Teebs takes The Orb's "Moonbuilding 2703 AD" into deep space

The Orb has announced new tour dates in support of the duo's latest album, Moonbuilding 2703 AD. After touring the U.S. through September, they'll release a Moonbuilding remix EP on October 2nd. Don't expect a predictable list of remix artists either, based on the first single - a slowly unfurling piece of astral funk courtesy of Teebs.

While Teebs' own tracks usually explore one idea for a few short minutes, here he takes on a 13-minute juggernaut, cutting its length in half, yet still managing to cram in a lot of ideas in six minutes. It's surprising how well his music blends with The Orb's; both "Moonbuilding 2703 AD" and Teebs' remix are entirely human at heart, they're just leaving Earth's atmosphere at a high rate of speed. Check the remix and tour dates below, and grab the full remix EP October 2nd on Kompakt.
