Close

The Orb's music on Kompakt featured Thomas Fehlmann as the primary creative figure, "inhibiting Alex Paterson's whimsical impulses".^[2] Because of this, the album was considerably more focused, even, and less "goofy" than Cydonia and Bicycles & Tricycles.^[2][4] Fehlmann's trademark hypnotic loops and delays made him the center of Okie Dokie production and, according to Pitchfork Media, made it "difficult to say where [Paterson] is in the picture".^[5] Besides Paterson and Fehlmann, Okie Dokie featured Ulf Lohmann as a co-writer on a track as well as Schneider TM performing vocals for another.^[6] The Orb's releases with Kompakt gained the Orb back much of their musical credibility with the press and showed that the Orb could "age gracefully".^[4][6]
