Thom Yorke Assembles Exclusive Playlist for New York Fashion Week
2/17/2010 By Josiah Hughes

Hopefully, Peter Gabriel isn't reading this, because it seems that the reason Thom Yorke hasn’t been returning his calls is the Radiohead front-man has been too busy with his cool friends at New York Fashion Week.

According to Vanity Fair, Yorke compiled a soundtrack for clothing makers Rag & Bone.

An interview with designer David Neville at Style explains that Yorke worked with the company for five months to compile the perfect soundtrack. br>
“A lot of bass this season,” Neville says of the soundtrack. “At the men’s show, we blew out a speaker.”

The tracks Yorke chose were Squarepusher's “Freeman, Hardy, and Willis Acid,” Modeselektor's “Dark Side of the Sun,” Björk's “The Dull Flame of Desire” and Charles Mingus' “II B.S.” Nothing that even resembles Peter Gabriel, unfortunately.
