An excerpt of interview with Alan Wilder

If you could re-live a DM moment again what would you choose ?
That’s tough – on a creative level, there are those special moments when you know you’ve done something good. For example, when we nailed ‘In Your Room’ (which had been tough) by effectively stitching together three working versions and making one. Everybody sat back, listened through and collectively said.. wow, yes that’s it. But really I would just like to re-live some of the great after show parties!!

Which “post Alan” DM song would you have liked to have worked on?
Probably ‘Home’ – although Tim Simenon did a pretty good job anyway. I really like the string arrangement and the song itself, both lyrically and melodically. I think Martin based the verse around ‘Lucy In The Sky’ (verse). Check the chord structure.

We understand you think DM quality control is lacking – but would you agree with a retrospective box set containing demos etc etc being released?
No I wouldn’t. That’s a classic case of not controlling quality. Demos are exactly what they say they are, a demonstration for those working on the music to hear the song in a very basic undeveloped way. They were never intended for public consumption and that is how it should stay (well until I’m long dead anyway:)

Also, with the benefit of hindsight, are there any songs or albums you now like more (or less) than when they were originally recorded?
A few but not many. Perhaps something like ‘Rush’ seems to have improved with age. Generally, I feel now the same way I felt at the time. Some I love, some I hate:)

[1985] Vince Clarke looking for Andy Bell 39 years ago...
This is a true piece of synthpop history.

Et l'annonce de DM pour trouver un remplaçant à Clarke en 82, on l'a trouvée?

je crois pas.

Le nouvel album du groupe Humanist présente des guest-appearance de géants de la musique dont Dave Gahan.

Alan Wilder met aux enchères sa collection de Vinyles :

Gore et Gahan doivent rigoler. Eux nagent dans le pognon et à chaque fois qu'on voit Wilder, c'est pour vendre quelque chose... Ses synthés, sa maison, ses disques... Ça sent vraiment le mec qui cherche du blé pour vivre.

Ca se discute.
Il déménager à l'étranger et a vendu sa somptueuse baraque il y a quelques mois, il ne peux pas tout emporter s'il va vivre dans un endroit plus petit.

Moi je pense qu'il doit en chier et vivre au-dessus de ses moyens.
