Hybrid - Enjoy The Silence

In 2011 Hybrid, having remixed countless artists but never
having covered a song, asked their fans to help them by suggesting a suitable track. The band received almost a thousand ideas from fans ranging from Kate Bush to Nirvana to Joe Dolce!!... and after much deliberation, they decided upon Depeche Mode's 'Enjoy The Silence', a much loved track by all the band and one which they considered to be ideal to cover. They subsequently kept the track under wraps to be debuted on their Classics album. Hybrid decided to opt for a sci-fi electro lounge interpretation which has all the cinematic hallmarks of classic Hybrid.

[@jamesfield2442]

Hybrid probably the most underrated band of all time!!!

[@JaZu]

James Field Honestly though I love them! They have never disappointed. I feel like those of us who know about them are part of an underground secret society 😂

[@UnbalancedBeats]

Not everybody is ready understand this kind ofmusic, unfortunately. We can find several examples in the history of arts.

[@JaZu]

@@UnbalancedBeats Like when Marty played Johnny B Good with the guitar in Back To The Future. “I guess you guys are ready for that, but your kids are gonna love it”

[@paultodd2838]

I listened to disappear here and was instantly addicted - wish could get it on vinyl

[@oomusd]

WHAT? It's Pink Floyd the most underrated band of all time ! Come on, we didn't build a Monument to their Glory on the Moon yet ! Clearly if we don't build a monument on the moon, we are still underrating how much Pinky Floyd was good ! ;-)

[@DarrenFlinders]

After having the pleasure of seeing Hybrid play live recently in Sheffield, they performed this, it blew the roof off the place, absolutely brilliant.

[@Menky90]

Why can't stuff like this play on the radio?

[@blattmanpresents]

It does. I've heard it on CityLIVE Radio a few times.

[@Aestromable]

Best DM cover IMO. And perfect example of sound engineering, as usual. Another gift from Hybrid.

[@jarredmcguinn876]

Nailed it comment wise. thank you good sir!

[@athenahepler4030]

My favorite cover of one of my favorite songs of all time. I fucking love Hybrid. This song is a soundgasm every time I hear it. I never get tired of it. Thank you for the post.

[@alexbetrozov8442]

This track like an alien that come from another galaxy with perfect technologies and very much advanced mind. We can only listen and try to understand. So great sound, thank you, Hybrid band

[@sneekmatrix]

It's advanced Artificial Intelligence talking and human reply

[@siobhanstrauss8492]

Was Ming the merciless in South Park? The evil bastards coming after other people. I knew that was a fecked up corrupt tree rat I sensed it.

[@seq2024]

Hybrid Depeched this classic track 11 years into the future. Need more !

[@JaZu]

It is so hard for me to pick between this and “Won’t Back Down”. Both covers are absolutely phenomenal!

[@GlidingWingnut]

An exceptional version of this song, clever composition and layering, great listening. Brilliant!

[@emanuelmelo6062]

Most awesome cover of Enjoy the Silence ever. These guys are so good at what they done. Gotta love Hybrid!!!

[@techdelux1]

Never stop making this great music! EVER!

[@jrs_devs]

They stopped

[@StolenEyesX]

Absolutely bloody gorgeous cover.

[@alexbetrozov8442]

My soul belongs to you, guys. This is much more than music, this is a part of human universe, sad mind trap, looping nonestop

[@AD-Dom]

Probably one of my favourite remixes of this classic. Good job gang!

[@qwertyCandy]

WHY DON'T MORE PEOPLE KNOW HYBRID? Boy, I love this version so much more than original. Don't get me wrong, the original is awesome as well but this version imho perfected the atmosphere of the song - it's much darker, more complex, bitter-sweet and kinda sad, exactly how I imagine the song should sound... One of my favorites from Hybrid. Why they have to be so underrated is beyond me...

[@jirokage]

So very very true. I say the same thing about zircon (Andrew Aversa).

[@aureolamusicdotcom]

Let's not forget the original was written in 1990, way before VSTs and the musical technologies that these guys had in 2011. Nevertheless, this is definitely one of the better covers out there by far. I've always been a big fan of Hybrid and their art. A masterpiece within a masterpiece.

[@PeterMoore350]

they will, eventually.

[@qwertyCandy]

@@PeterMoore350 Let's hope so, they are so underrated that it's criminal.

[@andrewtoombs3867]

I totally love Hybrids thoughts sound. If I had a radio station I would totally broadcast their majestik mixture of intutiion

[@NeONeC]

Чем больше каверов - тем лучше оригинал. A large number of covers indicate the beauty of the original

[@fractos1701]

I need this in my life.

[@ConfusionGrows]

One fave band covering another fave band? Winner!

[@7omta]

as a big fan of depeche mode , great job !!!

[@captiveimage]

Stunning rendition of this beautiful song. Can't wait to see Hybrid live again soon.

[@wiledog]

Hybrid = Sublime......

[@yevgeniyl123]

Wow that's Depeche Mode- Enjoy The Silence , Amazing

[@Freeden]

Pure genius. Best remix of the song yet.

[@CategoricalImperative]

I thought I’ve heard EVERY HYBRID song…. I know they had a classics album, but I thought it was just greatest hits, not remakes. Very Nice!

[@philharmonik77]

Hybrid proving once again why they are the masters of remixes!!!

[@MrTranceFury]

Just what I needed, thanks Hybrid for never letting me down.

[@mghorvath79]

Best cover ever of Enjoy The Silence!

[@juliettaloves]

By far the best rendition of Enjoy the Silence!! Was introduced to Hybrid 4 years back and not one piece of theirs has disappointed!! Everytime I hear this one, I picture myself as a heartbroken catwoman standing atop a building in a rainy night, gearing up to beat the shit out of the cheating lover!!

[@alexbuccheri5635]

By far? Have you heard Sasha and Digweed's version ;)

[@AnonymousPundit]

Alex, If you're referring to the final track of Sasha and Digweed's Expeditions, that was Matt Darey's Tekara mix of Mike Koglin's cover of Enjoy the Silence. Sasha and Digweed introduced that version to a very large audience, but they played no part in the producing or remixing that cover. Either way, the Tekara mix and the Hybrid cover are two really cool takes on this song.

[@alexbuccheri5635]

Yes, that's the one. Thanks for pointing that out, I don't own the Northern Exposure series and have always seen it attributed to Sasha and Digweed.

[@ailidog7420]

It's a "cover", LOL, for the sake of their request. And I can see why, though. Of anything they've remixed over the years (close second being Jarre's "Ces't La Vie" remix) this certainly has more emotion and soul than anything before. It oozes blood, sweat, and tears. Always love to visit this video...

[@mrAZcardinal]

Sends shivers up and down my neck and spine. Wow

[@woodykiddy]

This is awesome!! Absolutely loved it!!!

[@Qartoffeln1]

Bravo guys. Awesome cover of a master classic. Keep em' coming! Cheers! Q

[@LavaLampBlob]

This makes me wish KZbin had a "repeat continuously" button. IMHO the original Depeche Mode version is one of the greatest ever synthpop songs but this tops it.

[@Andromeda8181]

What a tune!

[@jarredmcguinn876]

Awesome track. This is AWESOME to play on the computer game Audiosurf.

I personally love the vocals.

[@andersonsilvaandersonsilva112]

fantástico top

[@TreborYl]

Love the cinematics, and the vocals, I think it would sound very interesting mixing these vocals with Peter hook's ?

[@pheonixR]

We are using this song in our Drama play

[@drewmode227]

Good taste!

[@kfrvr865]

for continuous repeat of one song put the song in a new playlist with no other songs open the autoplay on the top right play the song

[@SuePuRRs]

Wow Amazing ..... All I ever wanted All I ever needed Is here in my arms Words are very unnecessary They can only do harm

[@ArashiKageTaro]

Sue PuRRs I take it you’ve never heard the original by Depeche Mode? If not, do yourself a favor and YT it! 90s perfection.

[@patrickbently5769]

Never heard this tune before remixed what a perfect group to do this track hybrid your still the k9,s undercarrige

[@JanovSeldon]

Hybrid always were utterly fucking awesome and this just proves it in spades! Absolutely fucking amazing! Wonder what they could do with some Joy Division?

[@HybridGothica]

wow :)

[@spinback72]

Great sounds...personally i think the vocals are supposed to sound kinda jaded and they suit....intelligent stuff really...and great production!

[@axelwtf476]

TV3.... La Fórmula......

[@succulinnsuccerter5375]

Even thought this song is from Depeche Mode, parts of this remix made it into Ubisoft Ghost Recon Future Soldier. Hybrid made the OST for that game.

[@myfriendsiloveforever]

What do you think the instrumental sounds are a representation of? What is the nature or tone of the attitude or personality being expressed?

[@myfriendsiloveforever]

Pray pray pray

[@syntheticdusk]

This is what they called Hybrid...

[@Arbalested]

i love how it sounds, Hybrid never dissapoints! But for me the best cover so far was made by Cage9.

[@linkingisnonsense]

Is that Charlotte? If so, who's her back-up singer?

[@induspherix]

I 2nd the inquiry. Thus far I have surmised Charlotte with John Graham harmonizing the vocals in a crescendo, but I have not been able to find details on discogs to confirm

[@jessenix9487]

if you think this is cool, try Mike Koglin's Silence. I forget which mix is the best tho

[@induspherix]

I only just recently discovered that Truman & Wolff produced a Mike Koglin Silence breed, and it is the uniquely magnificent specimen that I have come to expect from their work. Of course, Matt Darey's Tekara mix of The Silence has also long been one of my favorites among the symphonic/progressive breaks variety.

[@acerlmt]

Nice! Неплохо!

[@Redmanticore]

to me, this specific version feels like a theme of very creepy obsessive stalker. but its great remix though.

[@AnnNightNoxana]

I am under the impression that this might have been the intention.

[@user-gx6pu4iu9m]

👍

[@MrHumanracin]

Anyone know who is singing the vocals on this track?

[@LOLZpersonok]

Charlotte James is the singer of this cover.

[@st3reo23]

Phoenix-Fly

[@agustipadrosrios1073]

F1 TV3!

[@th0rrz]

This would be so fitting in Cyberpunk 2077 god DAMN

[@rooqirulz]

Are the people who recommended this cover going to get free digital albums? I thought that was the plan! I'm waiting for an email!

[@neonate4406]

That's because that's kind of how the original vocals sounded.

[@teddyr101]

type "repeat" in the url right between "youtube" and ".com"

[@wesaam123456789]

I really loved the beginning the music is a amazing! I didn't like the 2nd vocals too much

[@Leimiful]

? There is no "second vocals" the same person sings the entire song. All the singer does is change to a higher pitch later on in the song.

[@omegalpha777]

Well there's an instrumental version too if someone doesn't like the vocals.

[@all.the.same.iProductions]

Sounds more like Ellis-Bextor
