Legendary producer Trevor Horn presents Echoes – Ancient & Modern, a new album which sees him work with some of his favourite singers to create fresh versions of songs he loves.
The album features 11 tracks which are performed by Tori Amos, Seal, Iggy Pop, Marc Almond, Rick Astley, Andrea Corr, Steve Hogarth (from Marillion), Lady Blackbird, Jack Lukeman, Toyah Wilcox & Robert Fripp and Trevor Horn himself.
The songs themselves are iconic hits from the likes of Depeche Mode (Personal Jesus), Pat Benetar (Love Is A Battlefield), The Cars (Drive), Billy Idol (White Wedding) including a few signature tracks that Trevor was involved in the first time around such as Frankie Goes To Hollywood's 'Relax', Grace Jones' 'Slave to the Rhythm' and Yes' 'Owner of a Lonely Heart'.
This is very much a Trevor Horn album with guest vocalists, since as well as producing, Horn sings backing vocals, plays keyboards, bass and/or guitar. Fellow instrumentalists, include his old friend, Lol Creme, and a string orchestra.
"Building a feeling into a song is a tricky, intangible thing to do. There are lots of technical and psychological short cuts to recording a song, but none to actually make it feel real. That remains a studio secret." - Trevor Horn
One of the highlights of Echoes: Ancient & Modern is the opening number which is Tori Amos singing Kendrick Lamar's much admired 2012 rap single 'Swimming Pool (Drank)' which sounds like it shouldn't work at all but does thanks to the introduction of a few simple chords and Amos' stunning vocals. It's a cinematic rendition which, as the producer notes, "sets everything up like it’s the beginning of a song cycle".
Echoes: Ancient & Modern will be released on 1 December 2023 via Deutsche Grammophon.
