Most people don't really appreciate the significance of this collaboration. If you grew up to this genre of music (Depeche Mode, Yazoo, Erasure...etc) this is like the founding fathers uniting.

@@drexlspivey5828 Neither DM nor Erasure were techno bands. DM was still synthpop whether or not Clake left! You could say early synthpop in general had a different sound, look at early OMD and Alphaville. Later eighties synthpop sound evolved into what you hear with New Order and Pet Shop Boys as well as DM and Erasure. Techno music at the time was a whole other genre which came into existence during the late eighties and nineties, mostly. And if you don't believe me, listen to Vince in this interview saying this is the first time he's delving into techno which has a very distinct sound from other synth music.

@@moreshige The original poster didn't mention anything about the style of music, he was talking about the fact it was Vince Clark and Martin Gore collaborating, they could have been making space jazz and his post would have been the same, it's not because it's techno that it's significant
I actually love the part at around 2:53 where Martin doesn't know why he gets the erasure records early. That's honestly so lovely.
Vince Clark is a genius, he has an exceptional talent that every band is looking for.
Two synth-pop icons, who defined the sound of 80s

I love this. Would be cool to hear Vince and Alan do something too.
"From everything in the Mute catalogue, for some weird reason, I get every single Erasure release sent to me, and I literally don't get anything else." VINCE'S FACE HE KNOWS
Year 2023 and still claiming: VCMG are the Godfathers of Synthpop!
These two are who I grew up with. Truly legends. Thank you to both!
How amazing would it be to have a Depeche album/tour with everyone on board? Vince, Alan W., Fletcher, Gore and Gahan?!?! If only...
I think Martin and Vince are more alike than they even realize.

Maybe that was the problem back in the day, in the absence of age, experience, and maturity (such as it is). :) If it wasn't that or a missing left big toe, then it must have been the fiver that Martin owed Vince that broke them up. Yeah, that's it! Martin had forgotten, Vince was too introverted and brooding back then to ever bring it up, and Martin was too introverted and brooding to ever ask what was wrong. It wasn't about the five quid, per se, though, it was about the whole principle of the thing. Vince couldn't stand it anymore and left. Now that he's older and, dare I say it?, wiser, he simply asked for his money back. Things could have been so different! ;)

Anyone who knows the history, & who has followed either/both of these fellas, would love this interview. Fascinating to see them together like this, just enjoying it & seemingly very content with life (as they fkin should be!). Also who would've known that they hardly "knew" each other until a couple of days before this interview......just getting to know each other....32 years later!
Ssss is amazing. Both musical personalities are evident in the work. I'd love to hear these two collaborate again. P.S. Thank you Daniel Miller for starting this whole thing back in the day. Mute rocks.
I am glad these two are willing and open to work together. That they have no grudges and that they are able to work on a project. Both guys have had tremendous success.
Never really watched these types of things before but as a lifelong fan of both musicians it is really heartwarming to hear two lovely funny guys in conversation. Bit lonely at the moment as abroad for a few months and this video felt like being with two mates for twenty minutes. Thank you!!

That’s a lovely sentiment. I feel the same. I loved my Depeche Mode and Yaz (in the US) LPs back in the early 80s. This little reunion feels quite comfortable.

I cant agree more 👍 with both of you from a French devotee since 1980 🌹 RECOIL by Alan Wilder is so underrated my oodness. Glad to know Jean Michel Jarre loves Vince Clarke and Martin with whom he has collaborated in ELECTRONICA then OXYMORE , Jean Michel s last 2 albums.
Legends - the pair of them.
Two electronic legends sitting casually on a settee! Cracked up at Vinces reason for leaving DM! 😂

And Martin *toed* the line on that whopper, trying not to laugh. I dunno what this means, but there is a strong sense of conspiracy between these two.... :)
Two great talents.
Aside from being a genius in music, also love Vince's sense of humor and the down-to-earth personality... would like to think it is founded upon his solid musicality.
This is Awesome...... They are all grown up, mature and they put their talents together with no egos involved...... Spectacular.......
Two music geniuses.
Vince is a cool guy. But for me Depeche Mode started for real when Alan Wilder joined. Depeche Mode would have sounded like Erasure if he stayed. No Stripped, Never Let Me Down Again and no Enjoy The Silence. That thought horrifies me!

I never knew about this record before yesterday, and I listened through it last night. Its the best Techno record I have ever heard. Definitely playing a tune of it next time I DJ.
The toe accident made me laugh out loud. Well done Vince. Good to see you two together. I appreciate the album much more these years than when it first came out.
These guys are so talented, I have heard all their music since 1986 and believe they are equally talented and will be remembered forever, in the likes of Cole, Presley, Jackson, Young, and even Abba and Queen. Live on Mr Gore and Mr Clark, you were a major influence in my life, Im a better person with your music. Oh Lamour
LOL! Vince had me going with the Big Toe story!
This video is the perfect remedy if you're ever feeling down :D

Seeing these 2 legends here and now, back to Depeche Mode in the 80's is a unbelievable reality of how Time of life really does fly by in style and friendships.
