The Orb's Adventures Beyond the Ultraworld is the debut studio album by the English electronic music group the Orb, released as a double album on 2 April 1991 by Big Life. It is a segued, progressive record evoking a psychedelic trip which draws from various genres and incorporates a huge number of samples and sound effects. Much of the album was recorded after founding member Jimmy Cauty left the group, leaving Alex Paterson as the central member, with additional contributions by Kris Weston, Andy Falconer and several others. The album was preceded by the charting 1989 single "A Huge Ever Growing Pulsating Brain That Rules from the Centre of the Ultraworld," which closes the album, 1990 single "Little Fluffy Clouds," which opens the album, and 1991 single "Perpetual Dawn," which opens the second half of the album. The Orb's Adventures Beyond the Ultraworld was well received in Europe and reached number 29 on the UK Albums Chart. It has since been credited with popularizing the UK's nascent ambient house movement.
