I agree. I think the good Professor should get back to his roots and start playing some new music. In fact, I think these "essentials" shouldnt be all in a row like this.
BSS is just bandwagon jumping
About Prof's Orbital show though, I enjoyed it and for the casual listener it was probably a good show but for an Orbital freak it wasnt that cutting edge. Covering 55mins of the show with 3 tracks (OTS p1/p2, semi-detached/attached, lush p1/p2) didnt really help either. Neither did only playing 3 tracks from post 1996 (Patchwork Guilt / Initiation / Style). Here ends the only real criticism I had.
BB might alway say "if people don't like it there is always the off-button or, better still, they can do their own (and take the flack as and when required)", but no BB, they cant do their own as not everyone is priveliged enough to have their own radio show and I didnt say that I didnt like it so I'm under no such obligation.
I will be happy to provide Professor with all the Orbital he needs if he wishes to do another less mainstream show though and in fact would look forward to it.
You can't please all of the people all of the time so pleasing some of them some of the time by catering to different tastes with different shows may be the answer.
