Versace's Salone del Mobile 2010

It's that time of year again. For the fourth season in a row, I have mixed the latest installation in a series of compilations for Versace's furniture exhibit at the Salone del Mobile event in Milan.

The theme for this year's show was modern-day Mozart surrounded by mid-century design, immersed in a natural, forest environment.

I went for an earthy, ethereal quality in the mix, accented with flourishes of original Mozart compositions atop a layer of disco and electronic music. Air France was a central element in the mix. The space-age, organic quality of their music fit the theme perfectly.

Salone del Mobile 2009


















“Fashion is not something that exists in dresses only. Fashion is in the sky, in the street, fashion has to do with ideas, the way we live, what is happening.” - Coco Chanel

I've been creating soundtracks for the Versace installation at the Salone Del Mobile expo in Milan for the past three years. Each year the theme is completely different and ranges from space travel to natural elements like fire, water and wind. This year, Versace wanted something different and decidedly more disco.

The words "disco" are like manna from heaven for me, so it was a blast compiling this year's mix. I tried to encompass a range of styles, from contemporary French disco to 1970s era Italo-disco, with a little electro pop sprinkled atop. Enjoy.
