Info :
Orbis Records is probably one of those underground labels Belgium never had until now.
The label will provide dark, deep and stripped down hypnotic techno music as wide as the box can get.

'Thinking outside the box is our priority' is possibly the most used sentence when it comes to label descriptions but we have no limits. Our priority is bringing deep, hypnotic and stripped down music that will please the partygoer as well as the record collector.

Our first release contains four tracks, created by Mr. Mau, that you can let loose on a crowd late at night. 

Mr. Mau (Dries Bultynck) is a Belgian producer who knows what he wants. He has been playing his part in the Belgian underground techno scene a long time now and remains one of the few deejays that is still loyal to his sound: Dark, deep and hypnotic with a personal touch.

His mission is to constantly innovate himself, his deejay sets as well as his releases... and that will show in this release. Those that know his work on both Forteana and Labrynth Records, will get another release true to his sound. Familiar but again, different.

ìThe Chained Rythmî is a pure dancefloor corker. Dark and straightforward. 

ìWhen All Is Leftî drags you into a higher state of consciousness and knocks you out of your 

rhythm at the right moment making you forget what planet you were from. 

ìThey Knew What Was Comingî is the most experimental track of the release. A hypnotic melody combined with an offbeat rhythm accompanied by a deep bassline make the big picture a breathtaking track.

At last we have a very handy loop that you just have to try out: ìWhat Ifî

I think 'the chained rhythm' is my favourite. I like the job overall, sounds raw/analogue enough and is solid builded to desereve been called good techno! so cheers, is a really good job. The loop sounds intresting as well as the other tracks, but as said before. I like it all.

Kr!z (BE - Token Records)
Cool release. Would buy it if it came out on vinyl. A little bit too deep for my sets but this is definitely what a Mills or a Hood would play.

Core mission: 
Transcend mediocre electronic music.
Orbis Records and projects like Orbis X, Orbis LST, ...

"The press part"

Standard records are often too mediocre. The average track has been wrongfully given to much attention in order to achieve maximum income per release. Since digital music has been more available than ever, standards have been low as never seen before.

Some tracks are brilliant and special, others aren't worth it. Not even to get a digital format. Many tracks have been wrongfully given to much attention & have been falsely setting the tone for the new good. Good is not good enough!

We truly believe that music should be treated honestly and no one should lower the bar.
As a label, you should set an example. You should feel obligated to find the best mastering out there for your tracks. You should give honest feedback to new artists. You should define quality at the highest level possible.

We're extremely transparent in our communication in order to give you the most uncensored information about the other side of the music industry.

We aim to release the best we can get in our current time frame.
We don't settle with good enough. We're here to make a difference and help other to do so in any way we possibly can.

We want to transcend mediocre electronic music. We will do so in any way we can and help other people as well, in any format or any product possible. We happen to start with hypnotic & stripped down electronic music.
"The Orbis label"

Orbis Records is probably one of those underground deep techno labels Belgium never had until now. The label will provide dark, deep and stripped down hypnotic techno music as wide as the box can get.

'Thinking outside the box is our priority' is possibly the most used sentence when it comes to label descriptions but we have no limits. Our priority is bringing deep, hypnotic and stripped down techno music that will please the partygoer as well as the record collector.

"The Orbis X sublabel"

Orbis X is a sublabel of Orbis Records and will be mainly focusing on softer yet often usable as DJ material for the broader mass interested in Electronic music. This sublabel is an extension of Orbis Records’ softer, more melodical and experimental side. Music will be ranging from house, dub, chicago over melodic acid and even breaks. Not any track makes it to this sublabel if it can't stand on its own and stand the test of time!

"The Orbis LST sublabel"

more soon.

"The simple part"

We aren't just another fish in the sea, not 'some' label that will release every week a load of crappy tracks to get that monthly cashflow. Instead we're scheduling our releases every 3 to up to 6 months (or maybe even more) depending on the time to find or create music that fits our vision.

It all stands and falls with the quality and character of the music in a wide perspective. Innovation, sound and emotion are the main driving forces behind our passion.

Music & artwork will be our #1 priority in order to move and touch all you collectors and fans of the deep & stripped sound out there !
