That doesn't make much sense to me. The live shows are suppose to be explosive and upbeat I thought whereas the more ambient/downtempo/chill was for listening at home. I can't imagine everyone just standing still watching the stage at an UW show...

I suspect the sentiment reflected in that poll result is based on the frustration with the Greatest Hits-style setlists Underworld performed in 2007. The shows were unmistakably banging and danceable, but some fans on this board were nevertheless disappointed. A downtempo set would be a clear antidote, which is why, I think, that answer came up so frequently in the poll.
