Celebrated ambient techno Brits System 7 – Steve Hillage and Miquette Giraudy - will release a compilation of their ‘best bits’ from eight core years of studio production during the 1990s.
Classics, released on System 7’s own label A-Wave, rounds up 12 songs from between 1992 and 2000, many previously vinyl-only. The new package gains a digital release via Beatport on December 13, before a full commercial release next year (January 10.)
System 7 championed an ambient, guitar-driven techno sound in the Nineties with its influences including everyone from The Orb to Detroit bastions Derrick May and Carl Craig. The retrospective actually features May and Craig, not to mention The Orb’s Alex Paterson and Gallic charmer Laurent Garnier.
