Orb Gettarr
ANNOUNCEMENT:
IF LINKS ARE NOT WORKING, DON'T PANIC! They will be re-posted soon. Thanks for your patience!
Orb Gettarr will no longer be contributing to Opsound, as TPL Studio is going out of business. (See BIO below for more details)
An eclectic blend of ambient, dark ambient, new age, progressive, acoustic, avante garde, film music, sound track, and what I like to call 'lucid techno'...
Some of it even defies hard-line classification, really- let's call it 'Orb-ish', and leave it at that...
I have invented a new category which I call 'Lucid Techno' (taking conventional techno stylings to the next level)...
In an aside note- if you want to use these files in your project, please have enough decency to contact me by e-mail first. (99 percent of the time, you will get a yes, unless you want to use it for pornography or violence.)
Due to the high level of spam, all e-mails should now be re-directed to orbgetar at gmail dot com

ANNOUNCEMENT:
After 11 years, Tetragrammaton Productions Ltd is closing its doors. For those of you still wishing to use Orb Gettarr's copyleft music, the links will still work until April of 2012, but there will be no more forthcoming music from Artist Orb Gettarr, who is turning over his entire catalog to fellow producer and compatriot, M. Avery Mann, CEO of Metatron's Cube Productions. After April of 2012, the links will be re-posted from Mr. Mann's website on Opsound, so there will be a minimal period when these links are down.
Thank you all for your support over the years!
