New Entry: Stephen Mallinder Drops New Single "Contact"


Brighton, UK musician Stephen Mallinder, co-founder and frontman of the iconic Cabaret Voltaire, has dropped his new single "Contact".

The song is taken from his second solo album 'tick tick tick', which will be out on July 15 via Dais Records, pre-order it here.

Channeling the temporal malaise of lockdown through a lusher palette of modular electronics and stereo strings, the songs embrace ambiguity and plasticity, loose systems of percolating circuitry and airless funk. Recorded across a handful of sessions at MemeTune Studios in Cornwall with frequent collaborator Benge (aka Ben Edwards), Mallinder cites no guiding aesthetic premise for the collection beyond “cowbell on every track, and entirely no reverb.”
