The title of this song is Rondo Parisiano recorded by a french duo Something a la mode in collaboration with Karl Lagerfeld and it has been used for the Chanel fashion show.

Interview with Something a la mode, it's in French
below one in english




Where does your stage name Something A La Mode?

Y: That was in 2002, we said, if one day we did a group be called "Something A La Mode."

T: Yeah, we did not even know which group could make a day of holiday was a joke.

(Yannick playing with the dictaphone): Hey, what's that button? "

How did you meet Karl Lagerfeld and how did this "collaboration"?

T: You do the one?

Y: Yeah

T: Do not put the dictaphone too close!

Y: You're right, it is not known or it has dragged it (laughs).

The real story, the true one day, we walked rue de Lille in the 6th arrondissement of Paris and you meet Karl Lagerfeld has his photo studio in the street and said "Karl, we love what you do, it made a little music and we want to offer you the ... "

T: (laughs)

Y: I'm waiting to Gnagngngna! I was gone yet ...

Not the real story is that without anyone knowing they have used our cover of "Little Bit Of Good Fee" on a parade and the next day was full of friends who call us and tell us "They have chosen your music for the Chanel fashion show "and we we were not aware, we were like eggs ... The motherfuckers were going to sue them and stuff ...

T: No it's more, we will thank them

Y: Chanel Two days after we called, and the true story is a little hard to believe, it's the end of the show, Kanye West went to see Karl Lagerfeld to ask "what is this song? ». . On the stroke Lagerfeld did not know what to answer, so he asked the guy who makes the movie sound in general "what's that? s ». I need meetings.

T: They called us ...

Y: Convened!

T: Oh yes it's a bit like that, it was a bit like that. I was a little scared.

Y: It had been a "Rifo" before you go ...

(Laughs)

Y: And behold, they called us, rue de Lille for the coup. We met Karl, were recorded for two hours, where the rushes. It has atomic bombs which he says is that Audrey Tautou class, but middle-class.

T: Actually, why there was the first appointment because it may seem a little weird. I do not know who came up with the idea of us or them, to the voice of Karl in the parade, then, there was his voice. And since everything went great in Venice, Karl was asked if we could keep bits of voice for our song "Rondo Parisiano" which was his favorite as well. That's why he agreed to participate.

Other projects are they expected with the world of fashion?

T: Then there was the parade in Shanghai, six months later when I worked on me a trick for Vanessa Paradis. And two days ago, I made the music of the last show in Paris with a symphony orchestra ( link ), I do not know if you saw it. There are other projects in the pipeline with SALM and Karl.

Y: It's a buddy!

T: There are not many people who pat him on the back, but there is a real relationship of trust that is being fostered with him and was really lucky.
