Mute Mutandis
A must for muting people. This tells the story of so many great bands. Buy this if you are in love with Depeche M.

A visual treat. Thank you DM and DM, if you know what I mean
Wow! Thank you Daniel Miller for this treat of a document. My main focus for buying this was Depeche Mode and their 7" singles, 12" singles and album art but it's also interesting to see the other artists' work too. Always loved the walking man Mute Records logo.

Some Great Reward!
Yes, it's a little expensive, but what a treat. Beautifully bound, carefully curated, and every turn of the page brings joy. Arrived well packaged so no dents in the hardback casing or the spine. Recommended as a curio for fans of the Mute label / Depeche Mode / Nick Cave in particular. This is a keeper.

It just a story of love...
It is a beautifully produced book. Stylish and with care taken to reflect the Mute aesthetic. My only problem was that due to the binding, one of my pages missed being stitched. It is a shame, as Mute has been one of my favorite labels since the early days. A bit more care should have been exercised on the binding.

Mute through the years!
This is a delightful record of the Mute label, which has a very distinctive identity and which definitely shaped my musical tastes over the years. It's rather beautifully produced, though the binding is a little strange!

which looks like it wouldn’t stand up to lots of use
Unusual binding, which looks like it wouldn’t stand up to lots of use, but a very nice book, lots of detail. If you love music it’s a very interesting book.

Expensive but worth the money as the quality is superb.
High quality printed history packed with information on the legendary Mute label, showcasing not just the successful bands on the label but all of the bands. One of the best books on a record label to be released.

素晴らしいアートワーク写真集
MUTE のアーティストが好きな、特にDepeche Mode好きな人にはたまらない1冊です。 ほぼジャケットのアートワークなので、見ているだけで楽しめます。 本の背の部分が糸で綴ってあるのも粋です。
