Pet Shop Boys have signed a worldwide music publishing deal with BMG Chrysalis UK ahead of the release of their twelfth studio album, Electric, on July 15, 2013.
Alexi Cory-Smith, SVP of BMG Chrysalis UK, said, “Pet Shop Boys are pre-eminent songwriters and we are honored that that they have chosen BMG Chrysalis to represent their music.”
BMG Chrysalis A&R Director Hugo Turquet, who signed them alongside VP of A&R Ben Bodie, said, “It is a very rare band to still be so relevant at this stage in their career. Electric really is a classic Pet Shop Boys dance-floor album.”
Pet Shop Boys manager Angela Becker added: “Choosing BMG was an easy decision. Ben and Hugo’s passion and feel for Pet Shop Boys’ history alongside the company’s clear vision for their future make this an exciting partnership”.
Pet Shop Boys today release on Blu-ray/2CD their concert film “Dreamworld: The Greatest Hits Live at the Royal Arena Copenhagen”, which is now available to buy exclusively through the official store.
