Our Take

Ah, SYSTEM 7's latest offering, "Encantado." How to describe this album? Well, it's like taking a trip through a sonic kaleidoscope while riding a psychedelic unicorn.

From the opening track, "Mystic River," you're instantly transported to another dimension where the beats are infectious, the melodies are mesmerizing, and the overall vibe is pure bliss. This is not just music, this is an experience.

Tracks like "Sunburst" and "Moon Dance" showcase the duo's mastery of blending electronic and organic sounds, creating a soundscape that feels both futuristic and ancient at the same time. It's like if Daft Punk and Enya had a love child, and that love child decided to start a band.

But don't be fooled by the dreamy vibes, there's also a sense of urgency and energy throughout the album, especially on tracks like "Galactic Groove" and "Starlight Serenade." It's like the universe itself is dancing to the music, and you can't help but join in.

In conclusion, "Encantado" is a masterpiece of modern electronica, a journey through space and time that will leave you feeling uplifted and inspired. So put on your headphones, close your eyes, and let SYSTEM 7 take you on a musical adventure like no other. Trust me, you won't regret it.

Verdict: 9.5/10, pure magic.

About the artist

System 7

SYSTEM 7, the legendary electronic music duo comprised of Steve Hillage and Miquette Giraudy, have been pushing the boundaries of the genre for over three decades. With a discography that spans nine studio albums and collaborations with artists such as Derrick May and The Orb, SYSTEM 7 have solidified their reputation as pioneers of the ambient techno sound. Hillage, with his hypnotic guitar riffs, and Giraudy, with her intricate synth work, have created a sonic universe that is both otherworldly and dancefloor-ready. Their live performances are a sight to behold, with swirling visuals and pulsating beats that transport audiences to another dimension. Their latest album, "Cafe Seven", is a testament to their continued innovation and creativity. Tracks like "Sunburst" and "Altitude" showcase their signature blend of lush melodies and pulsing rhythms, while collaborations with electronic heavyweights like Plaid and Eat Static add an extra layer of depth to the already multidimensional sound. SYSTEM 7 are not just musicians, they are sonic architects, constantly building and evolving their sound. Whether you're a longtime fan or a newcomer to the electronic music scene, SYSTEM 7 are guaranteed to take you on a journey through the cosmos - one that you won't soon forget.
