After 25 years, Ian Boddy and Chris Carter’s rare underground classic Caged returns, remastered and expanded.

First released in 2000, Caged united two giants of experimental electronic music - Throbbing Gristle’s Chris Carter, a pioneering force in industrial and electronic music for over four decades, and Ian Boddy, composer, sound designer, analogue synth aficionado, and founder of the ambient/electronic label DiN. Having known each other casually for years, Boddy invited Carter to collaborate for his then-new label; Carter immediately agreed, and together they produced a work of startling muscularity and textural depth. Across its shifting soundscapes, Caged plays with chance and paradox, where a whisper swells into a crescendo, a beat dissolves into a tone, and nothing remains still for long.

The album now returns for its 25th anniversary via The Grey Area of Mute in a newly remastered edition, expanded with two brand-new compositions reimagined from the original audio files: ‘Claustrophobia’, reworked by Carter, and ‘Uncaged’, reworked by Boddy. Together, these new versions revisit Caged’s DNA from opposite ends of the spectrum, one tightening its grip, the other breaking free. They say expectation is a prison. Here, being Caged is being free.

“There is a great feeling of watching, and of anticipation, in these sounds – as though they had been buried for such a long time. Distant signals from another place – eminently patient, listenable and methodical…” - FREQ (David Cotner)
