Happy Birthday Trevor Horn.
In 1979, after forming Camera Club with Thomas Dolby and Geoff Downes, Horn and Downes split to form The Buggles, whose video for the song "Video Killed The Radio Star" was the first video played on MTV.
Horn co-founded the band Art of Noise in 1983, and was one of the most commercially successful producers of the 1980s, producing Band Aid's "Do They Know It's Christmas," ABC's Lexicon of Love, Yes' 90125, and Frankie Goes To Hollywood's Welcome to the Pleasuredome.
No small thing, Trevor was also "one of the originators of the 12 inch remix." (peoplesound.com)
