Satyen Kumar’s show was held in the Freemasons Hall in Covent Garden, as part of the Vauxhall fashion Scout sponsored series.
We used just three tracks for the show - Pet Shop Boys ‘Domino Dancing’ which we totally remixed especially for the show, Malcolm McClarens ‘Madam Butterfly’ and Dee-Lites ‘What Is Love’.
One of the problems when producing music for shows in the way that we do, is that our timings need to match the sets of clothes in the collection. In the case of this show, the catwalk was much shorter than anticipated, which meant that our mix of the music was far too long, and was out of step with the clothes the models were wearing!
Luckily we now run the shows off of a laptop computer. This allows us to alter the music right up until the last minute so that it is always totally in sync with the show.
