Aphex Twin and Depeche Mode....

Listen to Aphex Twin - Tassells and tell me that reverbing noise isn't much like most of Depeche Mode Ultra's album, specifically track 8, Jazz Theives.

Same synth? Or more to it?

Let's compare, shall we?

CD 2 TRACK 23:

Depeche Mode - Jazz Thieves:

There are tons of similarities between tons of tracks, I don't see why this is special. They are just similar by the way. The reverb itself is pretty basic really.

Suppose this one is quite similar as well.

Martin and Rick, Expert Knob Reverberate'rs would be a dream come true

he was saying in some interview that he was inspired by Vince Clarke's studio environment.
