Kora! Kora! Kora! is a cut-up and clubbed-to-pieces collage of key cuts from the platinum-selling debut album by the dub-rock phenomenon Kora, forged in Sheffield, England by the legendary electronic pioneers Cabaret Voltaire.

The soulful vocals of Kora have been mined from their lustrous debut album and married by shotgun and evil preacher to a blizzard of industrial electronics and factory funk. Think early Howie B, old school Kraftwerk or an underground Depeche Mode, the British press have been unanimous in declaring this album an unequivocal, surrealist masterpiece.

This is the first new work from The Cabs in more than 15 years and it offers up a refreshing re-approach to the cutting edge retro sounds that glut the commercial radio and TV stations today.  Their nod to the past exists through their production style and fondness for the Dada movement.  Re-ordering cut up pieces of music into their own order and theme.

The musical collage lives on. Richard H Kirk, Cabaret Voltaire’s originator , saw Kora live, was completely gob-smacked by the sheer intensity of the Kora show and immediately offered to apply the Cabaret Voltaire effect.  Present throughout, he re-works the mechanical, almost tribal drum, spacey keys and a sense of the hypnotic that popularized the purveyors of ‘dark dance music’.  They once commented that they desired to ‘annoy as many people as possible’ - We’ll see about that!
