Intone

Cabaret Voltaire is a British music group from Sheffield, England. Initially composed of Stephen Mallinder, Richard H. Kirk and Chris Watson, the group was named after the Cabaret Voltaire, a nightclub in Zurich that was a center for the early Dada movement.
Starting as dada-influenced performance art, Cabaret Voltaire later became one of the most important groups to blend pop with dance music, techno, dub house and experimental electronic music. They formed in Sheffield in 1973 and experimented widely with sound creation and processing before turning to live performances.
In their career, they released several acclaimed singles and albums such as "The Voice of America" and "Red Mecca." The band went through various lineup changes over the years but continued to push boundaries in their sound. In recent years, Richard H. Kirk has resurrected the Cabaret Voltaire moniker for solo performances and released new material under this name.

Box Sets

Cabaret Voltaire circa 1982 was kind of post Rough Trade, pre-Some Bizarre/Virgin. Following on from and with the same line up as the successful dates in Japan (Tokyo, Osaka), resulting in the live album Hai, the 2 live recordings from 1982 on these CD's come from what was referred to as the '2x45' tour. The performances here are unique in that they show Cabaret Voltaire in a period of transition, following the departure of co-founder Chris Watson, and had more studio recordings been made of this phase (see record 2 of '2x45') it could have well developed into something very different to the subsequent albums made during the Some Bizarre/Virgin period of 1983-1985. The recording from Toronto was the next to last date of a North American tour from April/May 1985. The Cabaret Voltaire live concerts of the 83-85 period were much more anarchic than the studio recordings and arguably just as interesting in their own way, like some kind of soundclash going on in realtime...
