''The Orb's Adventures Beyond the Ultraworld'', a 1991 ambient house concept album, is the debut full-length release by electronic music collective The Orb. The album's framework is of a two-hour psychedelic trip through music genres and studio electronics, produced to "push the threshold" of live stage performance. The double album is a continuous progressive composition consisting of several tracks advancing the journey concept and composed of vocal samples and sound effects interspersed with original music. There are three versions, a 109:41-minute UK release (US Cassette copies this tracklist), a 70:41-minute US release and a 182:05-minute UK Deluxe Edition reissue that was released in mid-2006. ==History== The Orb have always primarily been composed of one individual, Alex Paterson, along with numerous and varied individuals assisting throughout the group's recording career.〔Prior to The Orb, Paterson was a roadie for Killing Joke, and worked in Brian Eno's EG Records.〕 Paterson's late 1980s and early 1990s chillout DJ sets in Paul Oakenfold's ''Land of Oz'' night in the club Heaven are thought of by those involved as legendary〔Paterson's "White Room chillout sets are mentioned (here )〕 and included collaborations with another ambient house pioneer Jimmy Cauty. Paterson said of these events: Following success in the singles market (including 1988's ''Tripping on Sunshine'' and the ''Kiss EP'' and ''A Huge Ever Growing Pulsating Brain That Rules from the Centre of the Ultraworld'' both in 1989),〔The singles are detailed (here )〕 Paterson and Cauty started work on their first album but split in 1990 due to disagreements about releasing The Orb's material on Cauty's record label KLF Communications.〔There is some evidence to indicate they split because of ''artistic differences'', Paterson viewed himself as a musician, Cauty as a DJ and there was some concern that Cauty was treating The Orb as a side project.〕 While Cauty released his portions of the planned album as ''Space''〔There are direct parallels between ''Space'' and ''Adventures'' but Cauty removed Paterson's attribution from the credits〕 and resumed his partnership with Bill Drummond as The KLF. Paterson moved on to his next collaboration ''Little Fluffy Clouds'' in Autumn 1990 with Killing Joke's Youth. The track was recorded by an 18-year-old studio engineer and future Orb collaborator Kris "Thrash" Weston. In April 1991, the Orb released ''The Orb's Adventures Beyond the Ultraworld'' for an audience familiar with their groundbreaking singles and several John Peel radio sessions.〔The "Maida Vale" Peel sessions are listed (here )〕 The album was received in the UK and Europe with critical acclaim. The album rose to position No. 29 in the UK Album charts. By mid-1991, The Orb had signed a deal to release the album in the US but were forced to edit the double-disc 109:41-minute UK release down to a one disc 70:41 minutes. The full double-disc version and cassette were later released in the US by Island.
