]]> Depech ModeEMI/Mute is loosing around 10 acts (possibly) and one such band is Depeche Mode. Reuter’s news article stated that Depeche Mode is going to drop the label so they do a “different” approach with how they release their music. Also, the article addressed that Depeche Mode didn’t need a major label to fill arenas and have DJ’s fill their playlists with new tracks.

This is all very odd considering Depeche Mode has been very close with Daniel Miller, the owner of Mute, and they would often have a 50/50 deal and be as much responsible as the label was when it came to returns and investments. I’m not the only one bugged about this news since it doesn’t make that much sense. I mean if someone wanted to go indie, especially Depeche Mode, why would they give this up just so they can be the number one boss?

Seems awfully fishy, but eh, I never did enjoy Reuters.

As Always, Here is A Fix.
