Earlier this year, Jarvis Cocker's current band, JARV IS..., released a dub mix of "Swanky Modes" by reggae great Dennis Bovell as a single. That is now part of a new remix album that also features Hot Chip, David Holmes & Keefus Ciancia, Pilooski & Jayvich, Greg Wilson, and more bringing their touch to songs from last year's Beyond the Pale. You can listen to the Dennis Bovell DubMix of "Swanky Modes" and David Holmes & Keefus Ciancia’s Unloved Rework of "Must I Evolve?" below.
JARV IS REMIX ED... will be available at the merch table on the band's UK tour, which starts Tuesday, November 2 in Manchester, and the album will be out in North America on November 26 via Rough Trade. No word yet on North American dates (JARV IS... were to have played Brooklyn shows in May 2020 to celebrate the album's release). All tour dates are listed below.
Meanwhile, Jarvis is in Wes Anderson's new film, The French Dispatch, as fictional French pop star Tip-Top, and he just released a whole album as Tip-Top, too. You can pick up Chansons d'Ennui Tip-Top and The French Dispatch soundtrack, not to mention Beyond the Pale, on vinyl in the BV shop.
Cocker is also working on Anderson's new film, Asteroid City; details are still to come.
