Rick Owens Curates a Playlist for “TurboCunts”

This is SOUND ADVICE, a weekly destination for playlists curated by Interview’s friends, enemies, and lovers. Over the past few weeks, we’ve gathered playlists curated by Chino Moreno, Patia Borja, and Channel Tres. This week’s installment is brought to you by Rick Owens, a fashion great but also a respected arbiter of musical taste. His affinity for rockstars like Bowie and Iggy Pop is no secret, but as a self-described “genre slut,” the playlist he created for us—appropriately titled “TurboCunt”—has a few Easter eggs. Upon questioning, Owens reveals his favorite club in Miami, his most-loved runway soundtrack, and the artist who features most prominently in a hypothetical movie about his life.
