Kevin Shields Remixes Bow Wow Wow for Sofia Coppola’s Marie Antoinette Soundtrack

If anything can lure Kevin Shields out of his lair, it’s the siren call of Sofia Coppola. As she did for 2003’s Lost in Translation, the director has enlisted the elusive My Bloody Valentine mastermind to contribute to the soundtrack of her forthcoming film, Marie Antoinette, due in theaters this fall.

Ever unpredictable, Shields’ contribution involves two remixes…of Bow Wow Wow. (The 1980s new wave band Svengalied by Malcolm McLaren, not the "under 21 with a Black Card" guy. That’s Bow Wow. Although we’d kill to hear what Kevin Shields could do with "I Think They Like Me". But I digress…)

Shields has sprinkled his fairy dust on Bow Wow Wow’s version of Johnny Mercer’s "Fools Rush In" as well as their signature hit, "I Want Candy" (also a cover). Bow Wow Wow’s "Aphrodisiac" also appears in the film, untouched…rest of story @pitchforkmedia.com
