Four Tet (aka Kieran Hebden) will release his debut compilation as the newest addition to Azuli’s Late Night Tales series. Unveiling many of the influences behind his ‘Pause’ and ‘Rounds’ albums, this collection pitches warm psychedelia, cool jazz, free floating folk rock and hip hop together as an insight into the find of one of dance music most creative thinkers.
For his part Kieran has spent much of the last year touring the world with the likes of Stereolab, Manitoba and Tortoise, as well as producing James Yorkston’s album and – currently – Beth Orton. He is halfway through a new Fridge album & has recently finished a remix of Madlib for Stones Throw Records, but his own work takes form like below:
