So sad to hear of Richard H Kirk's passing today.A true innovator and visionary in electronic music.

[@cra662007]

RIP, Richard H. Kirk Your awesome work has been the soundtrack for over 40 years of my life.

[@FOOTLIGHTSinFrac]

What a great song and album! RIP R.H.KIRK!

[@DJTrippVideo]

RIP RHK. A true pioneer. Thanks for making it messy and fun!

[@NachtSchreck13]

Great news! This tune is totally rad and on-point. It invokes the early 80's CV sound, infusing it within the framework of a contemporary Industrial Techno track. Richard H. Kirk always has his finger on the pulse of cutting-edge electronic music.

[@wolvesrunhere115]

AGREED!

[@jef_hel]

True that.

[@TAXImutant]

It is probably the only number of them that I don't know... not really impressed. I love Wrangler much more. This is kind of boring. Too little freakiness of their kind.

[@ciaobella65]

Sho you right!

*I wonder why Richard H. Kirk decided to release this as a Cabaret Voltaire album instead of a RHK album if Stephen Mallinder isn't on it?* *But I'm happy he's releasing some new music- 1 of my favorite musicians!*

[@emilyoshiro]

EGGSACKLEY!

[@antunivanovic]

Kudos to Richard Kirk, for everything - and yes - it would pass more honest if released under his own name which speaks volumes. This way, presenting it as something it is not entirely, leaves a mere illusion. And the fans greeting it as "Cabaret Voltaire" sound just like the music - flogging the living legend... The track has an interesting premise but after its initial build-up, the intrigue of the brutal electro-façade is quickly smashed, revealing a doodling play-safe reinterpretation (it's not hard to think of "Walk East", "Eastern Mantra" and especially "Yashar").

[@TheBigMclargehuge]

For one thing, there is no way I would have ever heard this song. I only stumbled onto CV because they share a label with Severed Heads.

[@pantoponrosegoatoe4129]

Awesome! The last CV album I own is International Language. Great to see CV releasing music again almost 30 years later

[@Bucketroo]

Oh yeah, this has Richard H. Kirk written all over it. CAN'T WAIT!

[@andyoconnell3266]

Can’t say I’m Hypnotised by this but great to think there’s new Cabs music in the offing after all this time! 👍

[@duncanbuchanan5119]

Gobsmacked !!!!! R.H.Kirk and Cabaret Voltaire !!!!! New music !!!!! Never forget seeing you live at Masonic Temple in Toronto in early eighties !!!!! Felt like you were playing just for me, I think I was the only one dancing !!!!!!! Got a boot cassette of the show many many many years later !!!!! Good day for new releases !!!

[@nateo6518]

I forgot how much I used to dig this sh-t. Too bad I'm listening on one speaker. I need headphones or a club with a good DJ. And possibly some illicit substances. Those days may be over, but I'll take what I can get.

[@ursaminorjim]

This is just excellent. Thank you! And welcome back!

[@traxikscifi8105]

I even went to the real Cabaret Voltaire in Zuerich, because of you, Love you 4ever.

[@manmaas]

I recall going to see Richard at some experimental affair at the Festival Hall in London with people up for a random noodle squiggle kind of an evening and people complaining when Kirk hit that 4/4 bass drum sound for the next forty minutes as support, rocking out frantically across his machines. It wasn't what my friends were expecting but I thought it was great, he was so in the moment. Good evening all round, though I can't for the life of me remember who came on after him!

[@robertescher3082]

I do wish Stephen were still part of the band, but I'm happy that Richard is carrying on the tradition and taking it to new directions. It's strange too since I've recently been on a RHK / Sandoz / Electronic Eye kick... :D :D :D :D :D

[@chunkrecords]

maybe try this out: chunkrecords.bandcamp.com/album/electronic-babylon

[@misterbkh]

i'm glad Stephen is doing Wrangler as it is miles above this. this is NOT Cabaret Voltaire

[@manmaas]

That's weird, I was trying out mixes between Virtual State, The Magic of Numbers, and the Trucker Bombers of Suburbia just last night. There's something in the air!

[@pappack]

The same name of the city “Vasto” in Italy where you made a memorable djset in 2017 during the Siren Festival. It was a really great show for me. Thanks

[@mariannasilva6232]

Welcome back, RHK! How I missed you, man

[@delboy1969]

Absolutely marvellous, what the world has truly been waiting for. All the Richard H Kirk trademarks, sounds like classic Cabs yet so in synch with the madness of 2020! Shame Stephen Mallinder isn't involved though but totally loving this to bits and blasting it through my headphones on repeat!

[@ladysmythe7868]

Yes please! As a lifelong (am old now people) Cabs fan, I adore this dark but beautiful tune..well that's what it is 2 me! Wonderful!! X

just heard the bad news. RIP Richard H Kirk, your music is still playing here, and you will join Edward Ka-Spel's lament in So Gallantly Screaming: "God how we need you now." I thought for sure, I might get to see Cabaret Voltaire perform when this was all over...

I have a lot of RHK solo stuff which this sounds very similar to. Considering I’m talking about a few years ago I hope the new CV album will be more inspirational and forward thinking. Nothing wrong with this track, it’s just that it’s not exactly ground breaking, even for CV. Do I Need it.?

[@peterv.5086]

I was the biggest advocate of Cabaret Voltaire during my DJ career in the Chicago underground & alternative club scene in the 1980’s. I always incorporated several CV tracks into my mixes every night at the Smart Bar, Cabaret Metro, Medusa’s and Berlin. CV lost me though after the release of their album “Code”, sadly enough. What came after that was absolute rubbish. I just now accidentally found out that this was released in 2020 and am SO GLAD Rickard Kirk dropped the god-awful, cheap and tacky house-music vibe. THIS is Cabaret Voltaire in all it‘s glory!! Welcome back!

[@ericsuitcase4270]

Stoked!!🔥

[@paulpisano8634]

Reminds me of Kirk's work under the name Nitrogen that he released in '97. Not complaining, but do hope there's more to the album as that wasn't one of my favorites.

Sorry, but without Mallinder this is just a Kirk solo album masquerading as Cabaret Voltaire. This track even sounds like it could have been on his last album, Dasein. There goes the hope I've had for years that they'd reunite, at least for some shows.
