"Tonight in Belfast" is a piece of electronic music perfection, with DJ Helen blending David Holmes' remix of "Belfast" with Manchester street poet Mike Garry's track "Tonight." Mike's spoken piece brings a heartfelt human connection to the original's uplifting ambience, resulting in a passionate swirling rhythm of thoughts and emotions. The track is accompanied by a new music video by long-time collaborators Remote Viewer featuring Mike Garry traversing a dystopian British urban wasteland before beaming up into the 'tonight'.
The new single from Orbital, David Holmes & DJ Helen featuring Mike Garry, "Tonight in Belfast" is available now via London Records. This brand new track re-interpolates their 1991 classic "Belfast" and heralds the start of a new campaign celebrating Orbital's eponymous debut album (know as the 'Green Album'), set for reissue across multiple formats on April 19 ahead of a headline UK tour, which will see the pioneering duo perform the seminal album in its entirety for the very first time.
