System 7 is a British ambient/techno/dance band. For legal reasons, they are known as
777 in North America.
Steve Hillage &
Miquette Giraudy, both formerly of
Gong, formed System 7 after hearing the likes of
The Orb playing Hillage's 1979
"ambient record Rainbow Dome Musick". They soon became part of the underground dance scene in London. While Hillage and Giraudy form the core of System 7, it is more of an extended collaboratory project with artists such as
Carl Craig,
Laurent Garnier,
Derrick May,
Alex Paterson [of
The Orb], and [b]Youth[/b]. Unusually for an ambient/techno/dance band, System 7 makes extensive use of Hillage's guitars.
Hillage and Giraudy have also launched a spin-off project called
Mirror System,
"the new vehicle for developing the chilled & downtempo dimensions of our music." They have also worked under the name
Groovy Intent and
Loophead.
