The production is a bit cheesy, but the episode features:
Off Topic: The Producers – a producer ‘supergroup’ that features Trevor Horn, Stephen Lipson, Lol Créme, Ash Soan – do their version of Two Tribes.
The Producers’ Made In Basing Street is out on June 25.
This massive interview with super producer Trevor Horn comes from the 2011 Red Bull Music Academy.
Trevor Horn’s list of credits reads like a who’s who of the international pop charts, drawing in everyone from Seal to Frankie Goes To Hollywood, Pet Shop Boys to Yes.
Super producer Trevor Horn talks about the vision behind the fourth version of Relax by Frankie Goes To Hollywood.
He goes on to discuss his thoughts on “the perfect song”:
Superproducer Trevor Horn & Yes have announced a new album, Fly From Here, set to be released in July.
The current version of the band is minus Jon Anderson and Rick Wakeman.
While Fly From Here will apparently be cape-free, it will include a 20+ minute epic prog excursion.

Trevor Horn and ZTT Records have announced the return of The Buggles, on stage for their first ever full live gig, 30 years after their international #1 hit single Video Killed The Radio Star.
Trevor will reconvene the original Buggles line-up, including Geoff Downes (Yes, Asia) and Bruce Woolley (Camera Club, Grace Jones), to preform their début album, The Age of Plastic, in full.
No tour is planned, no DVD or live CD will be released. The Buggles, along with some guest artists, will perform live on stage for one night only, on 28 September 2010 at a West London venue.
This event is being put together to raise funds for London’s Royal Hospital for Neuro-disability. Active since 1854, the hospital has a simple but very important mission: to add years to life and life to years.
Further details – including surprise guests, support acts, and pre-show exclusives – will be announced soon. You can register for more info at Horn’s site.
Any readers planning on making this?
