Mute announce the release of two boxed sets from
Cabaret Voltaire’s Richard H. Kirk:
Richard H. Kirk – #7489 (Collected Works 1974 – 1989)
Sandoz – #9294 (Collected Works 1992 – 1994)
Richard H. Kirk – #7489 (Collected Works 1974 – 1989) is an 8-CD boxed 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.
#7489 includes the 2CD Earlier/Later album as well as the newly re-mastered albums Disposable Half Truths, Time High Fiction (2CD), Black Jesus Voice, Ugly Spirit and an album of rarities Super Duper Soul. 
Sandoz – #9294 (Collected Works 1992 – 1994) is a 5-CD boxed set collating the melding of African sounds with European electronic music, the mission statement of Richard H. Kirk’s alter ego, Sandoz.
These works date from 1992-1994, the box includes the 2CD Digital Lifeforms (Redux), the longtime unavailable and newly re-mastered Intensely Radioactive and Dark Continent albums and an album of rarities Runs The Voodoo Down.
