Paris Fashion Week is once again in session, and this season, we’re tracking all of the notable show soundtracks as they come in. Here’s the second installation of our Playback series, here for all of your runway song-ID needs.

Before the Dior Summer 2027 show began, an off-putting buzzing noise from the speaker filled the room. The first model then walked down the spiral staircase onto the runway with his cell phone in hand, which he promptly plugged into the aux cord atop the hissing speaker. The club music starts.

Jonathan Anderson‘s latest range of garments is made for the rave, the collection aptly showcased on the bottom floor of the Musée Nissim de Camondo, emulating the basement of the bougie Parisian house party of our dreams. And Anderson surely didn’t skimp on the most important part of the rave – the music, of course – enlisting one of his dream collaborators, pioneering electronic music powerhouse Fred again.. to curate the original soundtrack to accompany the clothing.

“I’ve always wanted to work with Fred again..,” Anderson said in a message to press following the show. “He came up with brand-new music for [the show] and remixed it and re-recorded it.”

Fred’s custom mix transcended genre and spotlighted work from a myriad of global artists. KTNA, KETTAMA, Mabe Fratti, Jamie T, Christine and the Queens, Latin Mafia, and Headie One were all featured collaborators. Find the full tracklist listed below.

KETTAMA, THE KTNA (produced by Fred again..) – ”Summer Never Dies”
Fred again.., Mabe Fratti
Latin Mafia – “y como te digo que”
Young Thug (produced by Fred again..)
Fred again.., Headie One – “Told” (instrumental)
Fred again.., Jamie T, Christine and the Queens

While the high-octane mix made the disco ball-patterened trousers, playful trompe-l’œil detailing, and deconstructed formalwear that danced across the runway all the more alluring, the 17-minute soundtrack wasn’t, by any means, a seamlessly constructed playlist. Created in clearly the same pitch as the rave-ready collection, the Fred again..-mix was a bit more rugged and raw than the shimmery grandiosity on display. Tracks would pause, cut out, skip ahead, and pause completely, giving way to the next, entirely unpredictable successor.

After all, (night)life imitates art. To close on a quote from the show notes: “Soirée segues into house party. The euphoria of recognition. Yesterday, tomorrow.”
