Richard H Kirk (Cabaret Voltaire)

[DCI_Gene_Hunt]

RHK has died aged just 65.

Maybe unknown to many but a true pioneer and a massive influence on many of us over the last 40 years.

Have a few things by them going back to their Nag Nag Nag single. Could be strange and baffling for my tastes at times but no doubting there brilliance.

Blimey. RIP. It was only this morning I was watching a program about electronic/synth music that Cabaret Voltaire featured on.

What was that? I might have to look it up (with my arm pointing up too).

Here's a good little snippet from Synth Brittania

Oh man. I've still got a vinyl copy of Mix-Up that gets played occasionally. Not easy listening but I don't think they were bothered about what people thought.

I still have my ancient vinyl copies of Mix Up, Three Mantras and Red Mecca.

Not everyone's cup of tea (as my wife will confirm) but I still like it now.

Sad news today.
