I know a lot of Depeche Mode fans really enjoyed Royksopp's cover of "Ice Machine" and it's very cool to see that some remixes from Ewan Pearson have just been made available. The cover was a studio version which features vocals from Susanne Sundfør for the Late Night Tales series. A special limited edition red 10″ vinyl was presses up for Record Store Day in the UK just this year and now we have some great remixes to add to it.

I hope you'll listen to 101 or pop in the DVD today to relive the moment of the night, the first time you saw the VHS, or just...

Much to my surprise, I just stumbled upon an unexpected upload. The gallery 'The Modern Institute', which is about to exhibit Jeremy Deller (one of the directors)'s work soon, has uploaded the full version of 'Poster On The Walls'. Being originally intended as an extra feature on the 'The Best Of Vol. 1' DVD, Mute didn't approve the result but nevertheless retained its copyrights. This meant that Jeremy Deller and Nick Abrahams could only show the documentary at screenings, and never release it digitally or as a hard copy.
