Two days after the release of their 13th studio album "Delta Machine", Depeche Mode will present their new long player at an exclusive album launch event in Vienna – presented by Electronic Beats. Even before the start of their summer tour across Europe, the band will showcase material from the new album live for the first time to their fans. The venue is the historic Wiener MuseumsQuartier, one of the largest cultural centers in the world.
Tickets for this unique event can be won through Sony Music, the Electronic Beats page of Telekom www.electronicbeats.net, and many other key media partners across Europe. Through raffles on www.electronicbeats.net and other sites, the most dedicated Depeche Mode fans will have the chance to win tickets by demonstrating their great passion for the band.
"The interest in the new album is so great that it seemed like a good opportunity for us to present some of the new tracks live and stream them online, so that people around the world can get an impression of it. The collaboration with Telekom allows us to utilize the technology that enables us to reach the largest possible audience," says singer Dave Gahan.

The releases and tours of the band, founded in 1981 - Martin Gore, Dave Gahan, and Andy "Fletch" Fletcher - have been commercially successful beyond measure and critically acclaimed.
