DJ-Kicks
Fresh off his US tour with Steve Reid, Kieran Hebden makes a welcome return to his Four Tet alias with this inspired and eclectic DJ-Kicks mix that presents a side of his music that you may not have heard before. The mix is danceable, funky and even includes a hip hop classic or two. Stand out tracks by Curtis Mayfield, Syclops, Gary Davis, Akufen, Animal Collective, Madvillain, Cabaret Voltaire, Showbiz & AG, Group Home, Autechre and many more, make this incredible compilation more than just a collection of Four Tet's favorite tunes- the mix is instilled with his distinctive style and a touch of original production that makes it one of the best and most unique DJ-Kicks we've ever released. The original song "Pockets," Four Tet's only new release of the year, extends the DJ-Kicks tradition of stand-out exclusive cuts and gives a glimpse of what Four Tet has in store for us in 2007.
