Welcome to Wirral Life Magazine .
This month we talk to Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark ( OMD ), an English electronic band formed in Wirral , in 1978 . The group consists of founding duo and principal songwriters Andy McCluskey ( vocals , bass guitar ) and Paul Humphreys ( keyboards , vocals ), along with Martin Cooper ( keyboards , saxophone ) and Stuart Kershaw ( drums ). Regarded as pioneers of electronic music , OMD combined an experimental , minimalist ethos with pop sensibilities , becoming key figures in the emergence of synth-pop ; McCluskey and Humphreys also established the " synth duo " trend in Britain during the 1980s . In the United States , the band were an early presence in the MTVdriven Second British Invasion .
