Earlier this year, Björk launched an eight-part remix series surrounding her latest record, Biophilia. One track was released every two weeks on vinyl or CD, which sounded fun, but wasn’t really cost effective for penny-pinching fans of the Icelandic singer. Fortunately, this Nov. 19, the bulk of the reworked tracks will be available on one record. bastards will be issued as an LP, CD, and digitally, and will feature remixes from Matthew Herbert, Death Grips, Omar Souleyman, and more. While not all of the tracks made the record, Björk says she “spent some time editing together not necessarily the best ones but the ones that made the strongest whole,” for whatever that’s worth.
