Let's make this birthday one to remember.

66 years old (Born on June 01, 1959)

Happy Birthday, Alan Wilder! From your groundbreaking days with Depeche Mode—crafting sonic masterpieces like "Enjoy the Silence" and "Personal Jesus"—to your innovative solo journey with Recoil, you've always been ahead of the curve. Your talent for blending electronic beats with moody atmospheres has left fans dancing (and brooding) happily for decades.

Here's to another year of pushing musical boundaries and reminding us all that synthesizers can indeed have souls. May your birthday be filled with laughter, inspiration, and perhaps a cake shaped like a vintage keyboard—you've certainly earned it! Keep making noise; we wouldn't want silence anyway.
