I heart Orbital. But, I think I like The Orb better just because I grew up liking them first.

Seen Orbital twice now, the best one was at the millenium Cream event in Liverpool - they brought in new year with Chime played at the same time as Big Ben's chimes. Awsome.
Btw Chris, Orbital never had a DJ. The two brothers used to do PA's instead of mixing - might be worth checking to see if they are doing a PA or just mixing. They did officially split up so not sure whats going on.

Very great musical group.
There song from the Hackers movie 'Halcyon on & on' was a brilliant ambient track.
i also liked another track by them what i can't think of right now, but they sadly split few years ago

I've got a few of their songs on my computer but never really listened to anything but Belfast, which is freaking awesome, and The Saint. I don't remember how the other songs go...
Off-topic: Sneaker Pimps are great. :)

'Chime'!! an immense dance instrumental. i remember having the pleasure of listening to this around it's 1st release and thinking 'this is a ground breaking sound'. 1990ish??. gee, where did the time (and my hair) go!
