Finally fitted new batteries to this marketing monstrosity #DepecheMode

Had a day off work, so did a video #DepecheMode youtu.be/btvZa6ufxks

Arrived from Switzerland, which seems fitting #DepecheMode

NOPE it’s a repress #DepecheMode

I was in the vicinity, so it’d be rude not to visit @noiseannoys78.bsky.social and pick up some goodies

Massively improved my score yay! #BigBenGame for 🕥22:15:23 290 points ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️➖ Longest word: QUESTER vole.wtf/big-ben/

Something a bit different tonight, you’d think (until you turn the disc over) #DepecheMode

Explains where the Nitzer Ebb promo sleeve went… #DepecheMode youtu.be/n0O0bj5rwJU?...

Keeping the ball rolling with a couple of goodies from Fac1968 in Notts today #TheWonderstuff #MilltownBrothers

Off to a flying start this morning! Just picked up these two beauties found for me at Den Bosch record fair last weekend #DepecheMode

www.ebay.co.uk/itm/28649355... I have been assured this was "Definitely bought on release in the UK" but check out the third photo... Your quantum pendant won't work on me mate! #DepecheMode

Finally bought The Final on vinyl. Originally owned it on double cassette and then CD, now gone full circle. #Wham #GeorgeMichael

Boom - first go at lunch. My work here is done. #BigBenGame for 🕧12:32:35 264 points ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️➖ Longest word: HONESTLY vole.wtf/big-ben/

Explains where the Fortran 5 promo sleeve went... #DepcheMode youtu.be/EoOqMZ3WWtc

Bought some cheap officially sleeved Nitzer Ebb promo and Fortran 5 promo 12”s this week. No prizes for guessing my ulterior motive 😎🖤 #DepecheMode

Had a feeling there’d be an announcement soon. Will the 12-inch boxed set precede this I wonder? #DepecheMode

Goosebumps every time at 2:35 - Adam Lambert knocked this out of the park and such a poignant dedication... open.spotify.com/track/7h9IAe...

And then a Jesus Jones reference for another ramble on about #DepecheMode CDs. More of this recording ended up being edited out than being left in the final cut. Realizing that the vinyl records are way more interesting... gotta get me some of those... :) youtu.be/gJuMVmjsERc

Warning. This is warning. #GreenDay

Seems like my hayfever, which comes and goes, is going to be a problem this year…

Couldn't resist a Pele reference in the title of this video spotlighting some French CDs I've picked up recently, including that £2 eBay bargain #DepecheMode youtu.be/kWrHJjTnNxo?...

#NowPlaying fresh out of its wrapper 2016 Legacy remastered 180g vinyl of SoFaD which is massively kicking ass after sitting around for 2 years waiting for its turn #DepecheMode

My cold finally subsided enough for me to hazard recording another #DepecheMode collecting video. This time it's vinyl records only! Next time probably CDs only 😎 Please share with anyone you might know who would be interested... youtu.be/kRNVD_fENOc?...

Looks like another one of those over-priced CD single bundles, but… that’s a rare French CD! YOU HAVE A DEAL! #DepecheMode

Brilliant sounding bootleg! #DepecheMode Some Great Reward in Concert

🐷🏗️ I built a #Styscraper 🔺11.84m high! Rating: 🐽🐽🐽➖➖ vole.wtf/styscraper/ Not bad for an ill person 🤧

Got a bag of LPs from a neighbour (who was about to skip them) mostly Diana Ross, Tina Turner and Michael Bolton, but these have some potential, including a rice paper sleeved DR LP from Taiwan… the rest will go straight to the chazza

Let’s just keep going shall we? At least until the football’s on… #NowPlaying #DepecheMode

Where did 35 years go? Catching up with #DepecheMode on BBC Sounds…
