Режиссер Антон Корбин снял музыкальное видео с Сергеем Полуниным. В нем артист балета танцует под песню Depeche Mode «In Your Room» среди песчаных дюн на нидерландском острове Терсхеллинг.

Танец поставлен хореографом Росс Фредди Рей и по задумке отображает внутреннюю борьбу артиста — как в жизни, так и в мире балета после его ухода из театра на пике возможностей.

Видео создано продюсерской компанией Merman и является отрывком из документального фильма о Полунине «Танцовщик II». Съемки проходили в ноябре 2020 года, когда артисты не могли выступать вживую.

What If Motörhead wrote Personal Jesus (by Depeche Mode)

Here's an old classic Personal Jesus by Depeche Mode, but in the style of Motörhead! The influences of songs like 'Born To Raise Hell' and 'Built For Speed' can be heard.

What if Motorhead wrote Depeche Mode's 1989 synth-rock hit "Personal Jesus"? What would it sound like if sung by the late Lemmy Kilmister, backed by his iconic band of beer drinkers and hell raisers? Well, one talented YouTuber has dared to ask — and answer — that question.

His name is Danis Pauna, an entertainer and video creator from Croatia who describes himself as an "enthusiastic musician who plays guitar, bass guitar and also sings." And his Motorhead-Depeche mode pastiche ("Depeche Motorhead," natch) is just one of his cross-genre concoctions.

Watch the video down toward the bottom of this post.

Pauna clearly enjoys rock and metal bands such as Metallica and Type O Negative in addition to his obvious affinity for Motorhead. Other recent clips from the creator include "What if Metallica Was a Southern Metal band?" and "What if Type O Negative Wrote 'Come as You Are'?"

But for last month's "What if Motorhead Wrote Personal Jesus by Depeche Mode?" the entertainer had only one aim — to make the Martin Gore-penned classic sound as much like Motorhead as possible.

"Here's an old classic 'Personal Jesus' by Depeche Mode, but in the style of Motorhead!" Pauna said. "The influences of songs like 'Born to Raise Hell' and 'Built For Speed' can be heard."

"Personal Jesus" has been covered by plenty of other rockers before. In 2018, Def Leppard put a version of the Depeche Mode tune on the flip side of their "Hysteria" Spotify Single. That same year, Pearl Jam and Red Hot Chili Peppers members performed it at a benefit concert. The list goes on from there, underscoring the importance the English electronic act holds for many rock musicians.

Libra and Special Guests "It Doesn't Matter Two (Lockdown Version)" A Depeche Mode Tribute

There are certain non-metal bands that just have that darkness that still attracts those in the metal world and Depeche Mode often tops that list. During the pandemic, metal producer-songwriter Libra sought to pay homage to the recently minted Rock and Roll Hall of Famers by covering one of their songs and inviting other Depeche Mode loving metallers to take part. The result is an epic, orchestral sounding take on the track "It Doesn't Matter Two."

As can be seen in the video, the pandemic didn't dampen the passion to take part as this cover turned into a global collaboration with musicians chipping in from around the world. In addition to Libra, who sings and plays drums on the cover, this collective features My Dying Bride’s Shaun MacGowan and vocalist Aaron Stainthorpe, Apocalyptica’s Eicca Toppinen, vocalist Anneke Van Giersbergen, Paradise Lost's Aaron Aedy, Moonspell’s Don Aires Pereira, Type O Negative and Silvertomb’s Kenny Hickey, Athanasia and former Five Finger Death Punch member Caleb Bingham and Within Temptation’s Ruud Jolie.

“Since I was a kid, Depeche Mode has been one of the biggest influences of my musical development,” Libra explains. “So I chose, and completely re-arranged, one of my favorite songs, called ‘It Doesn’t Matter Two’ from the album Black Celebration. I only invited artists who I respect, admire and even some of my personal heroes. I honestly felt I would be really lucky if only one of them agreed to be part of this project. So you can imagine how I felt when, one by one, almost everyone I invited replied saying yes (most of them without even knowing who I was), simply after hearing the demo I sent.”

Anneke van Giersbergen said of the experience, “Working with this group of amazing musicians on a song by one of my favorite bands has been truly amazing, especially in times like these.”

Apocalyptica’s Eicca Toppinen added, “I immediately got very excited about this project when Libra contacted me. During this lockdown it felt so nice to get connected with cool artists around the world. All musicians are in the same situation during these weird times, no matter where you live. The original song is great and I loved Libra’s arrangement and the passionate way of working on this project. The song turned out great and it is wonderful how the video shows the way we were able to be together even with the distance. Music has power!”

Athanasia’s Caleb Bingham recalled, “When Libra sent it to me, I was impressed by his ability to take a classic Depeche Mode song and completely reinvent it into something all his own. Now, with all of this top tier talent on top of what was already a killer song, I think we’ve created a monster!”

My Dying Bride’s Aaron Stainthorpe chipped in, “Believe it or not but I was actually a member of the Depeche Mode Fan Club way back when Violator was released. I adored the band and was the only person wearing a Depeche Mode sweatshirt in the notorious rock bar The Frog & Toad in Bradford. My Dying Bride also used a piece of music by DM as an intro to their gigs on one of their tours but my age won't allow me to recall which piece. When Libra asked me if I'd be interested in taking part in this project, a 'yes' was inevitable and I thoroughly enjoyed my little moment when, just for a short time, I was actually in Depeche Mode."

Paradise Lost’s Aaron Aedy too expressed his fandom, stating, "The prospect of doing a Depeche Mode cover (a band I've loved since buying the ‘People Are People’ single, aged 14) purely for the joy of making music, seemed like the perfect distraction during a time of seemingly mostly bad news. I agreed, then upon hearing the bare bones version, was pleasantly surprised how good it was, even at that very early stage."

The track was produced, arranged and mixed by Libra at 13Eighteen Studio in Hollywood and mastered by the legendary engineer Ted Jensen (Metallica, Megadeth, Iron Maiden, AC/DC, David Bowie, Madonna), at Sterling Sound Studios in New York.

"The whole experience of having such talented artists trusting my vision was a wake up call, and the final result of this collaboration was a testament to the fact that I did the right thing when I decided to make music again," stated Libra.

All the artists involved have agreed that proceeds will be donated on their behalf to the International Association for Suicide Prevention. If you like what you hear, this stellar version of Depeche Mode's "It Doesn't Matter Two" can be found via the platform of your choosing here.
