Henge, The Orb & System 7

Extra-terrestrial joymongers HENGE have been thrilling audiences across the UK and Europe for over a decade. Renowned for their explosive live shows, they won Best Live Act at the Independent Festival Awards and have built a devoted following through four acclaimed albums, extensive touring and major festival appearances.

Their latest release, Journey to Voltus B, expands HENGE’s intergalactic mythology with a bold concept album featuring a double-groove vinyl that offers two possible endings. The album has earned glowing reviews, sold-out headline shows, and strong BBC 6 Music support from tastemakers including Stuart Maconie, Deb Grant and Craig Charles.

Blending rave energy with prog-rock eccentricity, HENGE’s music is playful, subversive and joyfully unclassifiable, delivering a hopeful message that leaves audiences uplifted and amused.

For 35 years, Alex Paterson has kept The Orb evolving, avoiding nostalgia while launching fresh projects. Their 18th studio album, Prism (2023), was hailed as their best in years, followed by extensive tours. They reunited with David Gilmour for Metallic Spheres In Colour and released a Best of The Orb set in 2025. From their 1988 acid house roots to today, Paterson—now working with Michael Rendall—continues to push ambient and dance music into new realms.

System 7’s Steve Hillage and Miquette Giraudy have had a strong influence on the birth of psychedelic dance music and it’s journey up to the present, forging a unique and bang up-to-date identity on the genre map, in a space where techno, ambient and trance meet. With the added ingredient of Steve’s celebrated psychedelic techno guitar, System 7 reach into their rich ambient and dance catalogue, blended with some new tunes, to create a powerful and exhilarating live set that will take everyone to a higher level. Prepare for lift-off to Planet 7!
