Four Tet

ARTIST MAINARTIST INFORELATED ARTISTSLINKSREVIEWS

Spawned from the urge to do something apart from his post-rock band Fridge, Kieran Hebden's Four Tet project balances organic and programmed sounds. Hebden formed Fridge with Sam Jeffers and Adam Ilhan while still in high school. When Fridge went on temporary hiatus for Jeffers and Ilhan to attend college, Hebden spent time playing with ideas gained from hip-hop and electronica that he hadn't had time for while concentrating on the band. Eager to experiment, Hebden bought a computer and began collecting drum and sound samples. Though h...[more]

 

 

THIS ITEM IS A PRE-ORDER. WE EXPECT IT TO SHIP ON OR BEFORE THE DECEMBER 8TH RELEASE DATE. VINYL FORMAT. Four Tet returns with the Love Cry 12", the first single since his 2008 EP Ringer. "Love Cry" is an epic song of propulsive drums and hypnotic melodies that highlights Four Tet's turn towards dance music that the Ringer EP foreshadowed. On the flip side is a new non-album b-side titled "Our Bells."

VINYL FORMAT. A 32-minute, four-track excursion into the kind of wide-open spaces you might find if you set out to make techno with an Afro-beat / krautrock sensibility. These are tracks that make you think of Berlin - Dakar - Detroit - but they could only have been made in London. All four are headphone epics, but are mixed in such a way you have to hear them at Plastic People or The End. "Ringer" carries that minimal pulse over into Four Tet, and while Kieran Hebden's trademark recuttings of jazz breaks m   [ read more ]

VINYL FORMAT. In the same vein perhaps, as LateNight Tales, which came out earlier the same year, DJ-Kicks finds Kieran Hebden choosing some of his favorite songs from both past and present to share with his audience. But while LateNight Tales was just a cut-and-dried collection, DJ-Kicks has Hebden mixing the tracks together into something that resembles a possible club set. Though the music of Four Tet is firmly placed within the IDM/indie-electronica context, not only has Hebden wor   [ read more ]

VINYL FORMAT. The second single to be taken from Four Tet's hugely acclaimed and latest album Everything Ecstatic, is "A Joy". A churning bass-heavy tune, like a washing machine set to "queasy," "A Joy" is, in its own right, and in the context of the album, a striking opener. Impossible drums skitter across an alien jazz terrain and disappear behind rocks, only to come back bigger and more terrifying. For this vinyl single release however, the bar has been significantly raised. Hebden h   [ read more ]

Ubiquity-signed Sa Ra have created a massive impact on the modern music world with their inventive blend of soul and hip hop slinkiness - displayed on the debut 'Glorious' and 'Double Dutch' 12?s, a P-Funkadelic mastershow at London's Cargo, and remixes so far for the likes of N*E*R*D*, Medeski Martin and Wood and Roots Manuva alike. The super-producers sure show signs of confidence with the tricky joyful noise of their bold re-casting of Four Tet's percussive explosion of a track from the new album Ever   [ read more ]

VINYL FORMAT. First single taken from the highly anticipated new Fourtet (aka Kieran Hebden) album Rounds. This is a one-off vinyl only release (limited to 1000 copies), with an exclusive B-side. Backed with the exclusive track 'Cradle'. 'She Moves Me' showcases how far Kieran's sound has progressed from the 'Folktronica' he had a hand in creating. The beats are harder whilst a guitar stutters like a radio flickering in and out as a sunset melody plays on and on. 'Cradle' meanwhile is an epic track taking i   [ read more ]

Pockets' extends the DJ-Kicks series tradition of stand-out exclusive tracks from the producer creating the mix, giving a taste of Four Tet's highly anticipated DJ-Kicks. This song is Four Tet as you haven't quite heard him before. It's danceable and funky-as-hell, while the b-side features a dub version that is equally dancefloor ready. This DJ-Kicks mix may be Four Tet's only original release this year, but if songs like 'Pockets' are any indication, his new material is worth the wait.
