The Danish synth-pop duo Laid Back produced the dance track “White Horse,” which reached No. 26 on the Hot 100 chart. This song unmistakably addresses the dangers associated with heroin. Influenced by pioneers of electronic music such as Kraftwerk, the song incorporated synth-driven textures and beats that were contemporary for 1983, even pushing the boundaries of the genre. Notably, it stood out due to its minimalistic arrangement.
