Even though I've been a big Depeche Mode fan for close to 30 years now, I got to say I've never hear this. So saying that, I gotta say this is pretty good to finally hear! Sounds like Gary Numan meets Syd Barrett meets Fear 2 Stop. Pretty sweet. Trips me out that that is Andy Fletcher on bass, too.
Ice Machine is more fleshed out than the finished version is (!), and already sounds like techno (!!), but the minimalism of the final recording highlights the fantastic dynamics and rightfully pushes Dave's voice forward; I'm not surprised Radio News stayed in the vaults; the enhanced drum machine/rhythm sounds on the Some Bizarre version of Photographic really does help the song to kick into dance mode.
Why on Earth do people assume if something is different or unheard that it is fake? This is clearly early DM. The progression from this to Speak and Spell is easy to hear. Gahan didn't settle into his voice, honestly, until after Vince Clarke left the band. Really nice find. Thank you!
Because there are people (myself included) who enjoy making fake demo versions of bands songs and seeing if they can seep into peoples musical collections via the likes of Napster etc! Question everything, its the only way to find the truth!
I do love every song of this tape! I felt in love with Depeche Mode in 1984, when I was 14 years old, and this also is like a treasure to me today, because it brings me back at this time when I was young and discovered this extraordinary, exceptional, sound I had never heart bevor!!!! I was electrified : so pure the sounds of bings and pings , so great the songs and the lyrics so deep, and the voice of Dave Gahan ... oh god! THANK YOU!
Being a total fan since 81 at 13 years old, I always heard about the early days how Dan Miller first regected this demo, but soon redescovered them opening for Fad Gadget. How historic is this demo!
Well, Daniel actually bumped into Vince and Dave at Rough Trade, but he was in a foul mood at the time, and immediately rejected them at a glance, based on their appearance. I doubt he actually listened to their demo, if the official story of how he later discovered the band while they were supporting his act Fad Gadget is to be believed to the letter. Now, I'm not saying that anyone is truly being dishonest here, but I think it is possible that Daniel listened to their demo later, after all, and made a point of going to see them play live. I really don't know whether that is true. Daniel has never said that he ever listened to their demo, but he didn't say that he definitely did not, either. What definitely is true, I believe, is that his initial rejection of Depeche Mode was not in response to their demo, he just wasn't willing to give these apparent "New Romantic" teeny-boppers a chance at all. Obviously he changed his mind once he'd heard their songs, whether the demo tape or their next live performance actually came first. Daniel has always implied that it is the latter, so maybe he really didn't listen to their demo, and it was pure luck that he joined forces with Depeche Mode.
Well Kraftwerk albums were release a few years prior so i guess it's not so far away but no the same execution or ideas don't get dat hard ass intelectual musicwise bs
I definitely hear the Kraftwerk influence. I fucking love the Photographic demo. The Speak and Spell version is more of their own version, not Kraftwerk. This was a real treat to hear. I still think DM is better than Pet Shop Boys. DM was never afraid of changing their sounds.
+IntoTheMindlessAbyss but PSB would never have gone rock like DM did. That would of been funny! I love both bands, although Chris Lowe is my No1 sound. Chris Lowe isn't as purist as Vince Clarke is. I love Erasure just as much, but the DM sound is much more equisite. This tape is fantastic!! Boy, I'd love to own this!!!
I saw PSb on the last tour 3 times - I’ve seen Dm over 20 times around the world . The psb tour was outstanding and better. Massive house sound laser show just overall a great night
Is is a proper gold mine....good work surfacin g it..i wonder how much this tape would cost now to buy ? Love this song too...im a massive fan of mostly the older stuff.
"Ice Machine" was actually one of the very first DM songs I ever heard! A friend had me over to listen to the 12" of Somebody/Blasphemous Rumours because I was a massive fan of the latter track. I actually had NO idea this was the "People Are People" band! I thought THAT song was Tears for Fears! Hah! The 12" had "Ice Machine" along with "Two MInute Warning" and "Everything Counts" as live tracks. That 12" turned out to be an EXCELLENT sampler! To this day the live versions of those songs are my favorite! "Radio News"... I have only heard this song a handful of times. Very Gary Numanesque! I mean, it's not great but it's better than some of the tracks on Speak and Spell!
hindsighter It doesn't seem likely, in the beginning they just had a Yamaha CS5/10. Unless it's something that it does. Maybe it was another synth, possibly Vince's Kawai 100f but I doubt that
I'm not an expert in DM gear and goodness knows what they could lay their hands on back in the day, but whether I'm right or wrong, I think you can't deny it does sound like an ARP Omni2, an ARP Solina, an Eminent Unique or a Crumar Performer. If you say Yamaha, I think of a Yamaha SS30; that's the closest sound. I'm thinking of bringing in an expert to settle this. See you
There is one more difference when it comes to the lyrics. In this version Dave sings "efficient, efficiency". When the song was released it had been changed to "emissions, efficiency"
@@depechecpr2217 Vince sang lead for Composition of Sound. They became Depeche Mode after Dave was asked to join and he accepted. In fact, it was Dave who suggested the new name. So at least as Depeche Mode, Dave has always been the lead singer. Besides, this is *obviously* not Vince singing. He sounds nothing like this. If you want to hear Vince singing, then there are some demos of that floating around, but if you want to hear a clear recording of it, then listen to Yazoo's "Happy People". Dave sang differently back then, and this is not a great recording, but it sounds like him in some ways. If it isn't Dave, then we've been had, but it's definitely not Vince.
@@antunivanovic brother, it's not so hard to make a primitive arragment with vst-plugins in 80-moog-style, to sing a song in Daves' manner, to record it on a tape recorder and then rerecord it again & again to make it sounds very bad with all the "white noise"- so we have a 40 years old demo!
this is depeche mode. in fact, if they ever want to make a real depeche mode record again, they should make one without anyone else. just dave, martin, vince and andy. that would be a brilliant final album.
victor chavez I would love for Alan to come back to Depeche Mode. I highly doubt he will ever come back. He doesn't want to be in a band anymore is what I gathered.
Just to add to the conversation on authenticity. I was at school with Vince's brother and he lived in Mynchens (cant remember the house number) with his and Vince's Mum and his surname was Martin so the V.J. Martin is probably Vince Clarke and his Mum's home address back then, from memory Vince didn't live there by then. So the tapes were possibly to give out knowing that anyone who called would get Vince's mum and messages could be left for Vince to collect.
His real name was and still is Vincent John Martin. And yes, that is the address he lived at. But none of this information is a big secret. This demo could still be a fake.
From the very rough bits of info on the subject that circled around over the years, CoS were an all-guitars based trio - consisting of Vince, Martin and Fletch. Dave and synths were nowhere near in sight when the three of them (if) performed as CoS. Vince reportedly sang lead very early on in DM but again, very possibly in live or rehearsal context. Anything we ever heard by Depeche, the vocals were always clearly Dave's (and occasionally Martin's, with Vince (and eventually Fletch) barely heard on backing vocals) - indicating this IS Depeche MK1 already and firmly in place, sounding rough a year prior to recording and releasing their 1981 debut with Mute Records. The phrase "Composition Of Sound" might have been present during early Depeche days, but possibly in the context of a (demo cassette) title rather than a band name. But apart from that, there's never been a true, genuine CoS recording of any kind, because it probably doesn't even exist... As a "band", Composition Of Sound was mainly a very early hybrid trio, historically adding to Depeche's "rock family tree" but apart from that, it bears no stylistic relation to Depeche Mode's (early) synthetic sound. And please, let's not get into the whole dilemma around the song "Let's Get Together" again, because that one IS MOST CERTAINLY NOT "CoS" - that song has been rehearsed by DM earlier on, but the demo that constantly circles around on the Internet is very possibly recorded and sang by Vince Clarke alone, not long after he left Depeche.
en esa epoca salvo quizas fletcher y vince ,martin y dave ni sabian quienes eran los kraftwerk. suenan parecidos por que los sonidos analogicos eran practicamente iguales en todos los moog.
+ANDRES GORE Se nota que sabes muuuy poco sobre la historia de DEPECHE MODE, y de la música electrónica en general. ME CUESTA CREER QUE UN FAN DE DM DIGA SEMEJANTE ESTUPIDEZ... A leer un poco mas, querido Andres!! “For anyone of our generation involved in electronic music, Kraftwerk were the godfathers,” says Martin Gore of Depeche Mode. “Radio-Activity in 1975, Trans-Europe Express in 1977, The Man-Machine in 1978: they still sound modern today. The electronic scene blew up after those pivotal albums. There were a lot of punks who kind of moved into a futurist scene, looking for ways to take music beyond the confines of the rock genre.”
se y mucho de verdadera musica electronica. A decir la verdad solo alan wilder sabia perfectamente quienes eran kraftwerk y tanto que su sueño era ser uno de sus miembros. Martin gore tiene un gusto por la electronica diferente a alan y a mi gusto es un gusto muy ingles. No sabes absolutamente nada de musica electronica. DM es la unica banada britanica que hizo escuela en la cuna del tecno(alemania) y fue gracias al sonido que alan le puso a las melodias de martin. Hoy dia suenan igual a cualquier grupo ingles.Te la mande a guardar y no busques info de wikipedia.
ANDRES GORE Te recomiendo leer las biografias de DEPECHE MODE, y de otras bandas.. Se nota que tienes mucha imaginacion, pero conoces muy poco sobre el tema... A leer mas, colega!! ..que los libros no muerden!! Abrazo grande!!
ANDRES GORE Veo que tienes muchas faltas de ortografía en tu propio idioma... LO DE LEER, NO SE APLICA SOLO A LA MÚSICA ELECTRÓNICA O DEPECHE MODE!! No te vendría nada mal, leer un poco de literatura... ;-)
Por eso vos navegas por internet. Dejate de joder y anda a dar clases de literatura a otra parte. ESTAS OPINANDO EN UNA PAGINA DE POCO INTERES Y VENIS A DECIR QUE LEA LITERATURA?. Sos un nerd que todavia no la puso.
It does look a lot like Commodore's "chicken lips" logo, although that's more like "C=" while this one is "C-" (Depeche Mode's grade in music class? Yay! They just passed! 😉).
I think the music is programmed by Vince, including the bass. Would that have been possible at the time? There's a link where a 7 year old kid program Photographic on a Elektron Analog Four. ruclips.net/video/3QWYeAL_OVU/видео.html Don't we think Vince did something similar, with the technical stuff available back then? Doesn't Ice Machine sound a bit too perfect, including the bass, to have been played manually?
Erano i demo o provini che davano ai discografici per fare un album. Lo si capisce dal numero di telefono. Oggi invece c'è quello schifo di saremo famosi. Pilotati dalle multinazionali "Sony" che hanno rovinato la musica.
Can we really be sure that this is actually Fletch playing the bass guitar? Couldn't it rather be Vince having it being programmed? Like in this great clip (hope link works): ruclips.net/video/3QWYeAL_OVU/видео.html Anyway, it's a youtube-link ending with v=3QWYeAL_OVU

ICE MACHINE is soooo good here! I started dancing to it instantly!
Ice Machine and Photographic. Priceless!
Wspaniałe demo. Tak narodzili się Depesze.
Even though I've been a big Depeche Mode fan for close to 30 years now, I got to say I've never hear this. So saying that, I gotta say this is pretty good to finally hear! Sounds like Gary Numan meets Syd Barrett meets Fear 2 Stop. Pretty sweet.
Trips me out that that is Andy Fletcher on bass, too.
Billy Castillo Gary Numan, Kraftwerk and OMD mixing
If this is DM, I am God. How can you ever think that this is DM??? FFS.
Ice Machine is more fleshed out than the finished version is (!), and already sounds like techno (!!), but the minimalism of the final recording highlights the fantastic dynamics and rightfully pushes Dave's voice forward; I'm not surprised Radio News stayed in the vaults; the enhanced drum machine/rhythm sounds on the Some Bizarre version of Photographic really does help the song to kick into dance mode.
Radio News sounds a lot like Gary Numan/Tubeway Army. Unusual for them, but not bad at all. 🙂
Why on Earth do people assume if something is different or unheard that it is fake? This is clearly early DM. The progression from this to Speak and Spell is easy to hear. Gahan didn't settle into his voice, honestly, until after Vince Clarke left the band. Really nice find. Thank you!
yeah that's bugging me as well.
bioLarzen It's a competitive world. Everything counts in large amounts.
Where is your ears, people?! It's not Dave, it's not Vince! It uses ways of SGR-tour version by ACW. It's just fake.

Ahh 'Ice Machine'. Vince's very early little wonder. Interesting to hear a real guitar for the bass line here!
Almost Wire or New Order-ish
This is so Kraftwerk, really nice
This has not nothing to do with Kraftwerk
I'd say it's a bit closer to Grauzone in terms of musicianship, but no doubt DM were influenced by the Berlin scene.
You never listened to Kraftwerk
Well Kraftwerk albums were release a few years prior so i guess it's not so far away but no the same execution or ideas don't get dat hard ass intelectual musicwise bs
Innovative for the time. The brilliance of Depeche Mode is apparent here at this early stage.
Amazing, this Bass was played by Flech!!
Depeche Mode es fue y será una de las bandas icónicas de la música mundial. Gracias por todo, hasta siempre !
These demos sound so cute, love you Depeche mode
Is great I love Depeche Mode thanks for sharing ♥️🍒💖
Very nice... to hear first time, a little other side of depeche 😊😊👍
Wow, this is really innovative stuff! And they were all practically kids, as well.
DM listener from way back, it's nice to hear some of their original stuff before the lyrics devolved in to just f'in and drugs
wow... love the percussion sounds
its a boss dr-55 ryhthm machine
impresionante, que buen material!"!!!!!!!!!
ice machine, my favourite, can't believe it only made a B side

Zwei der besten Depeche Mode Songs. Ice Maschine und Photographic.
amazing find
superb!
Fascinating! Thanks so much for this.
Amazing!!!! Thanks for this!!
I've never heard this tape before
They were way ahead of their time.
Still are mate.
Time to revive the 80's \0 :)
That tape is awesome. Someone is probably proud to own it.
This is awsome!
...great early work:-)
Gary Numan and Joy Division seem to be the main influences.
Ice Machine reminds me of Omd - Almost
Kraftwerk too..
@@mattidohmeier5260 I don't hear it. More like French guys are audiable.
@@damian2779 Yep. OMD was very influential those days.

There seem to be ARP Omni2 strings starting at 2:54, but I've never heard a completed DM song with that kind of string machine.

Really interesting! 🎖
No Kraftwerk then no DM any other synth-pop for that matter.
KINGDOM!!! :D
¡Maravilloso!
Wow 😍
I didnt know fletcher played bass on this demo
There is no Fletcher here, no Gore or Gahan & Clark, because it's a cover made by some unknown guys
ICE MACHINEEE!
Sounds almost punk but with synths.
Rock n"roll on synths.
Someone plays bass guitar on these songs. I guess it must be Andy Fletcher.
Madis Aesma It is
