# The Week in EB: March 17, 2013
[The Week in EB][1]{: target="_blank"} features our choice of this
week's ElectronicBeats.net contents, served up in one place, once a
week. The idea is that it offers an opportunity to catch up with what
we've been getting excited about over the last seven days. Of course,
it's become a truism to remark that we live in an era of information
saturation; where every day our attention spans are torn asunder by
channels competing for our eyes and ears and keystrokes and mouseclicks.
Nevermind all that, though, sometimes quality is where it's at. Here's
the cream of the crop.
[][2]{: rel="attachment wp-att-45164"}[*"Through That Darkness You'll Find the Light": A.J. Samuels interviews
Depeche Mode's Dave Gahan*][3]
In this exclusive preview of our upcoming print magazine, we present the
full interview with Depeche Mode frontman Dave Gahan, speaking candidly
about his youth, drug use, and the band's new album Delta Machine.
/
[][4]{: rel="attachment wp-att-45167"}[*An interview with James Blake*][5]
We speak with the British producer, songwriter and vocalist in advance
of his appearance at our Cologne festival on May 16th and his second
album.
/
[][6]{: rel="attachment wp-att-45170"}[*Justus Köhncke recalls
his Depeche Moment *][7]
Kompakt's acclaimed producer of slo-mo techno minimalism details his
experience of remixing the Depeche Mode single "Peace", cementing his
long held belief that, above all else, they're great songwriters.
/
[][8]{: rel="attachment wp-att-45174"}
[James Pants recommends 情報デスクVIRTUAL's *札幌コンテンポラリー*][9]
The Stones Throw-signed idiosyncratic producer/multi-instrumentalist and
crazy record collector James Pants falls down the YouTube rabbit hole
and comes out the other side clutching a handful of vaporwave. See him
live at our festival in Bratislava on April 19th.
/
[][10]{: rel="attachment wp-att-45175"}[*The Death of Rave: panel discussions from CTM.13*][11]

Stare's The Weight of Culture*][13]

stories.
