He was always the hot one and the one with the most heart. He gave his absolute all. Never did anything by halves. God, I miss him. I wish I wasn’t broke ass, I’d have loved to bid on something. The screaming when Alan walked out at RAH was overwhelming. They weren’t screaming for Mode, they were screaming for Alan and I hope he knew how much he was missed.
@@Rondo2ooo That's a valid point, and more generally, while Alan's departure was caused in part by poor working conditions and friction, there was no lingering personal animosity between any of the members. Depeche Mode have always been a group of nice guys (including Vince--maybe he needed a couple of years to mellow out, but he's a really nice, good person, like the others). They tended to get on each other's nerves while working, but still liked each other as people. It happens. For example, I get along great with my mom, but I can't work with her on anything--we end up arguing over how to do everything and taking longer than if we had done it by ourselves. In contrast, I argue with my sister too much (not frequently, but still too much, as we have very different perspectives) about petty things (we both contribute to that), but when we work together on a project, even a difficult one, it always gets done quickly and smoothly, because we each know what the other is better at, and we trust the other to do a good job. Depeche Mode are like my mom and me--they like each other as people, but working together is like a living hell! 😄 With many other bands, sadly there is some real personal hatred and deep disrespect involved, and that's something different entirely. Look at Roger Waters and David Gilmour of Pink Floyd. Yeesh! Imagine if Martin, whose role most closely matches that of Waters, were to say what Waters has said about Gilmour and the others: that only the songwriter really matters, and everyone else is pretty much interchangeable and contributes nothing of value. Maybe Martin didn't show enough appreciation for or care enough about what Alan did for the band, which hurt Alan, but for his part, at least Martin let Alan do what he would with Martin's songs, and he never and would never diss Alan (or anyone else) like Waters has done. Imagine if Martin were to say to Dave: "Anyone can sing. I can sing. My songs are what made Depeche Mode, and I don't need you or anyone else!" Admittedly, shortly after Alan's departure, the band got a bit defensive in response to Alan's public criticism, and kind of minimized his contributions, but that was a natural thing to do when people, including fans, were questioning whether the band were finished. They were still sore from Alan's departure (kind of felt abandoned like when Vince left), and had to convince the public that they were still Depeche Mode (I personally think the band was permanently diminished, though, for what it's worth). At least they would walk that kind of talk back later and admit that they missed Alan's contributions. After all, they really are nice guys--only humans, but likable ones.
He hadn't used those tools for years by then, anyway, which is equally sad. He didn't even know if they still worked, so they were all in storage. And what's more, he sold nearly everything in this one auction. I'm not even sure what he has left! Alan sold all of his hardware samplers, and nearly all of his synths and other keyboard instruments, like his Wurlitzer electric piano. He had owned some of these since before he joined Depeche Mode, including the Wurlitzer, the Minimoog, and the Wasp, so it feels as though he has given up on music altogether, not just letting go of Depeche Mode stuff (I didn't say he did, it just feels like he did). The only synth that Alan has left, that I know of, is his EMS VCS 3 Synthi. He also still has his Bösendorfer grand piano after selling his Steinway. Aside from any software plugins (virtual instruments), are those the only two instruments he has left? At least he kept something. Now compare what he has to Martin's home studio or Vince's. No one needs that many synths, but what a contrast!
i know everyone wants Alan to return to Depeche Mode but if you watched the 1993 SOFD Album making documentary, you understand why Alan left and why he's never coming back. For him to say "Something broke in me" during the studio sessions, it's a tiny glimpse into how horrible and disassociated the band were from each other. I didn't grow up knowing the band as individuals, plus I was born in 1998 and my introduction to Depeche was through the radio and my parents, but after becoming more and more curious about their history and delving deeper into their music catalogue-deeper than my parents had, I'm relieved Alan prioritized his health. But again that's just my opinion :)
He should have stuck it out. Martin and Dave recovered. Sucks that he couldn't "not sweat it". Big mistake for leaving DM it cost him money and his fans music. I hope he comes back. But very doubtful. What would be do? They're doing fine without him. Plus if he comes back he would have to learn all their new songs. It'll be very different and cause lots of trouble for all the others involved. If he does come back they may want to pay him as a hired musician not as a full blooded member. For Alan to see Andrew Fletcher making more money than he he wouldn't like it. Also in touring Alan working and sweating on stage while Andrew Fletcher just hitting one or two key on a basic keyboard would not be cool. I'm trying to start something up, aren't I? :)
Try working/living with a druggie, alcoholic & manic depressive...now extract a masterpiece album out of them. The toxic environment or you can put it as a form of f***ing hell (back in the SOFAD days) broke him. Even Flood was in tears. The shit he went through while staying true to his craft then having to f***ing tour with them for ages, I’d go mental. Jesus, money or not, the guy’s been punished enough. He made the right decision to save his sanity. When he appeared for “Somebody” you can tell he missed the DM fanfare. Would be nice to see him on stage for a special reunion with Fletch & him far, far apart. Just hope he managed to get financially stable with this auction. He will ALWAYS be my favourite DM member.
@@pern1044 I am a huge fan of DM since I was born and had their music play near my crib. I also wish that Alan was still part of DM, but not because I wish he wouldn't have left, but rather because I wish he was treated better. I can very well imagine that Dave and Martin's recovery was in no small part due to the element of sobering up that came after Alan left. He was overworked and underpaid. Dave finally struck a deal with Gore that he'll also write songs. Until then, Fletch was their mediator. Alan wasn't given neither the deal nor the mediation with other members. On the contrary, he was stuck making the actual album happen, often without the other band members' input. He did the right thing leaving and frankly, all things considered, neither money, nor "fans loosing music" is an argument by comparison. Who cares. It's downright abusive to have a true musician in one's midst, make them do all the technical work, produce albums, fill in the holes on the tour and in the end have others take the full credit for the final product. Sorry, as a musician, I couldn't care less what sort of money being exploited would have brought me, and I don't care that I'm missing the fame that would bring millions of horny teens around my neck. People have different values. Alan wanted to be happy, do his work, and not be exploited. He was denied these basics. He found them when he left the group. Any speculations beyond these facts are juvenile.
@@minisake2091 well said! I grew up with this band, and I was heartbroken when Alan left. I clearly remember at that time that it was very possible that DM would break up if Dave didn’t sort himself out. But outside of Dave, Alan never had a close relationship with Martin and especially Fletch. IMO, I think Alan realized during SOFAD, he was an outsider despite his immense talent. I watched every single record documentary. And going back to a Broken Frame when Alan initially joined, I think Martin and Fletch were intimidated by Alan’s talent.
Anti Alan fans is going to criticise him and Alan fans will stick up for him , I don't think any of them lead saintly lives in the late 80 90s I think they are all to blame for something. I get Alans point he co produced songs out of choice and in the 90s is was probably necessary he did the work in the studio as the others were too drunk or on drugs . Yes Fletch had his depression , that aside it would have angered Alan to be paid the same as Fletch for doing most of the work .
Alan, thank you for all the music. I find Martin´s songs, sung by Dave and produced or whatever you call it by you and co. simply heavenly. Although I will always be sorry that you left DM I hope you are a happy man. Thank you for the music, sir.
Alan's brief return during the concert at the Royal Albert Hall was Depeche Mode's greatest moment after Alan left the band :( For one song Depeche Mode was finally complete again and the magic was back. Oh how i wish we would get at least one more Depeche Mode Album with Alan Wilder… But i respect this man's decision to not return. I just hope he's doing well and i wish him all the best with what ever he is doing right now.
I don't know what makes me cry more, the moment when the audience move their hands during "Never let me down" with Alan as if this is the same DM as with Dave or this moments when Alan hugs Martin and Andy and we can still remember how they never accepted him :(
God there is something so magical about Violator and the years leading up to it and following it. The coincidence of the band at the height of its youthful powers, the seeming innocence of the late 80s / early 90s and the fantastic memories I have of being a kid in exotic places with my older brother pumping Violator from his stereo as the soundtrack ... Thank you Alan Wilder and DM for so many years of profound music and memories!
Vince is a genius too... I love early poppy Depeche Mode just as much as their more dark sound with Alan. Actually the Vince era Depeche Mode is also dark in some places but yes I also prefer the darker Depeche Mode with the genius Alan Wilder.
both are 2 contrasting styles of playing but with Wilder they give them more edgy, unique and identity to DM, plus his background is classical is a plus.
And without Andrew Fletcher and those two guys. Besides, there's not going to be a 2020 tour due to the global pandemic. And with that being said. They all are getting a bit too old unless they want to behave like the Rolling Stones.
@@augmentedkeys5971 Noone can bring back the 80s. What remains is the thoughts and those specific sounds. The question is really: Will they retire not to overstress their popularity?
Pedazo de coleccion , no me quiero imaginar lo que tendran los demas integrantes de depeche mode, me he quedado alucinado con las 4 partes de los videos , ojala pudiera verlo en persona todo , hay material de años que era un niño de 7 años ..... salud alan y depeche mode !!!
Alan was the lens that focused Depeche Mode. Ever since his departure, the music has been myopic. No one is getting any younger. There really should be at least one more album with ALL of you on it.
Violator will have a 30 year anniversary in 2020. My wish is they do a Violator tour like U2 Joshua Tree and have Alan Wilder reunite with the rest of the band. Pleeeeezzzzz!!!!!
That would be incredible if they could get Alan back for that one. I still think Depeche needs Alan to either rejoin Depeche or at least let him produce the next album.
NOMO FOMO I did exactly exactly the same comment and analysis and post it somewhere else Dm violator 30 yo as u2 Joshua did and so on 👍👍 I also think there will be a special world violator box with enormous archives coming out in 2020
@@randycox3232 Turns out that you were most likely right all along. Since I posted my last comment, I've learned a few things about what Alan was going through, and yeah, he needed the money, although that was probably secondary to simply not having enough space for everything where he is living now. He had to sell his beloved home to finance his latest divorce, and that pretty much says it all.
Wish I'd made a bid for something. Looking at HOW much stuff Alan had, I can see why he wanted to sell it. One of his coats or a German gold disk would mean so much more to fans than to him, buried in his attic.
But he sold so much of it and kept so little! Alan kept a bunch of compact Depeche Mode memorabilia for himself, but sold nearly all of his musical instruments, including at least three that he had owned since before joining the band: Minimoog, EDP Wasp, and Wurlitzer electric piano. As far as I know, he sold everything except for one synth, his EMS VCS 3 Synthi, and one piano, his Bösendorfer grand (he sold his Steinway grand). I think he sold so much because he had to sell his huge house (and his car) to finance his latest divorce, and he didn't have enough room for everything in his new residence. He also admitted that he needed the money.
DM will ever be the world in our eyes! And we ever will remember all the members who were involved in such a wonferful story! The never ending story! ❤
There is a light bulb, there is a base, there is a filament and there is an electric current ... all together give a bright luminescence and individually only elements. Without Alan, the DM light bulb only smoldered dimly.
It´s like when The Beatles split up. Until John´s death all fans wanted them to get together again. Alan is never coming back. But I would love to see him produce a DM album. But I am afraid that it´s not going to happen either.
O, Allan... you're looking at Martin again, or at the audience, or smiling at the camera. And you play. I noticed this in the video a long time ago. I was shocked. No matter how hard I tried, I didn’t learn how to do it. Or Martin wasn't near the synthesizer.😂😂 No, you're just a genius.🎹🎼🫶
He was always the hot one and the one with the most heart. He gave his absolute all. Never did anything by halves. God, I miss him. I wish I wasn’t broke ass, I’d have loved to bid on something.

Honestly when Alan joined Martin on stage it was as if Johnny Marr joined Morrissey for just one song. Truly magical moment.
Yeah. We Depeche Mode fans really got lucky. No way the fans of The Smiths will ever get to see something like this :(
@@KRAFTWERK2K6 That's because Martin is quite a different and pleasant lad, comparing to Morrissey.

As Morrissey said “The only way you’ll get the 4 of us back in the studio is if you kill us and drag the bodies in!” Never subtle.

Аллан ты самый лучший, без тебе не было бы DM!

I still prey that Alan will produce and engineer the next DM Album 🤞
I love vinyl. That’s what I would buy.
Klaudia stop crying.... It's 22 years since he left....
a great pitty
O, Allan... you're looking at Martin again, or at the audience, or smiling at the camera. And you play. I noticed this in the video a long time ago. I was shocked. No matter how hard I tried, I didn’t learn how to do it. Or Martin wasn't near the synthesizer.😂😂 No, you're just a genius.🎹🎼🫶
Very cool vids, I'd be interested to see how much all this went for.
Nice Mackintosh chairs!
probably made more money from the DM reunion than from the auction ... it seems a shame.
(i wanted some of those "keyboards" =)
Mi Alan siempre serás de depeche aunque ya no estés en el grupo
Alan. please come back
Un verdadero maestro..
Emulator is easy to use if you are a musical genius like Alan Wilder
Aggro mix is the best dm mix ever.
Someone got themselves cool gear ❤
El mejor tecladista de depeche mode.
Playing Christmas Island was so cool
❤💛💚💙💜
Good to share with fans who can get it
alan and martin were a perfect couple for DM, but...
I think he was scared of so much success
I think Alan left the band not for scared of success, he did it for lack of acknowlegdment. He was tired of the others at the end.
Wonder what the OB-8 raised?
😍
