These dudes helped sell a lot of synthesizers. They made that shizz look easier than it really was.

Agreed. Time has shown that they were head of their time. My favorite being the "Coming to America" theme!... I kid.😂😂😂 They were mindblowing. They actually interviewed for my local TV station in VA when this was popping. Very cutting edge stuff musically. Always loved them.

[@djceejaay]

I would not have made it through the 80s without Mic and Dave. When I started being a DJ in 1984, a lot of my friends clowned me because I loved synth-pop...nu wave...British, Euro ands slick 80s music and cuts from groups Kraftwerk, Scritti Politti, The System. Although I loved playing R&B, dance, house my forte was synth-pop from groups like Human League, Information Society, Robert Palmer, Scritti Politti, Sting, The System, OMD, Talk Talk and so many more. This cut by The System is still a cut that I play during my sets for Old School nights. Man ❤️I love this joint and I love The System 🔥

Phil Collins once said that the synthesizer, rhythm and programming on “Sussudio” was done by David Frank. He also contributed to Chaka Khan's "I Feel For You", Scritti Politti's album Cupid & Psyche 85 and on Steve Winwood's album Back in the High Life arranging the live horns on the album as well as the synth horns on the #1 hit "Higher Love".

I feel for these youngsters today who wasn't even born during this time in the 80s, you had Michael, Prince, Madonna, The Police, Sade and a lot more including The System, that's all great talent right there. It's kind of sad that mainstream music today will never probably have this same feel-good feeling like it did in that era.

[@Dtown96]

This band was extremely influential in the development of MIDI. They have lent their talents to other hits as well, like Phil Collins’ “Sussudio” and Mtume “Juicy Fruit”. The keyboardist is extremely slept on, even Yamaha credits him for essentially creating the electronic “R&B” genre.
