"My Friend Dario" is the first single from Vitalic's debut album, OK Cowboy.

The music video for "My Friend Dario" features a band mimicking instrumentation; the guitarists play air guitar and the drummer air drums.

The lack of band instruments in the video reflect a statement made on Vitalic's website; that the instruments on his album OK Cowboy are entirely synthesized and that "the only thing he can't fake is the emotion that galvanizes his music."

The maxi-CD version of the single includes a live cover of Daniel Miller's "Warm Leatherette", performed on BBC Radio 1.

In an interview with Pascal Arbez in CMJ New Music Monthly, Arbez dialogued:[4] The song appears in the EA video games FIFA 06 and Need for Speed: Carbon (plays only when driving a tuner car).
