System7
Real Name:
Steve Hillage & Miquette Giraudy
Profile:
UK-based techno and ambient outfit System 7 was formed by Hillage and Giraudy in 1990. Rather than simply being a duo, System 7 has always been more of an extended collaboratory project with contributions from a wide range of other artists including such luminaries as Derrick May, Alex Paterson (of The Orb), Carl Craig and Laurent Garnier.
Highly proficient programmers and mixers, System 7 are also one of the few ambient/techno acts to employ the guitar.

Steve & Miquette have evolved the System 7 (or 777 as they
are called in the US) during various eras / phases of music
technology and styles. If you see them play-out in 2002,
your experiencing a briliant energy which has persisted and graced their musical journeys since the early seventies.
The best techno/trance/ambient outfit on the planet.
Always fresh DJs onboard whenever they gig..//ib

Rock Books mistakenly list his date of birth as
August 2,1951,but it is thought that Stonehenge was originally constructed as a stage set for an early Hillage gig and that the Long Barrows in Wiltshire were where he stored his cumbersome,pre digital gear.
