If New Order and Depeche Mode had collaborated and then employed a German female vocalist and asked the Pet Shop Boys to produce, it might have sounded like this. And this is great

[@fredmila]

Martin Gore is credited on this.

What an absolute tune. Kraftwerk influences galore. So happy to see PSB leaving the sample-based stuff and treading new ground. Love their back catalog, but you can overdo a theme. It takes integrity and bravery to do something new when you have a winning formula and I for one dig the shit out of the new sound. Future retro at it’s best, plus it oozes everything great about Germanys influence on European electronic music. Will be coming to see you live. Nicely done fellas.
