you know the way the lads did not want to be compaired to orbital being brothers and that. well i have been listening to a lot of orbital lately and there is a good few tracks in orbital's back cat mainly on singles and that, that really could pass as boc tracks in my eyes and ears.
what you guys think?

DAMN! Are you serious?!

novayshun, give your head a wobble!

"The Girl With The Sun In Her Head"

One great piece of music!!

i love the track "Mock Tudor" on the Style single. FUCKIN ACE TRACK!!!!

and i love "Times Fly" too.

No one can deny the power of "The Middle of Nowhere". No one.

Especially "Know Where to Run".

halcyon + on + on is a classic track

i really liked their in sides and orbital 2 albums.

just got into orbital within the past month and a half... only album I've heard is In Sides, and I liked it a lot. parts sound a bit dated, but still top shelf.

Chime.. is their masterwork!! Orbital rule!!

impact (the world is burning)

I kinda lost intererst after the Brown album but live they were the absolute shit. Two Alesis MMT8's and off they went. Chime is a classic, Impact (Earth's Burning) at Glastonbury '94 was awesome, Halcyon (original) rules. They were very, very good.

Care to name the tracks that you thought were similar Dubbo?

couldn't agree with you more, i'm a fan eversince their first album in 1993, they have lot's of 12 inches that are amazing and i've seen them live a few times, very good and they have some tracks that remind me of BoC. the "blue album" [2004] is the latest i bought from them and very good.

One of my favourite tracks from Orbital is "Farenheit 3D3" on "Mutations" a 12" from 1992.

I remember listening to Halycon repeatedly in highschool, but that was the only song I ever picked up by them. I had a feeling that they didn't have too many tricks up their sleeve to keep me interested. Perhaps I was too quick to judge...i'm going to have to check some of the other stuff out now.
