The pioneering synth duo The System, comprised of lead singer Mic Murphy and keyboardist David Frank, rode the '80s wave of emerging synth/MIDI music technology to help lay the foundation for contemporary electronic popular music with their upfront, unapologetic use of synths and intelligent songwriting. Their revolutionary single "You Are in My System" helped to usher in a new era of electronically based pop music, and their #1 hit, "Don't Disturb This Groove," set a permanent place for them in music history.
