Alan Wilder Depeche Mode 1989 interview Radio Stockholm 1/2

Ulo Maasing from Radio Stockholm interviews Alan Wilder from Depeche Mode in the program Cocktail in early 1989 about why they recorded the liveLP / video 101, how to make the sound of DM, what it meant for him to join the band in 1982 and limitations in live performances.
Translation of swedish questions/comments:
0:00 I asked Alan Wilder why they did this film and why they recorded the live LP, what does it add to the groups music?
2:16 Alan wilder is also the latest member in Depeche Mode, it was he who replaced Vince Clarke. Did he have at that time any idea how the entrance in the group would mean to him and his future?
6:25 The special sound, there is a special sound for Depeche Mode, it sounds like no other band, how did that arise I asked Alan Wilder who is the man behind the Depeche-sound at a very very high degree:
8:41 when we are continuing our talk with Alan Wilder from Depeche Mode...

I could listen to Alan speak all day long. His soft, husky voice and lovely posh West London accent 😍. This is a good interview, quite insightful, tells a lot about the band''s working practices. It's interesting he says that because he doesn't mind spending longer time in the studio he inevitably ends up doing a bit more. It's a shame he never received the appreciation he deserved for the extra time and effort he put in.

his voice can be heard like a lullaby before bedtime

So true. I would love him to read me a bedtime story.

Alan is so humble. He won't take credits for being the man behind the unique sound of Depeche Mode. Or to say the least, he's very reluctant to do so. A truly beautiful man inside and out. And witty.
I love how he says "I'm not going down the street thinking, 'Shh ooh, I want that sound.' " 😍

No unfortunately :-/ , it was Ulo Maasing, former journalist at Radio Stockholm. I wrote "0:00 I asked Alan..." just to show what he was saying in the program! Today he has changed his career, I think he's working with infrastructure in Stockholm or something like that, I googled his name :-)
