Pet Shop Boys
Pet Shop Boys’ latest instalment of their continuing “Disco” album series of dance tracks and remixes which started in 1986.
The 12-track collection features Pet Shop Boys’ recent remixes of songs by artists including Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds, Primal Scream, Paul Weller, Tina Turner, Claptone, Wolfgang Tillmans and more, as well as a remix of their own track “Dreamland” featuring Olly Alexander. The PSB-produced “I’m in Love With a German Film Star” by Sam Taylor-Johnson, originally released on Kompakt in 2008, is included along with Carroll Thompson’s “Let the Music Play” which was produced by PSB in the early 90s when it appeared in the soundtrack for the hit film, “The Crying Game”. The album also features the duo’s remix of Sleaford Mods’ cover of Pet Shop Boys’ iconic “West End girls” and the PSB/Soft Cell collaboration “Purple Zone”.
