About
Golden Orb Records is an Australian based electronic/dance label focusing on pushing a unique blend of deep, atmospheric downbeat, electronic dub and drum & bass music.
Starting out in 2008 as a digital drum & bass label, Golden Orb (GOR) burst on to the emerging digital drum& bass market to provide dj's and music lovers with a flavour of drum&bass which wasn't being represented on the vinyl market. Fusing soulful liquid sounds with deep atmosphere, Golden Orb wanted to aid a revival of the 90's sounds championed by the likes of LTJ Bukem, Big Bud and DJ Nookie, but with a more upfront, modern sensibility.
Being one of the first purely digital drum & bass labels on the scene, Golden Orb Records enjoyed a degree of success through record sales and publicity throughout 2008 and 2009. But at the end of 2010 label boss 'Operon' started to move away from drum & bass compelling the decision to postpone releases on the label until a new creative angle could be decided upon for the direction of the label.
Now in 2012 Golden Orb Records is back in business concentrating on pushing a more eclectic mix of chill-out, electronic dub and left-field drum & bass. Compositions which afford the ability to chime with music appreciators from many backgrounds, not just die-hard drum & bass fans. Atmospheric music that whilst still bass-heavy and beat-driven, transcends the confines of the dance-floor to enter a realm of immersive listening delectation
