It was January, twenty years ago today that saw him overdose on a combination of paracetemol and prescription drugs putting an end to what was looking like a promising comeback. He is remembered more for being half of The Associates, a Dundee post-punk outfit pushing the boundaries with sound and experimentation. The abstract direction of musician Alan Rankine alongside the operatic, often otherworldly voice of MacKenzie led to two styles that were at odds with each other yet was as engaging as it was bizarre. 1996 saw a different side to his songs. A series of simpler, piano-heavy songs made up the bulk of the album Beyond the Sun, and looking back to Associates songs like Breakfast, here was a sound that allowed his voice to be centre stage.
