Electronic dance music pioneers the Orb will release a new album—their first since 2012's Lee "Scratch" Perry collaboration The Orbserver in the Star House—this summer. It's called Moonbuilding 2703 AD and it's out June 23 on Kompakt. The album marks the Orb's return to Kompakt, following 2005's Okie Dokie It's the Orb on Kompakt.
