Alan is just gorgeous. Such a nice, talented and handsome guy. I love it, how he used to explain all this stuff with his smooth and quiet voice. It's nice to listen and to watch him doing this things. You can see, he enjoyed to show some of DM's work and had fun with it. He could be a very good teacher. He has so much patience. Really cool, I like that.😙
He was perfect in performance. I have never seen one handle keyboards with such ease as he did. Maybe Rudess from Dream Theatre , but I already see him more nervous in maneuvering.
We want Alan Wilder back to Depeche Mode it isn't the same without him, Plus we Miss Him and it takes many todo what he use todo. Depeche Mode hasn't been the same since he left.
It doesn’t matter which generation…each generation plays with new technology of their time. The Synthesizers was the tech of those days. They use it, made a successful career out of it and are world known. Love the DM family. Alan, to me, will forever be a DM family. 💕💯🇬🇧🎉
Meanwhile, Alan mastered almost everything in the band, Andrew Fletcher spend most of the time squeezing rubber ducks. That's why both of them never got along very well with each other
Andy refused to learn instead came up with this " I keep them together and I am the cofounder " so he didn't have to learn or to work. But rest in peace . we will go there too later . Life is too short for us in this earth .
0:25 this sound is used in "Get the Balance Right", here: th-cam.com/video/TciO2QIIRZ0/w-d-xo.html So cool to hear how the sounds from my favorite songs are used/made! Does anybody know where this is from and where we can see the full clip?
And what's his name again, wait it's something to do with moonlight - it goes with his eyes - it's soft and gentle, warm and yielding, deeply lyrical and yet tender and frightened like a tiny white rabbit.
That's an incredibly interesting question! What would have most likely happened is that Dave would become the chief song writer, so Dirty Sticky Floors, Nothing's Impossible, Kingdom, etc. would be the kind of songs Depeche could continue with. Add Alan's arrangements and synth wizardry to the Gahan songs, and they would be much better, probably even big hits. Martin's lyrics and chord structure would be missed, but Depeche Mode would sound fricken great! Martin is the king of slow ballads. Without Alan, DM loses their best beats, rhythms, and amazing sounds. Without Martin, the song complexity drops a bit, but the band would sound so much better than they have. It's also possible that Alan would contribute some song writing, but I think Dave would truly run with it!
We would all love a music teacher like Alan, but the problem is that most of us would not be focusing on the music, for the obvious reason. (Gorgeous man, all I could think about is:- how handsome you are, you really are a dish, when can we get married?) (Only in my dreams, ofcourse, he would never marry me - entirely out of my league, but so distracting to look at, can't focus on anything else, even the music), (especially the music!!). ❤💘💥
I had the privilige of having a dinner with Anton Corbijn in 2002. I asked him, what Fletch´s job in the band is. Why is he in DM. Anton said, it´s because he is best pals with Martin. Martin would never let Andy go.
Fletch said that Alan´s departure wasn´t as bad for the band as if one of the original Basildon three left. Basically Fletch says, "if I had left DM it would be the end of the band. "
@@vanillacaffelatte That only confirms Fletch´s lack of diplomacy and gratitude. Alan was the odd one? Yeah, he refused to party and rather spent 14 hours a day working on an album. Martin never badmouthed Alan. Neither did Dave. I had the opportunity t ask Anton about Fletch´s work in the band. He said, "He is Martin´s best mate." That is the only reason for his being in DM
Alan is an artist.. Martin leaving destroys the band .. Dave leaving eliminates the band .. Alan leaving destroyed the complexity of the band.. Fletch leaving .. I don’t think anyone would of noticed
@@RB-bd5tz yes I noticed and it’s a very sad departure, but not of my point that was being made.. I grew up on them , as my point was based on the individual talent and not just being a member of the band .. I’ll say a prayer for his departure, but the creators of their music are still here to do what they do to make us love DM..
@@22bk113 It's all good. By the way, I hope I didn't come across as an a-hole; I was just being a bit cheeky. RIP Fletch; I don't know if DM will continue, but TBH, for some time now, they haven't been what they used to be. Maybe, like Rush, they should pack it in. Cheers.
@@RB-bd5tz forgot but maybe you know Dave Gahan fronts for a group called Soulsavers.. in case you haven’t heard their music.. check it out his voice and their style of music is really great listening, well I think it’s .. some material that’s really deep.. anyway enjoy..
0:32 : _AL_ WILDER?? ;D ... Leave it to the yanks to try to save ONE syllable off a 2-syllable name ;D. Or did he seriously go by that name anywhere? ;D ;D
@@juliejules7780 That would be interesting to hear more about. If you or anyone else can link to any such interviews or any other source that'd be very interesting indeed.
Yes, I’ve heard and read his former band mates call him that. Sorry I don’t have any particular source for you… be like me and listen and read anything DM you can get your hands on 😂😂
Alan’s hands float above the keyboard with such purpose and ease.

The classic Wilder -- showing how keyoboards are functioning. It was so sad to see him doing same while he sold his famous stuff.
Yes it was. I wonder how he is now, years later. This world needs him while he's here with us. He's far too preciously valuable a soul.
He was perfect in performance. I have never seen one handle keyboards with such ease as he did.
Maybe Rudess from Dream Theatre ,
but I already see him more nervous in maneuvering.
Alan Wilder is such a charming and talented guy. OMG I think I've fallen for him.
Same here too .
I have fallen for him and I’m a straight man!!! 😄
What a man😍
He inspired me to learn to play, with his knowledge, wisdom and kindness. Lovely Alan the synth king 👑
0:56 haha I like the way he speaks, the volume on his voice fades slowly in the of the sentences.
That "voice fade" it´s not Alan´s voice, lol
Martin
@@FolkloreNegro so whos?
@@agonzo8438 no. Martin was at the start of the video
'slowly in the of the'?
We want Alan Wilder back to Depeche Mode it isn't the same without him, Plus we Miss Him and it takes many todo what he use todo. Depeche Mode hasn't been the same since he left.
Boring comment. Deal with it.

Alan !!!!!
I know this is a throwback but God, I soooo loved him back then but then who didn’t?
Lo amo es único y esas manos valen oro y por supuesto es mi rey midas!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️😍😍😍💋💋💋

Plays with such elegance!
Technologically sophisticated computerized keyboards
Sounds like a sales pitch.

So awesome 😘❤️!
Tora Tora Tora!
why is it that synths only sound great only mostly with Mr.Wilder.
Because Alan is the master of syncs
'only sound great only mostly'?

Alan number one good jobs DM forever 😂

So cool to hear how the sounds from my favorite songs are used/made!
Does anybody know where this is from and where we can see the full clip?
Is there full version anywhere?
There is. You should find it if you search for "Synths Revolution".
And what's his name again, wait it's something to do with moonlight - it goes with his eyes - it's soft and gentle, warm and yielding, deeply lyrical and yet tender and frightened like a tiny white rabbit.
Tora Tora Tora!!!
Sometimes I wonder what if Martin left instead of Alan?
Why is that? It's interesting.

oh the wild boy ?
Gore is the Brain... Gahan is the Body... Wilder is the Soul... and Flecther is the Shit... 🤣🤣🤣
Уже в тот период чувствовалось, что он набравшись опыта и связей уйдёт с группы. Одиночки чувствуются.

What is the synth that Alan is demonstrating?
Where can watch the full report? What was this from?

Come back Alan! Fletcher get out!

@Masha Seov: Since I know Fletch played a certain part in leaving Alan, I really hate him. The useless Fletch should have left.
no stop fletch is good
@@vitzthum9370 So did Martin, during the recording of SOFAD it was Martin who Alan had the biggest issues with.
what song does he mention at the end? I do not recognize it

jakubpetricek fletch is garbage. He should have left.
His handclapping is irreplaceable
Probably because Martin could have fallen into depression without his best friend. We need to keep Martin happy.
That only confirms that Alan was the odd one out and I bet he was feeling like one all those years. One of the reasons he left and there were a few.
