Mode2k A Retrospective Multimedia Presentation of the Depeche Mode Catalog A collaborative project between two artists originally from Plovdiv, Bulgaria.

MODE2K is a seamless set with both audio & video synchronized in real-time using VJ banks, captured from high-quality sources complemented by Shunt and N:Mode’s revision of the original audio tracks. The concept was developed when the two recently connected to document their experience with supporting Andy Fletcher's DJ tour. SHUNT //

After opening for the legendary Duran Duran earlier this month, I’m very excited to announce my next arena show — this time under the open sky, supporting the Icelandic soundscape wizards GusGus on 11th September.

Having the opportunity to step onto another major stage so soon after that unforgettable evening feels especially meaningful, and I’m looking forward to another major set, blending alternative sounds with contemporary electronics and techno.

Tickets are already flying at Ticketstation.bg, so don’t think twice.

See you there. 🛸

One of the things I appreciated most about the evening was being trusted with a full 90-minute opening set. My sincere thanks to the band’s management for giving me the freedom to create the kind of gradual, atmospheric build-up that a production of this scale deserves.

It became an opportunity to tell a musical story without worrying too much about genre boundaries. I found myself weaving together timeless records from Depeche Mode, The Cure, New Order, Kraftwerk and Pet Shop Boys with contemporary electronic textures, before gradually arriving at the deeper, more atmospheric techno that still carries echoes of countless mornings spent at Berghain / Panorama Bar and other legendary Berlin clubs during my years living in the German capital.

Those influences have shaped my musical identity for a long time, and having the chance to bring them together on a stage like this felt especially meaningful.

A night to remember, and without question, one for the books.

Thank you to everyone who was part of it.

More powerful shots courtesy of Pink Tsonk from our audio-visual show at SOFIA LIVE CLUB last week during Depeche-Mode.org Convention 2026.

That night meant a lot to us. Over the past few years we’ve had the chance to play lots of gigs across Europe and North America, but coming home always hits differently.

There’s something special about seeing familiar faces in the crowd, hearing every lyric come back from the room, and feeling that connection build stronger as the night unfolds.

For nearly three hours, we shared music, visuals, old & new favourites, unreleased edits, and the kind of moments that remind us exactly why we do this in the first place — and you stayed with us through every second of it.

Thank you to all fans who came out, danced, sang, and lost themselves in the moment with us. You made this show one we’ll remember for a long time.

See you again sometime soon and stay tuned in www.mode2k.com! 🖤

Sofia — yeah… that was special.

Big thanks to everyone who packed SOFIA LIVE CLUB for our biggest homeland show yet. Almost three hours, sweaty, loud, and a set packed with Depeche Mode (obviously), but also bits of Kraftwerk, Orbital, Nitzer Ebb, Nine Inch Nails, Klas, Revyu, New Generation, Kate Bush, Duran Duran, Camouflage, The Cure, De/Vision, Bowie and more.

Unreleased edits, left turns, and a crowd that stayed with us the whole way.

Still feeling that one. 🖤
