Dark Cabaret and the Circus

Throughout my years of listening to Dark Cabaret music, there is an undeniable and large elephant in the room, though this elephant is not so much a problem as it is just, cool and standing there.

The Dark Cabaret aesthetic is built on a couple Ideas; 1920's vaudeville, Burlesque, and the post WWII Weimar styles. The energy that is depicted in these traits are the key identifiers but, through some of these things there is another very strong indicator of the "Dark Cabaret" style.

Dark Circus. What is the difference really? Both have a love for dark stripes, morally grey themes, and themes surrounding performance and theater, and are just so cool! The reason I am making this post is just to point out some sound differences depending on the type of cabaret person you are. The genre, though so mixed already, is even more specific once you get into the bottom of the barrel (as I would say I have.)

Dark Cabaret music on its own has a very mellow beat pattern. Typically having lyrics that are related to the aesthetics of the music, stories from history, darker lyrics about life and death, sex and love, and many other things.

Then there is the aesthetics of Dark Circus that get thrown in the mix. These elements bring in a much more comedic tone to the music. Lots of bells and whistles and horns and laughter can be heard in these numbers. They're typically quite absurdist in their messaging and have quicker tempos to level with the wild energy these numbers put out. The Dark in the term is found in the lyrics of the music, or the aesthetic of them. A real pioneer in my opinion for this genre meshing is Emilie Autumn with her Circus aesthetic and Cabaret music mixing and bringing a whole other energy to the sub-culture.

To reiterate, this post isn't negative or trying to be snobby I am just so fascinated by this little music genre and love to analyze the how and the whys!

Grab your camera

No, no need to point

It knows just where to go

Drawing you in closer

All attention is mine

As I compose

A pleasurable presentation

For your own personal viewing

All your ears and eyes are mine

A round of applause

A sound of a bell

Whispers in my ear

I know it’s all so personal

If you think I really care…

Ha

You must really be hypnotized

KABARET SYBARIT

Genesis's #1 Positive Burden: Kabaret Sybarit.

When people ask me what the sound of "Dark Cabaret" is I always point to Kabaret Sybarit first.

Probably most known for their iconic song "Rattlesnake," Kabaret Sybarit was a Dark Cabaret band from Denmark that began making music in 2009. The band consisted of seven members. The vocals are most known to be from Kirsten Bjerregaard featured on both "The Poodle" EP as well as "The Grand Finale" EP but vocals are also taken up by the band's Martin Klein Sørensen whose vocals influence their sound in their only full-length EP "Akt: 1 Rum nr. 13."

All together with the other amazingly talented band members, the band performed these pieces with wonderful gusto, aesthetic, wit, and comedy. Earning them a spot as (in my humble opinion) one of the most perfect Dark Cabaret bands ever. Though they have disbanded since, Mathias still works on music and lurks on the internet, appreciating support when the band is mentioned and many songs have found their way into different fanbases for their villainous energy and fun sound!

3 years of being #inappropriate! 3 years since we released our most colourful, most sparkly, most #queer, most #Berlin, most inappropriate video! 3 years since we thought the #Steamball V would happen (mark the post credits in the video!) - even if it was the #LastPartyOnEarth. It was close though 😂 3 years since we considered breathing masks a good metaphor for faceless boring vanilla people sticking to norms 🤪 3 years since we considered #triggerwarningalbum our international breakthrough. Well that pandemic was just a minor delay - up, up, and away to the stars! What a time to rewatch this bombshell of a video (link in story). Because aren't we all a little INAPPROPRIATE?
