Miraval Studios X Rabanne: who is Walette, the 2025 winner?

Among the highlights of 2025, Maison Rabanne has teamed up with Miraval Studios on a unique musical project: reviving Listen To The Music, Judy Carter's iconic disco-soul track released in 1983.  Launched on TikTok under the name #RabanneRemix, the challenge sparked a real craze, revealing a new generation of artists. WALLETTE stood out with a bright and resolutely funky version, in keeping with the Maison's disco heritage. Originally from North Carolina and based in Brooklyn, the singer-songwriter was invited to record the final version at Miraval Studios, alongside Damien Quintard, producer and co-founder of the venue.

The remastered track will be unveiled on 7 November 2025.

« WALLETTE’s rework captured our attention immediately as she brought it to life on the streets of New York. Her approach to performance is boldly contemporary. Her voice layered with soulful textures embodies the intersection of retro R&B and experimental pop. She commands presence at every turn, radiating confidence and spontaneity »

A project born from the #RabanneRemix Challenge

With the #RabanneRemix Challenge, the House is not just revisiting an iconic track, it is creating a space for expression that is open to the whole world. The challenge: to reinterpret Judy Carter's Listen To The Music, a disco-soul track released in 1983, through a resolutely contemporary lens, in keeping with Rabanne's musical heritage. Open to all on TikTok, the challenge has garnered more than 15 million views in just a few weeks. It revealed a plurality of proposals, driven by an emerging scene committed to reinventing the codes.

Beyond the track itself, the project offered a rare opportunity: to record the final version at Miraval Studios, an iconic creative space located in Provence. For several decades, this legendary studio has welcomed some of the biggest names in music: Pink Floyd, The Cure, Muse, AC/DC, Travis Scott... An exceptional setting, designed for high-quality sound and artistic freedom.

WALLETTE has created a brilliant reinterpretation of the track. She joined Miraval Studios to record her final version, accompanied by Damien Quintard, producer and co-founder of the venue.

The rebirth of a disco soul anthem

Accompanied by producer Damien Quintard, WALLETTE recorded her version of Listen To The Music in the legendary recording studio. The track, which was entirely re-recorded, features multi-instrumentalist Augustin Charnet in a deliberately live approach, capturing the moment in its purest form.

Released in 1983 on the Paco Rabanne Design label, Listen To The Music is a disco-soul track with funk accents. Its original orchestration combines brass, percussion and elaborate instrumental textures, a signature sound that resonates with the Rabanne universe of the 1980s. In this new interpretation, WALLETTE reinterprets the track through a contemporary aesthetic, combining confident groove, R&B references and pop sensibility. A precise and instinctive performance, carried by an expressive voice, which pays homage to the spirit of the track while revealing it in a new light.

The track will be available on all platforms from 7 November 2025.- Youtube

« It’s one of those moments when you’re in a session and suddenly realize the artist in front of you has that thing, that star material. The kind of energy you can’t manufacture, because it’s woven into her DNA. I’m so proud of how the remix turned out, and even more excited to watch Wallet take over the world with her voice in the coming years. »

« Working with Damien and his whole team was nothing short of magical. He’s so in tune with every inch of the space it made collaborating effortless and so much fun. It was a truly heartwarming and inspiring journey. I’m so grateful for the amazing team and the freedom the studio gave us to experiment and create without limits. Safe to say we all had a really good time! Everything about the experience reflected what Rabanne is all about. Art, freedom, and staying true to who you are. It’s changed my life and I’ve never been more ready for what’s to come next.»

Monsieur Rabanne's musical legacy

In the 1980s, Monsieur Rabanne placed music at the heart of his creative universe. Through the Paco Rabanne Design label and Centre 57 in Paris, he supported the Afro, disco and funk scenes, promoting cultural expressions that were still under-represented in established circles. This free and cross-disciplinary vision remains essential to the House's identity. By reviving Listen To The Music, Rabanne is reactivating this dialogue between fashion and music and continuing its mission: to pass on legacies while anchoring them in the present.

« What I love is making music. Caribbean music, African music — all kinds of things. A fashion designer should also be a man of the arts, a complete artist. »
