Alan Wilder to remix Depeche Mode track for new remix album
Side-Line has received positive confirmation that Alan Wilder (Recoil and ex-Depeche Mode) is indeed to remix a Depeche Mode track for a forthcoming Depeche Mode remix-abum, planned for 2011. First launched as a mere rumour, we received solid info that the remix is indeed a fact. In related news, Vince Clarke from Erasure fame tweeted back in October that he had done a “Behind The Wheel” remix. Which could mean that the upcoming Depeche Mode remix album will be the first ever ‘reunion’ CD so to speak featuring all 5 (ex)-members of Depeche Mode, one way or another.
According to Depechemode.de Wilder would have picked a track from the band’s current release “Sounds of the Universe” with “In chains” being the final choice.

Sounds like he’s inching closer to either rejoining the band or producing their next record.
I hope so! But most likely producing rather than rejoining.
I came by on youtube on this video it just has been posted on facebook …

Some people told me it will be on the remix album also, it is made by a technomusic pioneer Jamez (Trancesetters)
I really liked it, can’t wait to buy the remix album
