One of my fav groups to listen to is Orbital. I have heard, and like, a lot of their music. My question for all those who know what Orbital sounds like is this....Are there any other groups out there that sound like them? My fav songs by them are The Sinner, Halcyon On and On, and Dwr Bdr (I think it's called that), and Speed Freak, plus a few others that I can't remember the name of. So if you know any groups like Orbital or if there is some group that you think just kicks @ss then let me know. Thanks....

Right on! Orbital is amazing. A couple of my friends and I personally think that Halcyon was written by god. That song is perfect. The live version off of Insides is even better with that mix of Bon Jovi and Belinda Carlisle. "Shot through the heart, do you know what that's worth? You give heaven a bad name." Plus you can organize that about 5 other ways.
But anyways, when I'm all done with Orbital I like to turn to Underworld and BT. Underworld is very much like Orbital, and if you want a place to start, their latest "Beaucoup Fish" is great. "Everything, Everything" is even newer, but it's just a live show of Beaucoup Fish plus some older stuff, but still really great and the DVD is even better. You can't count out their old stuff either. I have cd's from them that go back to 94. BT isn't quite like those 2, but somewhat falls in that category. I personally like "Ima" which is a very mellow and earthy techno. Another is "Movement in Still Life", which is a great rollercoaster ride of flowing music. Starts out hard, gets weird, and ends very peacefully.
