The Story
2x 140g standard weight BLACK biovinyl in Gatefold outer sleeve with printed inner sleeve
More than two decades and eight studio albums in, Hot Chip remain as vital as ever: playful, profound and perpetually locked in the groove. They now present their
first Best Of album, Joy In Repetition will be released on September 5th. Mapping out an artistic evolution from DIY beginnings into “the greatest British pop group of their
generation” (The Guardian) and list of collaborators that includes David Byrne, Jarvis Cocker, Robert Wyatt and Brian Eno.
Joy In Repetition is a collection shaped by dancefloors, bedroom studios, festival stages and friendship. The record’s title – alluding to both the lyrics of their career-
defining track and one of Alexis Taylor’s favourite Prince songs – captures something elemental about the band: a fascination with rhythm, but also the exuberant act of
making those things, together, over and over and over and over and over. In another nod to ‘Over and Over’, the album’s artwork by the legendary Peter Blake features a
painted monkey with a miniature cymbal.
