There isn't a lot of '80s UK chart-bothering music that was not touched by Trevor Horn although his biggest commercial success was probably Frankie Goes To Hollywood. Besides the vocals it's almost all Trevor, JJ Jeczalic and his Fairlight CMI (an early sampler).
01 - Barbed Wire - Nina Hagen
02 - And Through the Wire / Und durch den Draht - both versions by Peter Gabriel
03 - Wired For Sound - Cliff Richard
04 - I Dream of Wires - Gary Numan

Re: FGTH, There was some material on the second side ( of the tape / second LP ) of Welcome to the Pleasure dome that was the actual band playing. You are correct though that all of the commercially successful stuff was mainly the work of the producers and Holly Johnson.
I heard that Steve Howe ( of Yes ) played guitar on the song Welcome to the pleasuredome. At 13 minutes in length at a time of 3~4 minute pop songs the song was exceptional in that respect alone. Trevor's work with FGTH also spawned the culture of remixes, with the many versions of Two Tribes released.
Trevor done some interesting stuff under the banner of The Art of Noise He certainly put the use of sampling technology in music squarely on the map.
