Available at Bennies Fifties and the online Fifties Store

Rediscover the timeless music of Depeche Mode in a completely new way with Nouvelle Vague – A Date With Depeche Mode. The French musical collective Nouvelle Vague, celebrated for its distinctive interpretations of new wave and post-punk classics, pays tribute to one of the most influential electronic bands of all time. Combining their signature blend of bossa nova, jazz, lounge and French pop, Nouvelle Vague transforms thirteen Depeche Mode songs into warm, intimate and beautifully atmospheric arrangements.

For A Date With Depeche Mode, Nouvelle Vague travelled to Rio de Janeiro, recording with Brazilian musicians at the studio of legendary producer Liminha before completing the project in Paris. The result is a captivating musical meeting between the melancholy of British new wave and the relaxed rhythms of Brazilian bossa nova. Electronic synthesizers give way to acoustic instruments, delicate percussion and elegant arrangements, revealing the timeless melodies and emotional depth of Depeche Mode's songwriting.

The album features an impressive selection of guest vocalists, including Skye Edwards (Morcheeba), Flavia Coelho, Mélanie Pain, Beth Hirsch, Phoebe Killdeer and Fredrika Stahl. Beloved classics such as “Enjoy The Silence”, “Personal Jesus”, “Just Can't Get Enough” and “Stripped” receive beautifully reimagined interpretations, while songs including “Shake The Disease”, “Halo” and “Ice Machine” highlight the remarkable diversity of the original catalogue.

Presented on classic black vinyl, this LP is a wonderful addition to any collection of alternative, new wave, lounge and electronic music. An essential release for Depeche Mode fans and anyone who appreciates sophisticated, relaxed and imaginative musical interpretations.
