Memento Mori is Depeche Mode's 15th studio album and the first in the lineup of Dave Gahan and Martin Gore, following the tragic death of co-founder Andrew "Fletch" Fletcher in 2022. Memento Mori was produced by James Ford, with additional production by Marta Salogni . The album was created during the early stages of the Covid pandemic, resulting in themes directly inspired by that period. The album's 12 tracks chart a wide variety of moods and textures from the ominous opening to the closing denouement, running the gamut from paranoia and obsession to catharsis and joy, and countless points in between.

När plattan kom i mars 2017 gick den in på engelska listans 6e plats, och låten Ocean erövrade hela Europa! Nu släpps den med nytt omslag, och med en hel extraCD musik! Mestadels<br/>remixer men det stora är hiten Ocean, nu som en duett med Dave Gahan!

Duon Goldfrapp, beståendes av Alison Goldfrapp och Will Gregory, med sitt sjätte studioalbum, "Tales of Us". Albumet är inspelat under två år i bandets studio på den engelska landsbygden.<br/> <br/>"Tales of Us" är Goldfrapps mest intima album och tar med texter om motstridande kärleksaffärer, spänning, hallucinationer, sagor och gamla vandringssägner Goldfrapps bräckligt och eftertänksamma poesi till nya höjder. Som en förgrund snarare än bakgrund har filmskaparen Lisa Gunning skapat kortfilmer till fem spår på albumet som också satts samman till en spelfilm.<br/> <br/>För det tidigare albumet "Head First" från 2010 mottog Goldfrapp två Grammy-nomineringar (bästa dans/elektroniska album och bästa dansinspelning med singeln "Rocket").<br/><br/>"Alison Goldfrapp sets her tales of the unexpected against Will Gregory's menacing musical backdrops. It's wicked"<br/>- Mojo, 4/5<br/> <br/>"'Tales Of Us' is relentlessly one note but frequently beautiful, and a welcome change from the theatrics of its immediate predecessor. A return to form."<br/>- Clash, 7/10<br/> <br/>"Tales of Us is beautifully, classically spartan. And it feels like a genuine second coming."<br/>- The Skinny, 4/5
