世界軌跡樂團的英文Orbit是軌道之意而Folks是指各地民族傳統舞蹈音樂之意,原創的本意是因為來自比利時的吳馬丁(Martijn Vanbuel)從小熱愛各地傳統樂曲,這個樂團的創立就是希望運用軌道的追尋，將失落各地的民族傳統音樂一一尋回。創作者吳馬丁(Martijn Vanbuel)在尋回的過程當中，不斷的加入自己本身爵士音樂背景的元素，再加上自己定居台灣，與台灣本土音樂相互切磋融合，尤其在2年多年前，正式加入台灣知名絲竹空爵士樂團後，受到了許多台灣戲曲及客家民謠的影響,而決定將他歐洲熟知的各地音樂結合加上爵士音樂融合的創作,產生orbit folks的樂團概念。 http://www.orbitfolks.com/
