The man known for providing soundtracks to some of the biggest runway shows in fashion, Jerry Bouthier, is back with another Heart & Soul mixtape. Of course, there element of fashion is embedded in the sounds and with a top tier selection, it’s the perfect way to set off the weekend. In regards to the mix, Bouthier wrote:
“Here’s the fifth instalment in my quarterly mixtape series Heart & Soul
The original impulse is to bridge fashion’s evocative atmospheres with dancefloor aesthetics and bring as many elements of surprise as possible into a different kind of dj mix.
For three months any interesting track I come across I put on the side and when I get down to business I try to develop a story out of these varied components, a bit like a book or a film to listen to.
These mixes carefully crafted at length aren’t about the latest promos, I don’t even pay that much attention to who the artists are, I let the music speak for itself, not all tracks are recent, but by focussing above all on melodies, it (hopefully) makes sense once all meshed together.”
