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 . Some of the tracks were reduced by more than half of their original lengths in this way.

  • 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 . Some of the tracks were reduced by more than half of their original lengths in this way. 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» — 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. (ru)
