Cabaret Voltaire is one of the [[Trope Maker|Trope Makers]] and [[Trope Codifier|Trope Codifiers]] of [[Industrial|Industrial music]]. Formed in 1973 and named after the famous [[Dada]] nightclub in Zurich, the band combined harsh [[Suicide (band)]]-influenced [[Post Punk]] rock, instrument-and-voice effects processing, tape manipulation, and eventually such influences as [[Funk]], Dub, Dance, and [[House Music|House]] to become one of the most prolific and respected artists of 70s and 80s electronic music. The band officially disbanded in 1994, though guitarist Richard H. Kirk resurrected the name in 2009 for collaborative purposes.
