«On connaît la musique. Et la musique, vous allez la retrouver dans ce numéro de Wad. La musique et la mode bien sûr, qui avancent depuis toujours main dans la main. En stéréo. En une éternelle re-naissance. Regardez un peu les mouvements musicaux : l’univers électronique dans lequel nous baignons n’est pas né de nulle part. Et même s’il apporte sa part d ‘innovation, il n’hésite pas à aller puiser dans le passé. Le rap, la house s’inspire largement de ce qui s’est fait avant eux. Il ya souvent de vieilles résurgences disco dans la house. Il y a souvent de lointains échos rock dans le rap. Ce peut être discret, ou très net : une dizaine de DJ’s ne vient-elles pas de reprendre Gainsbourg ? C’est l’ère des samples à tout va...»

"Music sounds better with you. And music you will find all through this issue of Wad. Music and fashion, of course, that have walked hand in hand since the beginning of time. In stereo sound. And in an eternal re-birth. Just take a look at musical movements : the electronic universe in which we are submerged has its origin.

And despite its innovation, it does not hesitate to take things out of the past. Rap and house music draw their inspiration from what has happenedbefore them. You often hear disco reappearances in house music. You often hear far away rock items in rap. It can either be discreet or very clear : Haven’t a ten or a dozen DJ’s just re-mixed Gainsbourg ? It is the all sample area. In fashion, it is the same thing : it is vintage and customisation time. You can see it in designer labels just as in brands that invade the street ."
