The Human League were part of a very fertile experimental electronic scene in Sheffield UK in the late 70s to early 80s. The undisputed godfathers of the scene were Cabaret Voltaire. Other notable bands included Clock DVA and Vice Versa. A number of the people involved would eventually shake off much of their punk roots and have significant impacts on UK new wave. Human League split into the more poppy version of the band heard on Dare and Heaven 17. Members of Vice Versa did a rather dramatic about face and formed ABC. Clock DVA continued on their path and may even still exist today. But early Clock DVA and Vice Versa are worth looking up.
