ʻO Pet Shop Boys (unuhi ʻia i ka ʻōlelo Lūkini ʻo "Boys from the Zoo") kahi duet i hana ʻia ma 1981 ma Lākana. Ua manaʻo ʻia ka hui ʻo ia kekahi o nā mea kūleʻa loa ma ke kaiapuni mele hula o Pelekane hou. ʻO nā alakaʻi mau o ka hui ʻo Chris Lowe (b. 1959) a me Neil Tennant (b. 1954).
ʻO ka'ōpio a me ke ola pilikino o nā lālā o ka hui
Ua ulu ʻo Neal ma North Shields. ʻO kāna mau mea leʻaleʻa i ka wā kamaliʻi ʻo ia ke kiʻi a me ka mōʻaukala. Ua aʻo ʻia ʻo ia ma ke kula Katolika ʻo Newcastle.
I kona wā ʻōpiopio, ua hana ʻo ia i ka hui mele mua ʻo Dust. Ua loaʻa iā ia kāna hoʻonaʻauao kiʻekiʻe ma ke kapikala ʻo Great Britain me kahi kekelē ma ka mōʻaukala.
ʻAʻole i komo ʻo Tennant i ke mele wale nō, akā i ka makahiki 1970 ua hana ʻo ia ma ka Marvel Studios kaulana, e kiʻi ana i nā comics. Ua kākau ʻo ia e pili ana i ke mele, hana ʻo ia i ka magazine Smash Hits a hiki i 1985 (ma ka manawa like, me kahi hoa hana, ua hana ʻo ia i ka hui Pet Shop Boys).
Ua kamaʻilio ʻo Neil e pili ana i nā pilina pili me nā poʻe ʻē aʻe no ka manawa mua ma 1994, Attitude, ua hōʻoia ʻo ia he kāne kāne. ʻAʻole i hōʻike hou aku ʻo Tennant e pili ana i kona ola pilikino. Hoʻopili ʻia nā mea hoʻokani mele ʻelua e ka pilina aloha a me ka hana.
Chris Low
He keiki ʻo Chris Lowe mai kahi ʻohana nui, he kaikuahine a ʻelua mau kaikunāne. Hānau ʻia ma Blackpool (UK). I kona wā ʻōpiopio, aia ʻo ia i loko o kahi hui jazz, hana pū lākou i nā male mare a me nā alanui o ke kūlanakauhale.
Ua hoʻomaka ʻo ia i kāna aʻo ʻana ma kahi hale haʻuki pilikino, a loaʻa iā ia kāna hoʻonaʻauao kiʻekiʻe ma ke ʻano he mea kākau ma ke Kulanui o Liverpool.
ʻO ka thesis o kēia hoʻomaʻamaʻa ʻana i loko o ka hoʻolālā a me ke kūkulu ʻana i kahi alapiʻi, hiki ke ʻike ʻia kēia hana ʻana ma Lākana (aia ka hale ma kahi kokoke i ka hale kūʻai mele, kahi i hui ai ʻo Lowe lāua ʻo Neil).
Hōʻike pinepine ʻia ʻo Chris ma ka lehulehu i nā aniani, no laila mālama ʻo ia i ke kiʻi o kahi kanaka pohihihi. ʻO kāna ʻano inconspicuous, ka mea i hōʻike i ka mea kaulana honua, ua kākau ʻia e The Guardian magazine i ka waena o 1990s o ke kenekulia i hala.
ʻO ka ʻoiaʻiʻo ʻaʻole i hana ʻo Low ma ke kahua i ʻoi aku ka kaulana ma mua o kēlā mau mea pena kiʻi i kaumaha nui iā lākou iho ma ke kahua.
Ka launa a me ka hana hui Pet Shop Boys
Ua hui ka poʻe i komo i ka makahiki 1981 i loko o kahi hale kūʻai mele, kahi i hui koke ai nā mea pena kiʻi ma ke kumu o ke kiʻi. ʻAʻole hiki iā Tennant ke ʻike i kekahi mau ʻano o ka synthesizer, a ua hoʻohiki ʻo Lowe e kōkua iā ia.
No nā makahiki he nui, hana wale ka poʻe mele i ke mele, he mea nui iā lākou e hoʻoikaika i ko lākou akamai, a ma hope wale nō e hele i ke kahua nui. ʻO kekahi o nā haku mele kūʻokoʻa mua i hoʻopaʻa ʻia i ka makahiki 1990 wale nō.
Ua hoʻoholo koke ʻia ke kuhikuhi o ka hoʻomohala ʻana, ua ʻike nā mea ʻelua i kahi hoʻomohala hoʻohiki i nā mele uila. Ua pāʻani lākou i nā kī kī.
Hoʻokani nā mea hoʻokani pila i nā ʻano like ʻole, nā ʻano nui: synth-pop, disco a me techno. ʻO Neil ka mea hoʻokani leo i ka hui, ʻo kona leo hīmeni he tenor.
Ua hui ʻo Tennant i ka mea hana ʻo Bobby Orlando ʻoiai e hana ana ma ke ʻano he kolamu mele. Ua makemake ʻo ia i ka hana a ka hui ʻōpio, a ua lawe ʻo ia iā lākou ma lalo o kāna kākoʻo. Hoʻomaka ka hoʻopaʻa ʻana me ia ma mua o ke kūʻokoʻa.
Aia i ka makahiki 1984-1985. ua hoʻokuʻu ʻia nā mele hui mua, akā ʻaʻole i loaʻa ka pane i makemake ʻia mai ka lehulehu. I hoʻokahi makahiki ma hope mai, ua uhaki ka duo i ka ʻaelike me Orlando, hele i kahi ala mele kūʻokoʻa, ʻoiai e hoʻolimalima iā Stephen Haig.
Me ke kōkua o nā mea hope, ua lawe koke lākou i nā kūlana alakaʻi ma nā mele mele o Great Britain a me ʻAmelika.
Nā mea i loaʻa i nā keikikāne Pet Shop
Loaʻa i ka hui nā album studio 14 ma kāna moʻokāki, a ua lawe lākou a pau i nā kūlana alakaʻi ma nā mele mele ʻaʻole wale ma ko lākou ʻāina hānau, akā ma waho pū kekahi. ʻO ka mea hoihoi, hoʻokahi wale nō huaʻōlelo o nā album āpau ma ko lākou poʻo inoa.
ʻO ka pūʻulu o ka pūʻulu he mau hui like me nā mea pena kaulana e like me: Liza Minnelli, David Bowie, Yoko Ono, Rammstein, Madonna, Lady Gaga, Robbie Williams.
ʻO ka duet Pet Shop Boys i manaʻo ʻia ʻo ia kekahi o nā mea nani loa ma ke kahua honua, ua nānā nui nā mea komo i nā kikoʻī a ʻaʻole i kaumaha i kā lākou kiʻi no ka kaulana. Hiki iā ʻoe ke nānā mau i ka mana o ke ʻano o kēia wā i kā lākou ʻano a me nā lole.
Ua hana nā lālā o ka hui i 10 mau kiʻiʻoniʻoni me ka hui pū ʻana me nā poʻe ʻē aʻe o ke kiʻi (mele-biographical, hōʻiliʻili o nā album, nā mele mele, nā palapala a me nā kiʻiʻoniʻoni).
I ka makahiki 2008, ua helu ʻia ka duet ma ka Guinness Book of Records no ka helu nui loa o nā mele i hāʻawi ʻia e kipa aku i ka English hit parade.
Ua hoʻomaka ʻo 1988 me kahi hui ʻē aʻe. Na ka Pet Shop Boys i kākau a hoʻopuka i ke mele ʻAʻole Makaʻu wau no Patsy Kensit's.
Ua lilo ka mele i mea hoʻokani nui loa a ua hāʻawi nā Pet Shop Boys i kā lākou ʻano hoʻonui o ke mele i kā lākou album introspective.
Hoʻokaʻawale ʻia ia e nā mana uhi uhi, ʻike ʻia ka hana o ke mele a Elvis Presley ʻo ia ka mea maikaʻi loa ma waena o nā mea āpau o ka honua.
I nā manawa like ʻole, ua hāʻawi ʻia ka hui i nā makana kiʻekiʻe loa ma nā makana: BPI Awards Ivor Novello Awards, Music Week's Awards, RSH Gold Awards, East Award, etc.
Ua mālama ka poʻe mele o ka Pet Shop Boys i kā lākou ʻōlelo hoʻohiki. I ka makahiki 2020, ua hōʻike ʻia kahi LP hou, i kapa ʻia ʻo Hotspot. He 10 mau mele ma luna o ka ʻohi. ʻO nā mea kākau o nā mele i hoʻokomo ʻia i ka diski hou ʻo Neil Tennant lāua ʻo Chris Lowe. I ke kākoʻo ʻana i ka mea hou, e hele ka poʻe mele i kahi huakaʻi nui.
ʻO nā keikikāne Pet Shop ma 2021
I Mei 2021, ua hauʻoli nā mea hoʻokani pila me ka hoʻokuʻu ʻana o ke mele Cricket Wife. Ua ʻike nā kāne ua hui pū lākou i ke mele ma ka pūnaewele.
