Along with the regular release of “Yes” on March 23rd, there’ll be a double-CD release including a bonus CD which Pet Shop Boys have titled “etc.”
The first track on it is a new Tennant/Lowe song, produced by Xenomania, called “This used to be the future”, which features vocals by Neil, Chris and guest vocalist Philip Oakey from The Human League. The other six tracks on “etc.” are instrumental dub mixes by Xenomania and Pet Shop Boys of tracks from “Yes”. (The inspiration for this bonus album came from The Human League’s 1982 dub album, “Love and Dancing”.)
The full track-listing of “etc.” is as follows:
1 This used to be the future
2. More than a dream (Magical dub)
3. Pandemonium (The stars and the sun dub)
4. The way it used to be (Left of love dub)
5. All over the world (This is a dub)
6. Vulnerable (Public eye dub)
7. Love etc. (Beautiful dub)
“Yes, Pet Shop Boys etc.” will also have a simultaneous digital release.
Stormzy’s 2019 Glastonbury vest is just one item in the excellent new exhibition, “The Music is Black: A British Story”, at the V&A East museum which has just opened in Stratford, London. Definitely worth a visit! More information at the link below. Neil x
