One of the most influential musicians in the electronic music scene will be finally making an appearance after a three year walk in the desert. After 10 top albums including 2 number 1's and over 100 million singles and albums sold worldwide, Depeche Mode is without a doubt the most enduring band still standing strong from the popular "new wave" scene of the 1980's. The band has released a long series of high charting singles over three decades. Last year in a press conference in Paris, the band announced a new tour for 2013 to promote the new album "Delta Machine".

Depeche Mode has always seemed to have a permanent attraction with the Berlin audience, they were one of the limited bands who ever played at the GDR, and when asked about their influences, Kraftwerk is always named as one of the major ones. "We sing about emotions accompanied by electronic music, Germans like that kind of thing." Lead singer David Grahan explains.

POKKETMIXER takes us back to the glorious days of multiplayer gaming and 8-bit monochromatic gadgets.
This was the period when digital cameras were a rarity and cell phones were only reserved for successful businessmen.
Just over a decade ago, handheld consoles were the ultimate item to be seen with for social credibility; "cool" was available to buy for just 90 euros. We used to meet up to exchange Pokémon we didn't have, impressed girls with our high scores, and sorted out our differences through mario kart tournaments. The games were cheap, portable, interactive, and were fuelled with all the latest addiction tools.
