Richard H. Kirk - #7489 (Collected Works 1974 - 1989) 8 CD Box Set
An 8-CD box set, collating Kirk’s solo work from 1974-1989.
Walking a tightrope of experimental and dance floor themed electronic music, Richard H. Kirk’s solo work precedes his output with Cabaret Voltaire and his releases continued alongside the band’s output. Cementing his reputation as a pioneer of electronic music, this box set amply proves Kirk’s inventiveness and sounds as fresh now as it did otherworldly then.
