Rick Owens is releasing a vinyl to coincide with his Spring/Summer 2013 menswear collection. It will include eight different remixes of the track "How Do You Feel", which was recorded by Owen's wife, Michèle Lamy, and Matthew Stone. Owens enlisted DJs such as Black Asteroid, DJ MikeQ, DJ Slink, Zebra Katz, Richelle, Mister Tweeks, Reilly Steel, and B. Ames for the project.

Lamy and Stone recorded the song at the London studio where David Bowie made some of his albums. Owens then used the track at his Spring/Summer 2013 menswear show, before sending it off to the DJs to remix. “This is all about fanboy worship,” Owens says. “I’ve been listening to music from all of these guys for a while, and having Michèle and Matthew do my runway music for the last Spring show gave me the perfect excuse to do something with them all. I was tickled pink with the results.”

Only 1,000 copies of the vinyl will be available at Rick Owens flagship stores starting Jan. 2. Each purchase includes a USB and artwork photographed by Owens himself.
