Disco de Pet Shop Boys: “Flamboyant [UK CD #2]”

This is the newest release from the long time GREAT dance act Pet Shop Boys. This is one of their best singles yet. It comes with 3 12" mixes and a demo of the sly "Flamboyant" single. The mixes range from electro to retro to aggressive techno house. All excellent mixes. The mixes are:

1- Tomcraft Extended Mix (6:26)- electro

2- Sister Sisters Silholuettes And Shadows Mix( 6:13)- retro house with a guitar vibe and the cowbells from Lipps Inc. "Funkytown" thrown in. They are on a roll with the remixes they have done after doing "Good Boys" for Blondie.

3- Dj Hell Remix (6:34)- techno house vocal dub

4- Demo (4:25) beautiful

Plus you get the video. A+++++ set of remixes. Not one bad one here. Excellent!!!!!!!!!

I am really going to miss PSB when they stop making new music. They are so consistent in quality and style. I really like the cathiness of this tune (along with their other single Miracles). If you are a big PSB fan like me, you will not be disappointed. But this is a great song, I just wonder why we dont here it on the Hip-Hop infected pop stations.

Basically, Pet Shop Boys rock to their own groove, and they are some of the most prolific (and greatest) song writers and creators that have ever graced any pop chart. This is no exception. The original is perfect in its own right; I just like to get as much from them as possible. Each remix is perfect, and doesn't betray the original at all. The first remix is an extended version, and extended versions are ALWAYS perfect. The second one is a kind of rock-funk remix, and if you listen to samples, you think it'll be you're least favorite; well, perhaps, but on such a microscale. It really is a cool remix. The third remix sounds electro, which is great, because it's not a-melodic! The demo is interesting; like another official version of the song. The video is a nice addition, too. One way or another, if you like Pet Shop Boys, you'll love Flamboyant, and it's remixes.

Hey, Elio... you're wrong on two counts: The Scissor Sisters are a novelty band (not hot), and they aren't British. You are flamboyantly fu*cking misinformed.
