The Story
The System is an American duo known for their unique blend of electronic music and contemporary R&B. Comprised of vocalist-guitarist Mic Murphy and keyboard wizard David Frank, they crafted a sound that fuses high-tech synthesizers with heartfelt lyrics, coining the term "emotio-electro" to describe their style. With the support of musicians like Paul Pesco on electric guitar and Kris Khellow on keyboards, The System captured the essence of the 80s music scene. Their standout track "Don't Disturb This Groove" showcases their knack for marrying smooth melodies with a danceable beat, making it a staple for fans of the era and a reminder of the innovative spirit that defined their sound.
