The Orb - Buddhist Hipsters (2025) [Official Digital Download]

In an ever-changing world, The Orb return with "Buddhist Hipsters", another mind-expanding journey from Alex Paterson and Michael Rendall.

The album features dreamlike collaborations with Roger Eno, Miquette Giraudy & Steve Hillage (System 7 / Gong), Youth (Killing Joke), Paul Ferguson (Killing Joke), Andy Falconer (The Orb / Sedibus), Trevor Walters, Violetta Vicci, Eric Von Skywalker & Andy Caine.

Described by Paterson as one of their best, it channels the spirit and energy of "U.F. Orb". Recording was a joyful, therapeutic process, with Rendall’s genius shining throughout.

"I was having a dream, and in this dream was an escalator descending out of the clouds, upon which were Buddhists and hipsters travelling downwards,
and beckoning me down from the top, was Roger Eno. When I woke up, I had a text from him, asking if we fancied more collabs, so he's on the record, amongst
other friends. Recording the album and playing recent gigs have been comfortable, happy and therapeutic experiences, largely due to Michael Rendall, who's a genius that picks up anything he turns his hand to. We have a wonderful, simpatico relationship on record and on stage. Overall, the length, arc and energy of "Buddhist Hipsters" energy mirrors one our fans' faves, "U.F. Orb"."
