System 7

Glastonbury Festival 2003 review

Thursday 7th August 2003


Avalon Stage, Sunday

Not seen them before or heard their music so can't talk track titles or the like. They were excellent, with variety of sound on each 'track'. I believe their music is known as 'psychedelic trance' (forgive me if I am wrong!!) – certainly reminded me of how Pink Floyd could have developed post DSOM if Roger Waters had not become obsessed with The Wall.

System 7

The sound was very tight and together with an excellent coordination of sound and light show.

For those not in the know, System 7 has Steve Hillage - once of Gong (and heavily associated with '70's hippiedom), and famous under his own name as a superb guitarist. He was also the guy responsible for progamming the acts for Glastonbury's first official Dance Tent in '95. Playing with him in System 7 is Miquette Giraudy. They describe themselves as "Ambient Techno" - tho I wouldn't have called this performance (which I saw) "ambient" by any stretch. - Neil.
