U.F.Orb is the second studio album by ambient house/techno group The Orb that reached #1 on the UK Album Chart. It featured an edited version of The Orb’s single “Blue Room”. Noted graphic design group The Designers Republic designed the cover art for the album.

Orb member Kris Weston integrated his technical and creative expertise with Alex Paterson’s Eno-influenced ambience on U.F.Orb, creating “drum and bass rhythms” with “velvet keyboards” and “rippling synth lines”. U.F.Orb reached #1 on the UK Albums Chart to the shock of critics, who were surprised that fans had embraced what journalists considered to be progressive rock. Heavily influenced by The Orb and U.F.Orb in particular, many trip-hop groups sprang up emulating The Orb’s “chill-out blueprint”. U.F.Orb expresses The Orb’s fascination with alien life with its bizarre sound samples and in the album’s title itself. The album’s single, “Blue Room”, is itself a reference to the supposed Blue Room of Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, which was heavily investigated as a possible UFO evidence holding room.

Some say that the album’s best song is “Blue Room”, an 18-minute piece(there’s a 40-minute version that comprises the entire single, too), that features bass playing by Jah Wobble and guitar by coproducer Steve Hillage.
