  • Disco 2 is the eighth album by UK electronic music duo Pet Shop Boys. Released in September 1994 by Parlophone Records, it consists of remixes of songs from their 1993 Very and recent B-sides. It was an attempt to showcase their recent remixes and possibly recreate some of the critical success of the earlier remix collection Disco, however Disco 2 is one of the Pet Shop Boys' most poorly received albums by critics and fans. The tracks on the CD were mixed into one long continuous megamix by DJ Danny Rampling. As a result, most of the tracks are in edited versions, having been cut off mid-way through in a crossfade into the following tracks (as a DJ might do while mixing music live). Some of the tracks were reduced by more than half of their original lengths in this way. In addition, some tracks were sped up or slowed down, in order to match the overall tempo of the mix. Originally, Pet Shop Boys planned to release an expanded version of the 1993 limited album Relentless mixed with their favourite remixes and they got Danny Rampling to try a megamix of Relentless tracks and remixes, but they were not happy with the results. A limited edition of the album was released in the USA and contained a second CD with rare tracks and remixes.
  • Disco 2 es el octavo álbum del dúo británico de música electrónica Pet Shop Boys. Lanzado en septiembre de 1994 por Parlophone Records, consiste de remixes de canciones de su álbum de 1993 Very y lados B recientes. Era un intento por tener en vitrina remixes recientes y posiblemente recrear algo del éxito crítico de la temprana colección de remixes Disco, sin embargo Disco 2 es uno de los álbumes de Pet Shop Boys pobremente recibidos por críticos y fans. Las pistas en el CD fueron mezcladas en un largo y continuo megamix por el DJ Danny Rampling. Como resultado, muchas de las pistas están en versiones editadas, habiendo sido cortadas dentro de un crossfade en las pistas siguientes (como lo puede hacer un DJ mientras mezcla música en vivo): Algunas de las pistas fueron reducidas a más de la mitad de sus duraciones originales en esta forma. En adición, algunas pistas fueron aceleradas y retardadas, para poder coincidir con el tempo total de la mezcla. Originalmente, los Pet Shop Boys planearon lanzar una edición expandida del álbum limitado de 1993, Relentless mezclado con sus remixes favoritos y contrataron a Danny Rampling para intentar un megamix de pistas y remixes de Relentless, pero no estuvieron felices con los resultados. Una edición limitada del álbum fue lanzada en los E.E.U.U. y contenía un segundo CD con pistas y remixes raros.
  • Disco 2 è l'ottavo album dei Pet Shop Boys, oltre che il secondo capitolo della loro "Disco series". Realizzato nel settembre 1994 sotto l'etichetta discografica Parlophone, il disco consiste in 12 tracce, un misto di remix delle loro canzoni presenti in Very e remix dei loro bi-sides recenti. Tutti questi remix furono mixati in sequenza non-stop dal DJ Danny Rampling: alcuni dei remix che i Pet Shop Boys scelsero di includere in Disco 2 dovettero essere accorciati di durata (in alcuni casi anche dimezzati) in modo che il risultato finale fosse ascoltabile e scorrevole. "Disco 2 è ottimo da ascoltare mentre si guida" dichiara Tennant "ed è anche ottimo per caricarti prima di uscire". Negli Stati Uniti l'album venne pubblicato in edizione speciale, contenente un secondo disco con ulteriori remix e brani nuovi. Contrariamente a quanto accaduto con il primo capitolo della serie, Disco, Disco 2 non entusiasmò più di tanto i fan e i critici, nonostante l'ingresso nella Top10 britannica.
  • Disco 2 is het tweede remix-album van de Pet Shop Boys. Het album bevat remixen van nummers van het album Very en van b-kanten van de singles die van het album werden uitgebracht. Het album is in 1994 uitgebracht op het Parlophone label van EMI, en was het tweede in een reeks van remix-albums. Het eerste album Disco werd uitgebracht in 1986. Disco 3 verscheen in 2003, en het voorlopig laatste deel uit de reeks, Disco 4 verscheen in 2007.
  • Disco 2 é a segunda coletânea musical de remixes da banda Pet Shop Boys, lançada a 12 de Setembro de 1994. Consiste em misturas do álbum Very de 1993 e novo b-sides.
  • «Disco 2» — второй альбом ремиксов британской поп-группы Pet Shop Boys. Пластинка сделана в жанре ди-джейского сета, состоящего из мегамикса песен группы. Несмотря на то что в Великобритании «Disco 2» занял 6-е место, альбом является наихудшим в творчестве группы: от него отвернулись как критики, так и поклонники группы.
  • Disco 2 är ett remixalbum med Pet Shop Boys från 1994. Disco hette föregångaren och kom 1986. Albumets låtar gick i nonstop och den blev ingen vidare succé för bandet.
