible electronic music, informed by a wide range of genres such as ambient, electro, punk, and film scores. They became one of the biggest names in techno during the mid-'90s by solving the irreconcilable differences previously inherent in the genre: to stay true to the dance underground and, at the same time, force entry into the rock arena, where an album functions as an artistic statement - not a collection of singles - and a band's prowess is demonstrated by the actual performance of live music.
