THE ORB & SYSTEM 7 REUNITE FOR A SERIES OF RARE EXCLUSIVE LIVE SHOWS!

Two legendary forces of electronic psychedelia return to the stage together for a limited run of immersive audiovisual events.

After years apart on the live circuit, pioneering electronic visionaries The Orb and System 7 are reuniting for a special series of rare and exclusive performances - a historic convergence of ambient architecture, psychedelic techno, dub science and cosmic dancefloor energy. Having already done a few shows in London, Bristol and Bethesda - the two giants and bands old friends thought it was time to do some more!

Celebrated for reshaping the landscape of chillout, ambient house and transcendent electronic music, both acts have long shared a deep creative kinship stretching back to the golden age of UK underground culture. These upcoming performances mark the first time in years that the two iconic projects will appear together in such an intimate and carefully curated format.

Audiences can expect extended journeys through classic material, deep improvisation, hypnotic visuals and moments of pure sonic exploration - blending The Orb's legendary widescreen ambient dub with System 7's futuristic techno-psychedelic pulse. The collaboration promises a rare opportunity to witness two groundbreaking acts whose influence can still be felt across today's electronic and festival scenes.

Emerging from distinct but interconnected corners of the electronic underground, The Orb became synonymous with expansive ambient storytelling and downtempo experimentation, while System 7 fused techno, trance, psychedelia and live instrumentation into a uniquely organic electronic experience. Together, they helped define an era of fearless sonic innovation that continues to inspire generations of producers and performers worldwide.

With only a limited number of dates planned, these shows are expected to attract fans from across the globe. Further details, locations and ticket information will be announced soon.
