Alan on Depeche Mode’s sound and sampling process:

With a Depeche Mode song, the first thing we decide upon is atmosphere. After that, we might add sampled sounds. They could be anything—pebbles in a can or industrial noises using oil cans, skips, concrete… All the technology we use is computer-based, but our interest is in what you can do with that, not how it works. There’s no reason to be scared of computer technology. People blame technology for musical sterility, but that’s rubbish. It comes down to ideas.

How can we go forward when we don't know which way we're facing

How can we go forward when we don't know which way to turn

—How?, John Lennon (1971).

And even after 39, the world still doesn't know how and still misses you, John. But now it's on a higher plane, and we hope you're better there. Rest in peace.

(9/10/1940—8/12/1980) ✝️

Dire Straits in 1978. l. to r.: John Illsley, Mark Knopfler, Pick Withers, David Knopfler (Photo from Wikipedia) When the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame announced the names of those giving induction speeches for the Class of 2018, noticeably absent in the list was a name attached to Dire Straits. And in the days prior to the British band’s induction on Saturday night (April 14) at Cleveland’s Public Hall, members of the group acknowledged that neither group leader Mark Knopfler nor his brother David Knopfler would be joining the festivities. . . . #direstraits #markknopfler #rockandrollhalloffame #noshow #statement #rockgods #classicbands #2018 #brothersinarms #oneverystreet #band #myfavoritband #guitarbands #twang #english #britishbands #songwriter #guitarist #sexiestsoundeverrecorded

Step from a physical plane to a spiritual one. So many years have passed, we continue to remember him with all the love in the world, and we continue with his legacy. And yet he is not with us in this material world, he continues to live thanks to his legacy.

Eighteen years ago, a great musician left us in this material world. A man with a soul so happy and so honest, full of a love for music and for nature. A spiritual man who found peace and left this world knowing that his loved ones They wouldn't be worried about him.

A man who even in his death bed, wanted to accompany his best friend to see his daughter who was going through a bad time. Why that was George, he didn't mind sacrificing himself for others. He is the one who inspires me to be a better person every day and be the best version of me.

We still miss you George Harrison, and we hope you're doing well on the spiritual level ❤️

We will always love you and, will always miss you, George.
