Main Page
This wiki offers streams and downloads for all circulating recordings of Depeche Mode's extensive live career. Tour and concert information is also provided.
All circulating recordings are slowly being added, usually in batches of an entire tour. All circulating recordings from the 1980 Tour up to and including the 1987-1988 Music For The Masses Tour are currently streamable and downloadable via torrent. In addition, all circulating recordings from the 1997 Ultra Parties and 2003 "A Night With Martin L. Gore" tours are available.
None of these recordings contain officially or commercially released tracks. Only recordings of independent origin or recordings which had analog or digital broadcasts are available for streaming and download here. This site does not host downloads of any recordings directly, and hosts only torrent metadata files for the recordings.
There is also an extensive interview section featuring full transcripts and audio streams where available, as well as background information regarding each interview. There are over 230 interviews currently available.
Set lists for most tour dates are provided as well, though information is lacking for many extremely early tour dates. Other media such as ticket scans, set list sheet photos, and pro-shot news snippets are also provided, where available. There is a list of dates with unconfirmed set lists, so if you can confirm the set list of a concert, please help out by filling it in!

Latest news

- August 13, 2015
- Added a speed-corrected fresh retransfer of twoshed's master FM broadcast recording from 1984-11-03 Hammersmith Odeon, London, England, UK. Stream & download it here.
- July 25, 2015
- Some minor additions and an upgrade:
- 1981-06-01 Bridge House, London, England, UK/Source 2: FLAC version, but sounds worse than the MP3 224kbps version (at Source 1), ironically. Made available primarily for collectors.
- 1983-12-10 Musenaal, Mannheim, Germany/Source 1: Upgrade of the already very good audience recording involving speed correction, 260 pops and clicks manually eliminated from the last 17 minutes of the recording, and use of a slightly better sounding original source.
- 1984-06-02 Suedwest Stadium, Ludwigshafen, Germany/Source 2: 7-track French FM broadcast. DJ talks too much. Had to make it mono (right channel unusable), and quality doesn't beat the complete copy at Source 1, but it's still certainly listenable. Another recording made available primarily for collectors.
More to come soon - about halfway done with preparing the MFTM tour for the wiki.
- June 20, 2015
- All circulating recordings from the 1986 Black Celebration Tour are now available to stream and download.

- Added a fresh retransfer of Brent Graham's good audience master recording from 1994-03-08 Tennis Centre, Melbourne, Victoria, Australia here: Source 1
- May 23, 2015
- New additions:
- 1982-03-26 Metropol, Berlin, Germany/Source 1: upgrade; good audience recording, clearer and less hissy sounding version than the one previously available
- 1983-10-01 Apollo, Oxford, England, UK/Source 1: uncirculated partial audience recording, but pretty bad sounding; this one's pretty much only for the collectors
