Michigan-Inner Peace 2013 Demo

This is a cover with some original sounds sampled. Otherwise it´s all just about programming:)

Michigan-Depeche Mode "Welcome To My World"-Cover-2014

A cover of Depeche Mode`s "Higher Love". Obviously some original samples were used, 

Michigan-Depeche Mode´s Higher Love cover 2014

This is one´s made with 2-3 original samples. The rest of the sounds are made on NI instruments, such as, Massive, Battery, Rounds, and others.  Great sounding track imho!

Michigan - Should Be Higher (instrumental cover)-  origin appears on Depeche Mode´s Delta Machine

A couple of years ago me and some guys bought the original EMAX disc with Alan Wilders set-up for the "Music for the Masses tour-88". So I made this one for fun, a couple of years ago, using the actual sounds he did play. 

Depeche Mode´s  Blasphemous Rumours-88 version ( Alan Wilders original EMAX set-up`s used)

I did this one 2 years ago, using the original Alan Wilder EMAX samples: Always loved the track. It´was THE ONE track that got me into both DM and music.

Depeche Mode- Something To Do-88 version (Alan Wilder´s original EMAX set-up´s used )

Well, we´ve all been a child sometime:) A corny yet, poppy track.

Depeche Mode`s Just Can´t Get Enough-88 version 82 Ending (Alan Wilders original Emax set-up´s used)

A great track in my opinion. To me it represents all the best parts of what a good DM track`s about. 

Depeche Mode´s Black Celebration-88 version (Alan Wilder´s Emax set-up`s used)

Depeche Mode`s Master&Servant 88 version with-84 Ending (Alan Wilder´s Emax´s setup was used)

Another personal favourite. A great tune:)

Depeche Mode`s Shake The Disease- 88 version (Alan Wilder´s Emax setup was used)

Depeche Mode`s Fly On The Windscreen-86 version (Alan Wilder´s Emax setup was used)

Depeche Mode`s Leave In Silence 86-version (Alan Wilder´s Emax setup used)

Great track. 
Several sounds were taken from Banks of "Fly on the Windscreen", "Everything Counts", "Leave in Silence", and "Something to do". As I try to create the actual soundscape, I clearly begin to see how Alan really worked with the liveversions. Great fun it is:). Enjoy it!

Depeche Mode`s Puppets - 84 Version (Sounds from A.W Emax setup-88 were used)

Party...........................Sounds from banks of "A Question of Lust-93", "Fly on the Windscreen-93", "Something to do-93", were used to create this track. 
Software: Reason, NI Komplete, and different samples.

Depeche Mode`s More Than A Party 84-86 version (Sounds from A´W Emax setup were used)

......Not tonight. The leadsound in this track I built with samples from "Here is the House", along with Alan´s sounds from "A Question of Lust", and "Something toDo" to mention a few.

Depeche Mode`s But Not Tonight (Some sounds from A W´s Emax setup were used)

This was a tricky one:)..............Enjoy it though!

Depeche Mode`s Get The Balance Right 83-version (Some samples from AW´s Emax setup were used)

An obscure track. A really gloomy one. Perfect then!:) Enjoy!

Depeche Mode`s - To Have And To Hold 87 M4TM version ( Some sounds from AW´s Emax setup were used)

My first ever bought record back in -85. Love it!

Depeche Mode´s "It´s Called A Heart" 86-version (Some sounds from AW´s Emax setup were used)

Simpleness at its best:). Sounds from Banks of "Everything Counts-93", "Behind the Wheel" were used to create this, along with a couple of samples of coarse. Nexus, Battery, Reason, Massive, Rob Papen´s Predator were also used for this production among others....

Depeche Mode´s - It Doesn´t Matter - Two 86-version (Sounds from Alan Wilder´s Emax setup were used)

Laidback track from SOFAD.  Alan´s Bank were filled with over 40 samples for this track. I also used some samples from "In Your Room", "Personal Jesus Multitrack" and "Enjoy the Silence"  to fill the track. Enjoy!:)

Depeche Mode`s Mercy in You-93 version (Alan Wilder´s Emax setup were used)

This was the thoughest one so far...It´s THE Depeche Mode track in my opinion. It has everything......
Samples from banks such as "Strangelove", "I Want you Now-94" and "Mercy in You-93" were used to create this track. Some samples were also used. One of the bass sounds is actually the lead bassline from "Walking in My Shoes"  The drums were created with NI´s Drumlab. The pulsating bass in the beginning of the track is taken from "Policy of Truth-Multitrack)

Depeche Mode`s In Your Room 93-Version (Some sounds from AW´s Emax setup were used)

Why.....why wasn´t this a singel back then.....Constructed with variuos samples from "Policy of Truth-Multitrack". Samples from Emax banks such as "Fly on the Windscreen", "Mercy in You-93", "Everything Counts-93" and "I Want You Now-94" were used.  

Depeche Mode`s Halo-93 version Updated!( Sounds from Alan´s Emax setup were used)

I´ve dubbed the drums. Sounds from NI´s Battery  layered with the original -94 live version.  A lot of samples in the Bank, (somewhere around 20 of them) helped building this track. Of coarse some original samples were used. Enjoy!

Depeche Mode´s I Want You Now 94 version Alan Wilder´s Emax setup was used)

Again ....Alan´s thinking on how to reuse samples again is incredible. Sounds from Banks such as "FOTW-93", "Behind the Wheel-88", helped create this corny track. Enjoy!

Depeche Mode`s Boys Say Go 86-Version (Samples from Alan`s Emax setup were used)
