Well, we DO expect "cutting edge" techno from RDJ & Mike P. (at least I do).
So if it actually IS cutting edge, then it's also what we expected, which
makes it not what it is (or something).

U.F.Orb has a track consisting only of the sound of an elephant having a
shit - bet you didn't diss that album when it came out.

* Scene 1 *
Setting: modest living room, suburb. TV shows cricket testmatch with sound
low. Man sits in chair reading newspaper, lightly nodding his head to sound
of new Orbital album playing on stereo mini tower in the corner. Wife sits
on couch, restlessly leafing through copies of Muzik, NME, Jockey Slut,
Smash Hits, Option, The Wire and Melody Maker, frown getting deeper all the
time.
wife: >everyone realise that they can't argue with RDJ -
man: mmm-mm
wife: >you should really coun't your blessings that you are alive at the
moment to witness the legend first hand.
man: mmmmmm
wife: >If you think that I over-rate him as the most important figure in
contemporary
techno... (man snorts loudly; starts picking nose) .. then go and buy some
happy hardcore or something.
man is silently reading paper
wife: john?
man: mm-mmmmm
wife: john, are you listening?
man: yes darling, ofcourse (turns page; resumes reading)
wife: john, as I was saying...
man: mmm-mmm
Cut to TV screen: program has changed to TOTP where Gary "Take That" Barlow
performs his first solo single. Rows of little girls scream, laugh, cry and
faint.

Like Cunt and Phlaps? Like, REALLY intelligent dance music. The first two
Caustic Window 12" both had some very silly songs - a lot more silly than
the stuff on Mike & Rich's album.
What early stuff anyway? There's not two records that sound the same.
