Orbital 1 and 2: A mix of "hard" and "soft" techno, with 2 being on the
slightly harder side (Halcyon being the only soft, more "ambient" one, as
I remember, besides the intro/outro things).
Snivilization: More like Orbital 2 (mostly harder techno)
In Sides: IMHO, their very best - much, much more in the ambient realms.
There is not one bad song on this one. AND, if you hurry, you can get it
with the 2nd "bonus CD". Beautiful, beautiful music. I love it.
However, if you prefer their harder stuff, you may not like In Sides as
much.

3 or 4, IMO. Since you seem to be veering toward the ambient realm, I
guess In Sides *would* be good. :)
