Orbit Service
Constantly pushing the membrane of the musical norm, this Denver-based quartet defies definition, as well as Denver's musical reputation. Four diverse musicians converge to produce an innovative, yet hauntingly familiar resonance. Never banal, never predictable, the music of Orbit Service blends exploratory electronica with traditional instruments, ranging from acoustic guitar to accordian to Tibetan singing bowl.
Orbit Service shared the stage with musical visionary Edward Kaspel in the fall of 2003, and were personally invited by Edward to perform again when the Legendary Pink Dots toured in the summer of 2004.
"Orbit Service`s intricately woven lament - with echoes of Pink Floyd and the Cure - is a wonderful, if haunting, journey."
- Matt Sebastian, Boulder Daily Camera
"With the sounding of a solemn phalanx of horns, Orbit Service begins its lonely patrol around the innermost sanctums of its own dark soul. Don't let the cover art fool you - Twilight is all about the promise of darkness, not revelling in the day that preceded it. From the opening track's entreaty, "Stay close to me / When it's too dark to see / This fountain of endless night" to the mournful beats and soaring plucks of the dirge-like "A Song About Birds," Orbit Service delivers an atmospheric dose of brooding, black hole rock. Eerie strings hang over the album like dark, velveteen drapes, and an ambient moodiness prevails."
- Georgiana Cohen, Splendid Webzine
"Orbit Service found the sweet spot between druggy electronica and acoustic melancholy."
- John LaBriola, Westword Magazine
