Are there any 90's mixes of PSB song doing by Zero 7?

#1 Post by Drem »

Last night I had a look at one russian blog about unpopular musicians (well, unpopular in Russia, I guess). Writer spoke about development of Zero 7 and mentioned, that in mid-nineties they did a lot of mixes for Pet Shop Boys (beside of mixing other mainstream artists).
When I asked him about these mixes, though he couldn't help me, he attracted my attention to another interesting fact which I didn't knew before: Sam Hardaker, half of Zero 7, was an assistant of soundengeener in Very' recording sessions. I checked my copy of orange booklet and found out - that is true. I smiled about twisted destiny: 14 years later he faced with Neil & Chris in the same Grammy nomination.
But, turning back to my topic question: can anyone prove or deny the fact that Zero 7 (or member of the band) ever had mixed any PSB song?
(Excuse me for my grammar :oops:...)
"I think it’s an amazingly good album, I’ve got to be honest with you. It’s one of the albums I feel most proud of. But for people who don’t really know us, and have a sort of an idea about us, ‘Electric’ is more what the Pet Shop Boys are meant to be."
(Neil Tennant, speaking about "Elysium" on the eve of "Electric" release.)

Sam Hardaker was just an Assistant Engineer for the "Very" album, like he was for New Order's "Republic" album also issued in 1993 which also had a track called "Young Offender"
