ABC moved to the EMI label, where they recorded the LP Abracadabra, a tightly produced fusion of early 1990s techno sounds and 1970s dance grooves which was met with muted critical approval and appreciation from the band's fan base. "Love Conquers All", the first single, barely placed in the UK charts, though remixes of "Say It" were well received on the US dance charts.
