Release Notes:

The PET SHOP BOYS are to release their soundtrack to the legendary
1925 film ÆBATTLESHIP POTEMKINÆ later this year.

The duo, accompanied on the album by the Dresdner Sinfoniker
conducted by Jonathan Stockhammer, release the album on September
5.

The pair performed the music with the Dresden Sinfoniker on
September 13 last year in front of thousands of people in the
capitalÆs Trafalgar Square as the film was shown on a large
screen.

Singer Neil Tennant said at the time: "We liked the idea that we
were going to take something made in the 1920s and put contemporary
electronic music to it."

Talking before the gig, Tennant told BBC OneÆs Breakfast On Friday:
"The director (Sergei Eisenstein) said that he wanted there to be a
new soundtrack to the film every ten years to keep it fresh."

He added that he and bandmate Chris Lowe also wanted to see
"whether we could write an hour and a quarter of continuous music".

ÆBattleship PotemkinÆ tells of a 1904 sailorÆs revolt, and
according to Tennant, the Pet Shop BoysÆ new soundtrack "changes
the way you see the movie", emphasising its "modernist quality".
