Yves Jarvis, aka Jean-Sébastien Yves Audet, is no longer simply a recording artist: now, he says, he’s a songwriter. These 16 tracks of brazen songcraft and pure musicianship are things he played himself, without a single additional contributor (“Not even one!”), and see the 3X-Polaris-nominated artist turn with pleasure to the stuff of verses, choruses, hooks and hits.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e“I basically only listened to Frank Sinatra for a year,” Jarvis says. He wanted Sinatra’s “clarity”—\"the way the songs exist without him, as real things.” Whereas the 28-year-old previously approached music as something sculptural, “this time I just made a ton of songs,” working with an old laptop and bare-bones software, “no pretense.” “Instead of making a world, I thought: ‘I’m a band. The drums are there to keep the beat.’”\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAs always, Yves Jarvis is distinguished by his sound—a warm, vivid thing that feels at once like a handknit piece of fabric and a sheet of precious metal. He is dedicated to a music that condenses folk, R\u0026amp;B, country, blues, Americana—with a touch that’s contemporary, even futuristic, and smashes together a stunning array of influences, from Serge Gainsbourg and Judee Sill to Ray Charles, Brian Eno and Throbbing Gristle. Tunes like “Silver KG” and the title track are iridescent road songs; at other moments Jarvis meditates on truth, fiction and the utterly cosmic. Throughout, All Cylinders seems to shimmer in a middle space, part-real and part-celestial. The world’s full of love; it’s also full of mystery. “Thank God I’m me,” Yves Jarvis admits. “It would suck to be anybody else.”\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Encore Records Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47558498681086,"sku":null,"price":36.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1546\/6351\/files\/843563185049-CoverArtImage1.jpg?v=1764087106","url":"https:\/\/encorerecords.ca\/products\/lp-yves-jarvis-all-cylinders-pre-order","provider":"Encore Records Ltd","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
