The reissue was begun in 2019 with Richard H. Kirk and finished after his death from his own notes, in consultation with Stephen Mallinder and Kirk's estate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe album was made in 1987 at Western Works, the duo's own studio in Sheffield, with Adrian Sherwood joining for pre-production; the sessions then moved to Red Bus in London to mix. Sherwood and the band share the production credit, except on the title track, which the disc label marks as produced by Cabaret Voltaire alone. Mallinder plays bass and keyboards and sings; Kirk plays guitars, keyboards and computer-generated instrumentation. Bill Nelson adds guitar to five tracks, Mark Brydon bass to two, and Simeon Lister saxophone to two. Every composition is credited Kirk\/Mallinder.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe title and lyrics of \"Don't Argue\" lift lines verbatim from the narration of Frank Capra's 1945 US Army film \u003cem\u003eYour Job in Germany\u003c\/em\u003e, made to brief GIs in occupied Germany.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMallinder on the record: \"This album captures a very interesting moment in time where we were moving into a technological world. Probably more than anything else Richard and I made together, CODE was a political record that we didn't have to directly articulate as political.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEMI, through Parlophone, first issued \u003cem\u003eCode\u003c\/em\u003e on 5 October 1987 as PCS 7312.
