3 - Vince Clarke
Summary
Vince Clarke is perhaps the most collaborative 80’s synthpop musician that ever was, having established numerous successful synthpop bands, including Depeche Mode, Yazoo, and Erasure. In this episode, Tony and Gus discuss their appreciation for Clarke’s ability to infuse synthetic songs with deep and visceral emotion. First up is “Ice Machine” by Depeche Mode, a b-side written by Clarke for Depeche Mode’s first single that captures dark and mysterious memories in a pop format. Next is “Softly Over” by Yazoo, an album track written by Clarke in the wake of Yazoo’s breakup that is complemented by singer Alison Moyet’s naive and yearning delivery. Last is “Siren Song” by Erasure, an intimate and ecstasy-filled album track written by Clarke at the height of Erasure’s popularity.
