(Sanctuary) Grammy Award-winning writer/producer and contemporary music visionary,

William Orbit, returns with an eagerly anticipated new album �Hello Waveforms� on Sanctuary Records out on February 7th.

His first solo release since 2000�s critically acclaimed �Pieces in a Modern Style�, the new album was performed and produced by William. �Hello Waveforms� is ethereal, ambient, subtle and distinctive in style, fusing strong melodies with electronic synths to produce his definitive signature sound.

Recorded in London and America, the new album features a collection of collaborations and influences - the track �Humming Chorus� is taken from Madame Butterfly, �Spiral� features the Sugababes and Kenna on vocals, while Finley Quaye plays acoustic guitar on the dreamlike �Who Owns The Octopus�.

William has also reunited with his former Strange Cargo band member Laurie Mayer, who plays piano and synthesizer on �Surfin� and provides vocals on the tracks �Bubble Universe� and �Who Owns the Octopus?�.

The full track listing is: �Sea Green�, �Humming Chorus�, �Surfin�, �You Know Too Much About Flying Saucers�, �Spiral�, �Who Owns The Octopus?�, �Bubble Universe�, �Fragmosia�, �Firebrand� �They Live In The Sky� and �Colours From Nowhere�.

An artist who individually determined the new age of modern mixer/producer credibility, William�s most high profile projects to date include his contribution to Madonna�s �Ray of Light� album - on which he produced, co-wrote and performed - U2�s �Electrical Storm�, Blur�s �13� and his smash-hit single �Barber�s Adagio For Strings�. In 2001 he performed as part of Barbican�s celebrated Elektronik Festival.
