Non-Stop Erotic Cabaret is the debut studio album by English synth-pop duo Soft Cell, released on 27 November 1981 by Some Bizzare Records.[2][3] The album`s critical and commercial success was bolstered by the success of its lead single, a cover version of Gloria Jones`s song `Tainted Love`, which topped the charts worldwide and became the second best-selling British single of 1981. In the United States, as a result of the single`s success, the album had reported advance orders of more than 200,000 copies.[3] The album spawned two additional top-five singles in the UK: `Bedsitter` and `Say Hello, Wave Goodbye`.

Recording
The album was created on a limited budget; it was supposedly recorded almost entirely with a ReVox tape recorder, a borrowed Roland drum machine belonging to Kit Hain, a Korg SB-100 Synthe Bass, and an NED Synclavier, belonging to producer Mike Thorne. David Ball noted the Synclavier would ordinarily have been well beyond the band`s means, costing £120,000: `That was our technological advantage over the other synth bands at the time. In fact, I remember Don Was calling me – desperate to know how we got those sounds.`[4] The group caused some controversy in the United Kingdom over the song `Sex Dwarf`, the music video of which was banned due to its explicit, S&M-related content.[5]
