It's on Youtube's section but I think it deserves a thread.

I've never seen such an extravagant behaviour from Chris (except that peformance on American TV with Jay Leno). Specially, at the end.

It was in Italy in Festivalbar, Siena, 1987:

I like the fact that Chris putting his arms up twice is considered extravagant behavior.

Are you playing the keyboards and before the final you get away and start moving your arms facing the public? Well, I suppose he wanted to show us he doesn't really play the keyboards.

But I suppose the...

Hi.

Let me start off with this one..

I’ve taken the liberty of starting a new thread to help us separate chat about the new EP.

I’ve spent a bit of time re-reading the 2016 edition of Literally. There was obviously unfinished business from the Super songwriting sessions. First, there was the mooted “dark techno” album which...

Well, basically it's Sony Sub. They distribute for some good artists, according to Wikipedia: Girl in Red, Lil Peep, Moby, Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds, R3HAB, The Wombats ... only to name some artists. Pet Shop Boys make a good addition. :)

So they’re not with Kobalt anymore?
They are. It looks...

Since 2011 BBC4 has been airing Top of the Pops episodes, in chronological order from 1976 onwards. This week the episode originally aired on 08 August 1985 will be shown, which means PSB'S first appearence from November 1985 is just around the corner, and from that point they will be making...

Absolutely fabulous was on this week. I know it's history now but watching it in 'real time', it reminded me why it's still their biggest mistake. You've got The Prodigy entering the top ten with the mighty No Good, Pulp on the next show with the peerless Babies and here's Neil and Chris with an...

Depeche Mode's new album is out, What do we think of it?
It's produced by the person working on PSB's upcoming album. And obviously Depeche Mode are a synth duo just like PSB.

Hopefully we get Neil & Chris' opinion of the album soon. No doubt they've got the finger on the pulse with this...

Ghosts Again is easily the best song on the album,nothing else really caught my attention a 5/10 album for me .

Wow... I mean... let's admit it relentless is truly a gem, I'ts quite a masterpiece, it's probably the most consistent piece of work (with Battleship) that the Boys have ever done?!?

Last post

as an experiment, i've created very VERY relentless.

its an instrumental version of the other 5 songs, without vocals,
and segued them into each other, its about a half hour long.

its nice ambient, background sounding. i enjoyed making it.

New remix of Rent on Apple Music

Love this. By DJ Tim Sweeny (Beats In Space 054). Presumably a series of mixes. It isn’t very long, but it’s a banger.

I refuse to listen until Negative 1 tells us if this is good.

i don't like the original rent remixes.

but i will give this a thumbs up.
it sounds professional, and is decent enough to listen to.

but i wouldn't call it official.
yes, there are tons of these kinds of mixes out there.

I hate to say it but it seems they're youth has run out. Their last album was a sign of their demise with doomed to hell songs like Burning The Heather and Will-O-The Wisp. Perhaps they will be forgotten in the back passages of time. I suppose their time is over and they can no longer get...

Title: Synthetic Dreams

Verse 1:
In a world of endless screens
Our hearts are numb and our minds are mean
We're chasing shadows in the night
Searching for meaning in a synthetic life

Synthetic dreams, they never fade

In conversation with the legendary DJ and producer François Kevorkian live in person at the British Library or online this Thursday 9th March.

Unfortunately I can’t attend but would be interesting to hear about his work especially with PSB. His version of Rent is my atf record ever.

Last post

He’s still super talented. He would’ve made a good choice as producer.
