The reunion of Cabaret Voltaire’s Stephen Mallinder and Chris Watson for a series of dates through the autumn of 2025 is one of the musical stories of the year, so we got the shivers to say the least when a pal sent over a YouTube video of rehearsals at London’s infamously synth-packed Memetune Studios. The short clip features Mallinder on bass and Watson on organ, joined by Eric Random on guitar and Benge on drums. You can watch it below. Cabaret Voltaire kick off their reunion at Sheffield’s FORGE Warehouse on 25 October, before a run of already sold out dates around the country, with some tickets still remaining for the Roundhouse in London on 22 October – you can find them here. Support at the gigs comes from tQ favourites including Microcorps, Currentmoodgirl, and Vanishing. You can watch Cabaret Voltaire rehearsing ‘Landslide’, from the album Red Mecca, below:
