Camouflage is a Synth-pop act. Their sound grew out of Peter Heppner, Yellow Magic Orchestra, Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark and Ultravox. Those roots explain a lot about how Camouflage arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as De/Vision, Erasure, Alphaville, Wolfsheim and Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Depeche Mode and Wolfsheim, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation.
