Having already cast his successful spell over ABC and Malcolm McLaren, Trevor Horn’s next project would be a game changer. Frankie Goes to Hollywood’s ‘Relax’ was released by ZTT Records in 1983. The super-producer had gone all in – the layers of electronics, the Linn drum machine and all those drops that would become so familiar on subsequent dance floors. Remixes were abound and a version of the song would feature on the band’s debut album Welcome to the Pleasuredome released in late 1984.
