Sebastien Tellier

French Sex Disco King Sebastien Tellier will be having his music sold at American Apparel. I guess it was only a matter of time before they started selling music.

Record Makers is proud to announce an agreement has been reached with American Apparel, which will make Sexuality available at all American Apparel locations throughout North America in an exclusive pre-release beginning July 22nd (full release to follow in October). This is the first time in the history of the Los Angeles based clothier that music will be sold at store level, whilst marking the first foray of the Parisian indie-label Record Makers (founded in 2000 by Marc Teissier du Cros and Stéphane Elfassi) into the world of clothing retail.

This unique collaboration began with a special pre-release of the album at the retailer’s German locations, before expanding to the rest of Europe and now North America. Sexuality will be available on CD and vinyl LP formats alongside the new single Divine (7″ and 12″ versions) in store and online at www.americanapparel.net. To promote Sexual Sportswear, the album’s first single, American Apparel created two exclusive garments – the SexualiT and SexualiTank – which will be in stores for a limited time only.

Sebastien Tellier, essential music pioneer, and the unique voice of modern
French electronic-edged pop, returns with a seminal new studio album
Sexuality. Produced by Guy Manuel De Homem-Christo – astonishingly the
first full artist project that he has produced outside of Daft Punk – this
album is Tellier’s musical statement of intent for lovemaking:
emotional, hypnotic and oozing with sensuality, a perfect fit for American
Apparel.

Viva Radio, American Apparel’s in-house radio station, will be showcasing Sebastien Tellier content throughout, programming tracks for in-store play and offering album preview streams online. In addition, Sebastien will be contributing select content for the Viva Radio airwaves in-store and online.

Sexuality and the accompanying singles, Sexual Sportswear and Divine, have been released already in Europe receiving critical acclaim from the likes of NME, The Times, The Observer, Mixmag, Pitchfork and VICE Magazine. Divine also made history as the first English-language song in 55 years to represent France at the Eurovision Song Contest in 2008.
