William Orbit's new EP 'Purdy' comes out this September 21st, featuring several top-class remixes of the lush, layered original.
The track is taken from William's new album 'My Oracle Lives Uptown', which met with considerable acclaim earlier in 2009.
Biog: short version
William Orbit has been in high demand as a producer and remixer for well over a decade, most famously working with Madonna on her 1998 album 'Ray Of Light', as well as Blur, Britney Spears, Sugababes, Pink and scores of other artists.
Although 'My Oracle Lives Uptown' is probably William Orbit's most immediate album, it's so subtly layered that it only reveals itself fully after a number of plays. And like his other solo albums, it will surely be resistant to the ageing process. His vision is idiosyncratic and original enough to not to have to try to play catch-up with anyone else, which gives his music a curiously timeless feel.
