Press Release The Pet Shop Boys are very proud to announce the release of their brand new album 'Electric' on 15 July. Pet Shop Boys return in triumphant form with their new studio album ‘Electric’. The album is the first Pet Shop Boys studio album to be produced by Stuart Price. ‘Electric’ features nine tracks in total - eight brand new Pet Shop Boys’ songs plus a cover of Bruce Springsteen’s ‘The last to die’ - and has a running length of 50 minutes. The British singer and rapper, Example, performs on one track, "Thursday". The album was recorded in London, Berlin and Los Angeles over the last six months with one track, "Fluorescent", written and recorded within the last month. Neil and Chris comment: "Our latest album often evolves as a response to our previous album and, whereas ‘Elysium’ had a reflective mood, ‘Electric’ is pretty banging! And working with Stuart Price on a studio album is something we have wanted to do for a very long time."

Press Release Neil Tennant and Chris Lowe release the music for their first ever full-length ballet, The Most Incredible Thing, on March 14 through Parlophone Records. The ballet is a collaboration with choreographer Javier De Frutos and Britain’s leading contemporary dance theatre, Sadler’s Wells. Based on the Hans Christian Anderson story of the same title, it runs at Sadler’s Wells in London from 17-26 March 2011. Tennant and Lowe proposed Andersen’s story as the basis for a new ballet to Sadler's Wells in London in 2007 after a friend, the then Royal Ballet principal, Ivan Putrov, asked Neil Tennant if Pet Shop Boys would consider writing a piece of music for him to dance to at Sadler's Wells. Coincidentally a couple of days later, Chris Lowe suggested to Neil Tennant that "The Most Incredible Thing" would make an excellent narrative for a ballet and, inspired by this synchronicity, they approached Sadler's Wells with the project. The following year Javier De Frutos was chosen as the choreographer. The story is about a competition in a mythical kingdom where the King announces that whoever invents the most incredible thing will win the hand of the Princess in marriage and half of the Kingdom. What follows is creative, destructive but ultimately happy. Tennant and Lowe composed most of Act One in autumn, 2008, and the rest of the...
