is the dior music available anywhere?

[shinobi2000]

I love it how the Dior website has the soundtracks from Slimane's runway shows but I wish I could download it or buy it somewhere. This is a long shot probably but does anyone know where/how I can do this?

[thomas_highstreet]

[thomas_highstreet]

Supposedly, they created a 15 minute version of the song and honestly, the bridge they added, "it's days like these that will put me on my knees" really makes it. A friend told me about their performance previously (believe they used to be called the superheroes) and they really weren't anything special. Hooray for fashionhype.

The Hedi Slimane article in the New Yorker from a few weeks past delves into their collaboration further: http://www.newyorker.com/fact/content/articles/060320fa_fact

^^ Such a good feckin' article...

[mlproject]

nice find... good stuff along the lines of young knives, rakes, rifles, libertines...

[shinobi2000]

thanks for pointing out the name of the band...I can read you know :-) hehe. Seriously though, I know who the performers are, I know what the songs are called, but if I'm not mstaken, Hedi commissions them to record specifically for the show and I'm wondering if THAT recording is available anywhere. I had actually just read that New Yorker article before my original post so that's what got me wondering about these bands. I've found some random samplings of the other groups like Razorlight (some good, some not so good) but what I'm really interested in is the actual recording for the runway show. The Eight Legs song is great, so is the the Razorlight song. Dunno where to find recordings of them though.

And I second the awesome nature of that New Yorker article. This man must be an anal-perfectionist-control freak and I mean that in a good way!

[thomas_highstreet]

alright then brainiac.

why dont you use your fucking noggin and get in contact with the band?

I liked 8 legs. Until I overplayed the 3 songs available and the 4th is looking bad.

God bless repeat.
