- ORBITAL - "The Box Part 1" from the IN SIDES album
Written by Paul and Phil Hartnoll
Drums : Clune
Some facts about this track:-
Drums supplied by Clune
The bell part started as a cyclical sequencer experiment
The sounds reminded them of a cold war drama soundtrack. It was an attempt to do a Steve Reich style, poly rhythm track but soon moved into a 60s style spy score.
The Dulcimer sound, a favourite from the 60s and 70s spy films, took a long time and effort to make the sample.
Paul split the keyboard with identical sides so he could play it like a dulcimer player
A love letter to John Barry. The idea was to mix great scoring with dance music.
The Box could be a TV but it could be a coffin or a packing crate or a small box with micro film...
I loose my best Friend last Week... He shows me a lot of Music, especially this Brilliant Album. He is now Dancing with the Stars and i am so Lucky to meet Him. Go on my Friend, i love you so much.
Im sorry for your loss. I hope you’re doing better :]

i always felt this album was the masterpiece album, a more concept album with an audible see through, thematically. It sounds to me like baroque or classical music like Vivaldi or Mozart played on synths, its textured and multilayered, delicate, softer and painstakingly thought through......i thought it showed a little more maturity and focus then the preceding albums, more IDM then rave, i remember at the time the anticipation for it, the album cover is far busier and colourful, the art house vids with Tilda Swinton, pure magic that video, its so unique amongst the work, a much quieter experience, don't get me wrong all the albums are fantastic, but by middle of nowhere we are back to a very loud bombastic carnival sound, this album though is really special it will be going on the spaceship when we leave the solar system.
Это не Моцарт, это Вагнер!
@@dukekursk if you say so mate
@@paddylyons2510 Thanks bro! Спасибо братишка! 👍👌
Unfortunately the only way to leave earth into space is by listening to such music. Space is fake - research it.
One of the most inspiring tunes from the UK in the Mid 90's for me.
Is 06.2024 and still i'm listen one of the best songs ever!!!! Thanks Orbital for Box and DWR
Best album ever!
How many times we've listened to this track in good old days?..
Miss u my friend :)
I always play this tune when it's raining. Such a track. I highly recommend people listen to 'The Box' Single which is in 4 parts. It's a true masterpiece.
it's gray and rainy here rn and this fits the vibe, no question.
I am obsessed with the "the thebox" - it is song of my life.
Fortunately Blissfully Lost in these songs. Timeless!🔥
Genius 💙💙💙
Instantly takes me to a different time and space. So lovely.

Masterpiece was and still is. I vividly remember how I was blown away when I first time heard this song on some Lovely Summer Day back in 1997.... My Bowers and Wilkins are purring on this song :-)
My PX7's are alive with these tracks
Love this, never heard this version
A panoramic jaunt through some beautiful sonic landscapes always a fave. 🌈
I wish they would do another album like this... there are so many things going on in the world right now, to serve as a backdrop for such tracks.
Brilliant track. Thanks for my soundtrack to the last 25+ years!
This album is a masterpiece. Blew my mind as a teenager!
Still my favourite album of the 90s. I adore the harpsichord track on the BOX single
I think it's dulcimer
@@micemincer the lead instrument is, but on the single one part is lead by a harpsichord until the lead kicks back in
This is my favorite album
Since 90s
Thank you Orbital for this album. It really helped to shape my experiences of my first few years in London when it came out. It's really very beautiful.
Seattle, for me.❤❤❤❤
Sublime menacing intro, deep base layer comes in, another iconic Orbital track. One to chill out to with your relaxant of choice.......still sounds good and gets plenty of plays.
ORBITAL OMG I FOUND YOU GUYS THROUGH “The Beach” soundtrack I hope you know what I mean
They know.. :) Beached was a great song too
Everything they touched was gold around this era, they also remixed the theme from The Saint, not the best movie, but the remix was great
Really the best Orbital made in my opinion.
This song i can hear anytime, never gets bored or or gets overplayed.
Listened to this song lost of timea ans i stil find out new things.
Today i learned that it isn't a harpsicord but a dulcimer for instance.. really amazing that that instrument was used, it really makes this song great.
Along with the slower drums and the tubular(?) bells it's classical music in a new jacket.
I hope part 2,3 and 4 will be uploaded too, this version isn't "finished"
Masterpeice. I was first introduced to this at Sheffield octagon late 90s. Never gets tired.
Remember watching it on mtv listening to it again tonight first time in years brilliant stuff i had this album on cd but through time got lost great to have it again when ever i want
I LISTENED IT BACK IN THE 90'S, THERE IS STILL VINYL, GREAT MUSIC, AND THERE WAS A VERSION WITH VOCAL, WAS ON A CASSETTE, PLEASE POST IT!
The calm before the storm.... but those zither(?) strings still feel like my highly strung nerves 🙂
@Orbital
....... or The Box could be my body, that encases my soul..... as I listen to to this beautiful song where spy’s help each other covertly work as a secret organization to bring world peace and unity among humans..... my fantasy, fueled by music from Phil and Paul.....!
🎶🔥🎶
The masterpiece
Dope track one of the favs
Lovely Stuff!!!
This is the album which introduced me to Orbital, and this is the track which transported me beyond the relams of merely listennning. It evokes mysterious tales of hidden corners and complex plots and is suffused with the imprint of John Barry. The whole album is a symphonic masterpiece of subtle electronic tunes and I love to come back to it again and again.
Just love it 😍😍😍
I'd only just first heard The Box part 1 a year ago when I listened through In Sides. The only song I'd ever heard from the album was The Box part 2 back around 2005. I'd never cared as much for The Box 2 as I did for the Brown Album tracks, but hearing part 1 in the context of the In Sides record helped me make so much more sense of part 2.
I'm a much bigger fan of part 1 though. The chord progression is lovely and more varied than in part 2.
I love this!
The Hartnoll brothers should compose a second part of this masterpiece with all its atmospheres. They teleport you to the future. Those nuances are hard to find on other albums.
I hope someone will agree with me the best tracks on this album are “girl with the sun” “box part 1” “Dwr budr” and “out there somewhere part2” part 1 also awesome
This is box part 1... lol but I agree :) Also a big fan of Adnans
I think we all want orbital to make some more epic long playing tracks
@@jeffmk951 I for one would love to hear some more Orbital! They will never come to Australia, probably, but I wish they would! Or even just one of them!
@@Jagonath Phil Hartnoll came to Australia about 5 year ago and played a DJ set at a very small festival at a community farm outside Melbourne in Eltham he was great! They also both came for a proper set in 2019 at The Forum in Melbourne which was celebrating their 30th anniversary but unfortunately I missed that :/ some clips on UA-cam from that night if you want to check it out .. I'm sure they will be back sometime.
Choon 🤩 reminds me of Connect Festival 2007, Paul’s Ideal Condition dropping this acoustic version into their set. 👏 Fantastic set!
Чудова композиція, відгуки дитинства....
My own experience...
The Brown album, doing bathrub buckets (using flatpress and emptied 2 litre bottles of Inches Stonehouse Cider).
Rhen there was that night at Glastonbury in 94.
Best night ever, the ground was shaking 😁👍
I love this track! Very much!
Hardly ever a Duff track from Orbital
And yes I might be an old fart but having been with them pretty much from the earliest days these older tracks evoke such fantastic memories and that's what music should do for you.....
#orbital
Love this album! (But Snivelization is my fave;) )
Amazing track
Just beyond beautiful… a cut above the rest, now as it was when it first came out.
I always thought the opening minutes of this track, Dwr Budr and The Girl With The Sun In Her Head would make a great ambient album if they were developed for longer, like a companion piece.
Anyway, please reissue the vinyl!
I forgot this track was cut in half.. gotta hear pt2 now !
Part 2s betta
you know this was supposed to be the original soundtrack for hellraiser!!!!!!!! but clive barker went with a band called coil instead....
My favourite album after middle of nowhere
Such an amazing album
I ised to hav this tape ....dang i gotta get it again
Please release this album on vinyl for a 25th anniversary. My original copy is battered.
Sonic lush
>The Dulcimer sound took a long time and effort to make the sample
You couldn't ask Lisa Gerrard to come round with hers in tow?
no... its a patch on the jupiter 8.
I've been a big fan for many years. If you'd like some constructive criticism rather than toadying, I'd say part 1 is the perfect build-up and intro for part 2, but goes on a bit. I'm just waiting for part 2 to start. 😀
Still faultless though. 👍
nasty album would lisren tot it asa a full in 1996
