Thirty years later, former Depeche Mode colleagues Vince Clarke and Martin L. Gore have reunited to produce techno for the new future. Under the banner VCMG (think about it), the two plan on releasing a new full-length album next spring, preceded by a series of EPs. It should be noted that this will be the first time they've collaborated since Clarke left Depeche Mode shortly after the UK collective released their debut album in 1981. So, why now? "I've been getting into and listening to a lot of minimal dance music and I got really intrigued by [...]

I was working at People magazine, living in New York City's East Village, and spending Friday nights at Sound Factory Bar and Saturday nights at the Roxy and Sound Factory, the legendary after-hours club in Chelsea.
