Synopsis

Album Description
Here is the ultimate soundtrack to FASHION WEEKS 2003- the one and only official soundtrack of its kind. George V Records has compiled the music from this year's top fashion shows on this double CD set. FASHION WEEKS has captured the very best moments of all the cutting edge music heard on this season's runways in NY, Milan, London, and Paris. This wild collection features music taken from the shows of Dolce & Gabbana, Jil Sander, Vivienne Westwood, & other renowned designers. For music connoisseurs who know their 80's Euro pop, the House of Cacharel has unearthed a beautiful version of the old French hit "La Poupee Qui Fait Non" with lyrics translated into English by indie band Saint Etienne. Other tracks included on this trend setting line up include Queen of Japan's interpretation of Rod Stewart's "Do You Think I'm Sexy"; from the House of Fendi, the remake of Elvis Presley's "Suspicious Minds", and Mirwais' (producer for Madonna) realization of the Rolling ! Stones' "Miss You". FASHION WEEKS' line up is the best music that was heard at the 2003 season's showings and includes five tracks that were previously unreleased. These previously unavailable tracks include a remix of Royksopp's dance floor hit "Eple"- the official music from Dolce & Gabbana. Wild, kitsch, colorful & bursting with contemporary incarnations of 80's hits, this album signifies the end of self serious minimalist techno and celebrates the birth of post 2000 rock n' roll.

CD Reviews

Good thing I didn't pay 30 bucks...
J. Constantino | Tampa, FL | 01/25/2006
(2 out of 5 stars)

"I took the advice of the other reviews here and tried it out. I'm not quite sure what it takes to garner 5 stars, but this one doesn't cut it. I found myself skipping forward through most of the tracks on Disc 1. It doesn't take much effort to put together lounge-disco covers of 80's pop tunes, and it's just embarrassing to listen to them.



I would have given it no stars at all, but the last 35 minutes of this two-disc set make up for the sad beginning. The mix gets decidedly more adventurous - once you hit the Royksopp/Akufen/Zongamin/Royksopp section of the disc, you'll be turning it up.



1/3 gorgeous, 2/3 expendable = 2 stars



Since Amazon doesn't offer previews of this CD, go and listen to it before buying. Too bad they don't sell the discs individually."
Brilliant

"I was quite unsure whether I should buy the album when i first picked it up at the store. I thought I'd give it a shot as I have heard quite a lot of good remixes whilst watching the shows on TV. Once I heard it I knew I made the right decision. The songs are brilliant, great beats, great mixes and perfect for either chill out nights or parties. If you are an electric music / 80's fan then you should buy this album for sure."
