The first single to be released from “Elysium”, the new PSB album, is entitled “Winner” and will be given its world premiere next Monday morning, July 2nd, on The Ken Bruce Show on BBC Radio 2 in the UK between 9.30 and 12.
On the next day, July 3rd, the track will become available for purchase from iTunes.
On August 6th, the single will be released on CD (with three bonus tracks) and as two digital bundles (including bonus tracks and remixes).
Like the rest of the album, “Winner” was produced in Los Angeles by Andrew Dawson and Pet Shop Boys. It has an orchestral arrangement by Joachim Horsley, Andrew Dawson and Ben Leathers.
We will have confirmed worldwide release dates for “Elysium” next week. Meanwhile, as a taster for the new album, a video for a track entitled “Invisible” can be seen below.
We are sad to hear that the distinguished British photographer Martin Parr, famous for his wryly distinctive images of everyday life, has died. In 2002 we asked him to direct the video for our song “London” and he made a short film which, in its combination of urban pathos and quirky London street life, was instantly recognisable as his work. We send our sincere condolences to his family and friends. Neil and Chris xx
