This wiki offers downloads for the best soundboard, FM, and audience recordings of Depeche Mode's extensive live career. Tour information is also provided. We include as much detailed information as possible about each recording's background.

This site is not intended to serve as a download archive of every recording under the sun at the moment, although we are making slow progress toward that status. We do provide info for each tour date, however. If you are a hardcore collector and want every possible recording, even ones which sound like they have been recorded from outside the venue, DIME or trading with other collectors would currently be better options for you.

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 download here. This site does not host any recordings directly, and hosts only metadata files for the recordings.

We also have an extensive interview section featuring full transcripts and audio files where available, as well as background information regarding each interview.

Setlists for most tour dates are provided as well, though we are lacking info for many early tour dates. Other media such as ticket scans, setlist sheet photos, and pro-shot news snippets are also provided if available. We have a list of dates with unconfirmed setlists, so if you can confirm the setlist of a concert, please help us out by filling it in!
