From his own bands the Buggles and Art of Noise, to working with Dollar, ABC, Yes, Frankie Goes to Hollywood, Grace Jones, Seal and many more. His sonic identity is etched all over these records and its a sound that continues to thrill people to this day. This video looks into the methods used and the use of new technology that enabled whole new soundscapes to be created.

    Note: the Lexicon 480L debuted in 1986. If Horn was using a Lexicon unit in 1982-1983 to record Yes, it would most likely be a Lexicon 224 (released 1978).

      Yes, it doesn't even sound like a 480 either which is more 'real' sounding. The 224 is more spooky and more characterful and one of Trevor's favourites. Also AMS-RMX16 would be used a lot too.

    One minor clarification about ABC's Lexicon of Love. Trevor and the team programmed the tight version of the live recordings and then got the band to mimic / rerecord to the tight version. So the band played / recorded the teams version of the album.

    Good stuff, nice piece. I was at the Music Producers Guild Award night in 2014 in a hotel in South London where Trevor was presented by Seal with a lifetime achievement award from the MPG. He'd been a hero of mine for decades and one of the key reasons why I always wanted to be a producer.
    I was on the fringe of a conversation between him, Steve Levine, and two other known producers and didnt have a damn clue whether to say anything or just keep schtum and watch and learn. And thats when I noticed that he was constantly looking around, while he was talking to these other guys, but it was like he was looking around to make sure he always knew where the escape door was, if he had to leg it. It was a really odd thing, to see him talking to people but furtively looking elsewhere every three to five seconds. After he walked away, I asked one of the other producers who I had been stood next to and knew a lot better,, am I seeing things or did he really just do that? And the reply came back, "oh dont worry, he does that to everybody, even me. Its just Trevor being Trevor"
    Nonetheless, he is the most prolific and industry changing producer the UK has had since Sir George Martin, that is undisputed. He and Lipson inspired a generation of producers, I know I'm definitely one of them.

    When you scratch the surface of these huge icons, you invariably find there’s a team standing behind them, who contributed greatly to a lot of the things the icon is famous for. Of course Trevor made it happen and set a standard for them all to shoot for - he obviously called the shots. But a lot of those iconic sounds were created by his collaborators. The story behind Frankie’s Relax is emblematic: "And Trevor was blown away by what they did". Yeah , that was pretty much the end result they came up with that evening. (Except they wouldn't have gotten there without Trevor's patience and perfectionism).
    But yeah, the big picture is Trevor was one of those responsible for the sound of 80s. Along with Hugh Padgham and a few others. And both of those guys influenced music production way beyond the decade they're famous for.

    Never been a producer, more a consumer of music and I’ve loved Trevor Horn and ZTT team from the ABC / Frankie days. I was mesmerised by the sequencers and vast range of unusual, yet funky sounds he could produce. Later, he teamed up with my favourite band from that period - Simple Minds - and that cemented him as a legend in my book. Looking back through my music collection from that period Horn’s name appears on virtually all of the tunes I bought. Always said if I had been in a band I’d have done everything in my power to get him to produce! 😂

    My scratching sounded whack! Can I have your 808. Trevor Horn was years ahead of the times. Just think what he could do now with all the latest technologies. He is a legend in the electronic music industry. We don't need to go back to far, yet the truth will be manipulated to suit.

      It's better understood if you're were already aware of Trevor Horn's work right back to hearing The Buggles for the first time in the 80's. His work embraced digital, sequencing and recording technology in a way nobody else was doing at that time

      @@mixingmasteringonline I think he’s just wearing a jock. I recall seeing footage of him with Yes performing Tempus Fugit and he was wearing just these little short shorts and nothing else while the rest of the band were in their 70’s garb. Squire, Howe, and White seemed to have stoic expressions of “I am politely ignoring this,” as they played. I felt embarrassed for him. But every genius has their quirks I guess.

    What a wonderful video. Such a great attention to the small details that most people will have absolutely no idea of the significance and relevance of. My takeaway other than Horn's brilliance is that the Fairlight made 80s music as great as the DX7 made it awful. Certainly there are good uses of both, but the DX7 was far more abused. The descendants of the Fairlight -- the Emulator and MPC...far more important to modern music than FM synthesis. Sorry Sega Genesis fans.

    • @mixingmasteringonline

      @@mixingmasteringonline Don't get me wrong, I love the DX7 even though I got rid of mine as well as my DX7 II...but the Fairlight and the Emulator...they are what made 80s music wonderful. FM synthesis and DX7 so abused during that period. Fairlight shines through that decade. ABCs How to Be a Millionaire is a classic. Here in the states WaxTrax abused the Fairlight to a terrific degree during this time. Ministry's Twitch produced by Adrian Sherwood, such a pivotal turning point for music on mainstream labels. EDIT: To thank you again for directing attention towards Horn. I had no idea of his tremendous influence.
