Description
Having closed 2021 with a critically acclaimed sold-out UK tour, Soft Cell share new single Purple Zone, a new collaboration with Pet Shop Boys taken from their eagerly anticipated fifth studio album Happiness Not Included. Having attended one of the tours London shows at which the new track was performed, Pet Shop Boys immediately picked out Purple Zone as one of their favourites from the evening. The two legends of electro-pop initially planned for Pet Shop Boys to remix the song, but this quickly mutated into a full collaboration. Purple Zone is now a dream duet for synth-pop connoisseurs as Marc Almonds ultra-expressive delivery intertwines with Neil Tennants wistful yearning, encapsulating the existential questions about the passing of time that are posed throughout the course of the album. Raising its tempo, Pet Shop Boys also added a hi-NRG sheen that elevates the tracks moody melancholy, Chris Lowes trademark high- drama synths producing a theatrical intensity. This 12 vinyl boasts a full selection of mixes by Pet Shop Boys.
