one last preview of depeche mode 'remixes 2' — featuring vince clarke and alan wilder tracks

Share

Depeche Mode's Remixes 2: 81-11 finally arrives next week. We've already heard two remixes of "Personal Jesus" — one by Alec Metric and another entitled "Stargate Remix" — plus the Eric Prydz remix of "Never Let Me Down Again" and Norwegian dance duo Röyksopp's re-do of "Puppets."

So how about one more flood of pre-release leaks? Let's start with the two most ballyhooed tracks — the contributions of former members Vince Clarke and Alan Wilder.

Clarke checks in with a propulsive yet subdued take on "Behind The Wheel":




Wilder went with the latter day track "In Chains".. it's a slow burn, but ultimately powerful:




We'll share a few more highlights, if you don't mind. This one is thumping update of "Tora! Tora! Tora!" from Miike Snow's Karlsson & Winnberg:




More straightforward, and quite excellent is the Tim Simenon and Mark Saunders remix of the classic "Strangelove":




Finally, maybe the most pleasant surprise of all, the "Joebot Presents 'Radio Face' Remix" of "A Question Of Time":




So much collective awesomeness.
