Trevor says “now it’s 2018, it’s not an innovative record anymore” truth be told, it’s just as fresh and inspiring as the day I first listened. To be able to make a record like that in the 80’s was cutting edge. No one makes music like that anymore. Today’s music scene is simply sad.

Cooool I sat in for my older brothers band when I was in high school, (just for a rehearsal). I was “the kid“ and very nervous, so I quietly tuned my drum set, by tapping my finger. We started jamming and then at one point one of the guys stopped and said “hey, hit those drones for a second”. It turns out I had subconsciously tuned them to EADGBE. Craaaaazy !!

"Owner of a Lonely Heart" is a great GREAT song and production, but "Slave to the Rhythm" is objectively the peak of 1980s bombast. £800,000, two studios, dual sync'd 24-track machines,, endless remixes, mountains of cocaine-fueled reinvention adding more and more parts. People are still making remixes and reminiscing about the project. I'd love to hear Trevor Horn talk about many of his other production masterpieces.

well actually! compression is used so often because of the different situations in which people will find themselves listening to music in nowadays. often through some little headphones with the sound of the world around them, or in their noisy but affordable car, or on their cheap laptop or computer speakers that are not at all specialized for music. the majority of us listen to music now in subpar situations on subpar systems and its for this reason that dynamic range has been lost. music has to compete with the listeners situation, and squashing the range a little is how they do it. so its not like they do it just cause they like to(although that is applicable too), its because it is necessary!

Legendary yes, but marvel, why do you say that? Because he sang such high notes? Have you heard him speak? His voice is naturally VERY high, he speaks at around a D4. Conversely, have you ever heard him sing low notes? I myself, can't recall. That is to say, his range is quite limited. I love his voice and am a Yes fan, but I would not say anything he is doing is superhuman. Geoff Tate, however, in his prime was a marvel. This guy spoke in the second octave(F2), almost 2 full octaves lower than Jon Anderson and could hit the notes Anderson hits plus go even higher, like significantly!! So he sang all those notes Anderson could hit plus higher AND a rich low range. Check out ¨Take Hold of the Flame, live in Tokyo´´ by Queensryche to hear what I mean :) Even Micheal Jackson, who seemed to have a high speaking voice, similar to Anderson had a significantly wider range. Remember, I am not saying he doesn`t have a killer voice, but not a marvel by a long shot.

The breakdown of the 80s tracks gave me a whole new appreciation for this song, especially the nerdy tech stuff like balancing a high pitched snare with Chris's sub octave bass... brilliant. However, I think the orchestral version was a missed opportunity. The power of an 85 piece orchestra lies in the ability to weave & mesh dozens of different parts. But here we have everyone hitting the same note. That's how soundtracks to cheesy made-for-tv movies are done. The original "Owner" was a minimalistic song, produced brilliantly, and that was its power. In the new version, the minimalism is cranked up to 11 which defeats the purpose (sort of like Spinal Tap mocked in "Big Bottom" with 3 basses playing the same part). Trev, I love what you're doing, but if you had an 85 piece orchestra at your disposal I would've LOVED to hear something more intricate like "Changes" or even going back to the Drama album, "Does It Really Happen" where you could've really made those orchestra musicians earn their pay!

Agreed. And I am not a fan of high tuned snare drums, quite the opposite actually....but that snare just drives it. Crazy they cut it with that gate tho. I’ve done crazy things in sessions (like a famous producer that wanted to run the singer through a DJ mixer prior to tape so they could “scratch” the singer to tape. Of course it didn’t work out. But gating a snare to tape is pretty aggressive. Nice commiment there.

"Owner Of A Lonely Heart" is truly a masterpiece of The 1980s and all time. I So would like Trevor Horn and Siouxsie Sioux to work together...even though he said to S&TB, in the late-'80s, "What could I possibly do with your sound, that you haven't already done?" I still think those 2 in a studio together could certainly create some kind of new, original alchemy..esp. w/ regard to lyrical/poetical composition. Those 2?! My God...the possibilities! I hope some of your new material from this very interesting work gets airplay on the radio and TV, Good Sir.

Fascinating stuff. Just watched the DVD of YESSONGS the other night: was fun to finally see the film, but my god it really needs a full restoration, which it hasn't really gotten yet. Audio was pretty poor, and the video quality is just fair at best. I do hope they can do a full restoration someday. Saw YES on the 90125 tour at the Nassau Coliseum in 1984, it was some show.

That remix is by Trevor Horn, Art Of Noise & Chris Squire aswell,...Squire also worked on the Leave It remix aswell,...I find them fun & amazing production on the extended version, Alan White’s drums turned way up sounds stunning....the 80’s is the decade of the remix & Horn & his production team(s) were changing the industry in Rock, Pop, Dance & New Romantic (New Wave).....Trevor Horn was releasing 12’s remixes for McClaren, Art Of Noise, Yes, ABC, Act, Propaganda & Frankie every dam 2 to 3 weeks in the record stores😂😂😂 i visited 3 different records stores every Tuesday (new record shipments arrival day) in my neighborhood solely looking for new Horn Produced Records😯✌️
