About Systematic
One of the first signings to Metallica drummer Lars Ulrich's Music Company label, California's Systematic appeared with a high-profile stamp of approval. The melodic metal quartet began with singer/guitarist Tim Narducci and guitarist Adam Ruppel in 1996, when the pair began writing together and cobbling together their initial demo. Adding former Pro-Pain guitarist Nick St. Denis on bass and drummer Shaun Bannon the following year, a new demo caught the ear of Ulrich, who soon offered Systematic a record contract. Somewhere in Between was issued in 2001 and was followed by touring slots on the Ozzfest and Tattoo the Earth festival tours. The tolls of touring led the band to a new rhythm section with Johnny Bechtel on bass and former Slayer drummer Paul Bostaph on drums. The new lineup released an Internet-only version of Blue Öyster Cult's "Career of Evil" as a teaser for their next album, 2003's Pleasure to Burn. ~ Wade Kergan, All Music Guide

Trompeta SIS |
| Be it the underground nature of dance music nowadays or a general inability to produce chart friendly tracks, but the six month decamp of the world's most hardened clubbers and DJ's to Ibiza doesn't seem to uncover as many cross-over records as it did a few years ago. However, despite nothing like Moloko's "Sing It Back" or Spiller's "Groove Jet" being unearthed this year, there has been plenty of exciting club tracks keeping the dance fraternity happy – the king of which has been SIS's "Trompeta". A favourite at Cocoon, which won "Best Ibiza Night" at the recent DJ Awards, and a staple in sets of Luciano and Ricardo Villalobos, who incidentally shared the award for "Best Ibiza Set" at the same awards show; “"Trompeta" has successfully burrowed its way into the minds of Ibiza holiday makers and now looks set to flourish with the season's close and the tracks official release. Taking a sizeable chunk from Balkan Beat Box's "Bulgarian Chicks" and coupling it with a clattering kick/ hi hat shuffle and speaker busting bottom end, "Trompeta's" repetitive Trumpet led hooks have made it an instantly memorable dance hit at odds to the thoughtful techno that often surrounds it on Ibiza's cooler club nights. However, like last year's dance cross over "Heater", this track quickly divides opinion as the simple hooks and general quirkiness of what makes the record appealing also makes it unpalatable to some clubbers and DJ's striving to stay on the cutting edge. Love it or hate it, this record has emerged as one of the most popular in the last six months. | |
