This album is so unique and different from almost every other electronic album that it is almost impossible to categorize what it even is. Every song is completely different from the last, it doesn’t sound a single thing like their predecessors and is completely random, capricious and unpredictable. The way how it keeps you guessing what is going to happen with every minute of it is phenomenal. Even though it sounds as if everything on here is really random and impossible to make patterns of, it manages to stay consistent and relevant to the overall mood and feeling of the album. The album takes one through many wild rides and journeys; it arrives with its arms just waiting for one to hope aboard. It allows you to travel through an imaginative synthetic earth searching for the answers to life. For these reasons, The Orb have managed to create one of the most beautiful, creative, imaginative and mind-bending electronic albums of the 20th century. It may take many listens to fully appreciate and completely adore it, so I am imploring you to do so. Orbus Terrarum is one electronic album you do not want to leave out of your music collection at all.

Originally part of the Ultimate Edition.
Inside the Harlequin is included here in its complete version, before it was only [12:19].
BarracudaDrum is previously unreleased.
CD 1, on the one hand, contains the second part of the Oberhausen-concert, with "Schwanensee" on the other: two solo pieces which were recorded in 1976 in the studio in Hambühren.
"Fear at Madame Tussaud's" was recorded in April, 1977 in the London planetarium – at that time a novelty, for it was the first time that a concert was held in a planetarium.
"Zeitgeist" is a concert which was recorded on October 17Th , 1977 in front of 5500 people in the Saint Michael cathedral in Brussels, "Inside The Harlequin" is the encore of this evening.
The recording date of "La Vie Secrète" cannot be exactly determined after all years any more. Recorded either in 1977/78 or 1975 this piece remains a very quiet, almost meditative jewel.
In contrast to this stands „Barracuda Drum“, recorded about 1978 with Harald Grosskopf on drums. Last but not least at the end of the third CD we encounter the Klaus Schulze of 1979:
In October and November that year Klaus Schulze was on tour with Arthur Brown ("Fire"). "There was Greatness in the Room" is a fragment of the encore of concert from October, 29th 1979 in Brussels. The specific thing about this recording: Beside the voice of Arthur Brown the vocoder-voice of Klaus Schulze is also to be heard …
