Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark (OMD) used footage filmed at the nuclear power stations at their recent concert with the Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra.

A recording of the event will be brought out on DVD on December 14.

At the June concert, OMD performed 'The Energy Suite' in front of screens showing striking and haunting video images of Heysham and four other North West power stations.

OMD front man Andy McCluskey approached Heysham in 2007 for permission to film.

Renowned video director Hambi Haralambous then visited to shoot views of the stations inside the perimeter fence and also within the turbine hall.

The final video shots were edited and designed by Hambi, Andy and Peter Saville, a Manchester-based artist/designer who worked with Factory Records and OMD in the 80s and 90s.

Andy said: "The Energy Suite installation project grew out of a fascination I shared with Peter Saville of the aesthetics of industrial architecture. We have been afforded the opportunity to film these incredible sites and record the sounds of their environment, and present them accompanied by music inspired by what we have seen and heard."

OMD had several Top 20 hits in the 80s and 90s including 'Enola Gay', 'Joan of Arc' and 'Sailing on the Seven Seas'.

Ray Conroy, from Morecambe, said: "I was at the concert and it was something else seeing it up on the big screen with the backing of the orchestra."
