Produced by pioneering British techno DJ Mark Bell, Exciter, the 21st century's new Depeche Mode studio album, took the group (Dave Gahan, Martin Gore, Andrew Fletcher) into deeper ambient electronic and acoustic territory while sharpening the pop hook edges in the sublime new songs.

Exciter: The 12" Singles, a collector's edition deluxe box set, contains eight 12" vinyl discs presenting four singles - "Dream On," "I Feel Loved," "Freelove," and "Goodnight Lovers" - with B-sides, remixes, instrumentals, acoustic versions and other recordings contemporaneous to Depeche Mode's tenth studio album, Exciter, originally released in May 2001.

Three of the 12" vinyl discs in Exciter: The 12" Singles are comprised of tracks first released across CD singles throughout the album campaign. Each of these new discs feature artwork reflecting the original CD single releases, to create newly compiled 12"s visually and musically complementing the initial releases. The collection includes electrifying remixes of Depeche Mode originals and the single version of "Dirt," DM's riveting interpretation of The Stooges classic.

The box set contains the singles from the Exciter album on audiophile-quality 12" vinyl, with audio mastered from the original tapes. The artwork for the exterior of the box set draws on iconography inspired by the original releases, while the vinyl sleeves themselves feature the original single artwork. The Exciter: The 12" Singles deluxe package includes a replica of the "Dream On" promotional poster and the large format poster that came with the 12" of "Goodnight Lovers."
