Dave Clarke’s remix of Depeche Mode’s “Dream On” will be featured on a new compilation that collects thirty of his remixes onto a double CD. ‘Remixes & Rarities’ is out January next year.
Clarke’s DJ schedule may be booked for six months ahead, and he may have remixed many of the bigger electronic acts - Depeche Mode, New Order, Underworld, Chemical Brothers, Gary Numan and Moby - but Clarke still doesn’t see himself as part of the overground. “I may be established,” he says, “But I’ll never be establishment.”
