Except that GC are so schizophrenic that the stuff they do in different styles is dramatically different, not to mention pretty spot-on. In the context of their d&b stuff they hardly count as a "techno band", their d&b work is a lot more than "dabbling" as Andrew C. expressed it (btw. I don't think he was bearing GC in mind), just as they are by no means an "electro crew" when they do ambient remixes.

Yeah, fair comment, but we were trying to talk about orbital, and try finding any jungle artist who would quote anything off snivilization as an influence - I doubt it, though I'm prepared to be corrected. I suspect that the only influential tracks of Orbitals in this respect would be "Chime" and maybe Belfast etc. and that's going back so far that it's almost at the same level as junglists quite genuinely quoting Derrick May or early Black Dog as an influence.
