They sounded pretty experimental to me when I bought their green album
when it was first released (1991?). Nowadays they may not sound that
way... the same way a Kraftwerk album doesn't sound very innovative if
you pretend that it was created in 1997 instead of 1978.

"Well-engineered", "feel-good" and "simplistic" don't preclude something
from being fresh or innovative.
(FYI, I have lost interest in Orbital since the Brown album though. I'm
not sure why, and don't know if it has anything to do with lack of
innovation. I know that I have always enjoyed Hardfloor - even though I
can spot their formulaic sound a mile-off.)
