Their career initially ran from 1989 until 2004, however in 2009 they reformed. The band's name was taken from Greater London's orbital motorway, the M25, which was central to the early rave scene and party network in the South East during the early days of acid house . One of the biggest names in British electronica during the 1990s, Orbital were both critically and commercially successful, and known particularly for their element of live improvisation during shows, a rarity within techno acts. They were initially influenced by early electro and punk rock.
