Four Tet biografia

Kieran Hebden best known by the stage name Four Tet, is a post-rock and electronic musician who was also a member of Fridge.

Never one for convention Kieran's first release under the Four Tet pseudonym was a 36 minute, 25 second single long single entitled 'Thirtysixtwentyfive'. Since then he has continued to release singles, EPs and LPs full of his complex electro/rock hybrid sound. His first album was released in 1999 and was entitled 'Dialogue', it received positive reviews from NME for its innovative sound.

He released a number of EPs and demos before 2003's 'Rounds' LP became Hebden's first appearance on the UK album charts. He toured his unique brand of folktronica around the country and into Europe with a live show often described as unpredictable and improvisational. The 2010 album 'There Is Love in You' is Four Tet's only album to break the UK album chart top 40 to date.

Despite a lack of commercial success, his critical acclaim and talent as a producer has allowed him the opportunity to work with some of the biggest artists in the industry. He has remixed works by Aphex Twin, Anti-Pop Consortium, Bonobo, The xx, Super Furry Animals, Foals, Black Sabbath and many more. Recently he has been working on exciting new collaborative projects with Burial and Thom Yorke. His latest solo album 'Beautiful Rewind' was released in 2013 and holds a MetaCritic score of 79/100 after receiving rave reviews from Spin, Fact and others.

Four Tet – aka Kieran Hebden – is probably the DJ I’ve seen live the most times. He’s a fairly ubiquitous figure, seemingly DJing at every single festival, both in the UK and Europe. As a producer, Four Tet is one of the leading artists in UK electronic music, having pushed the boundaries of intelligent dance music with his early forays into folk and jazz-laced electronica. But it’s his take on house, garage and bass music that really changed up the game, ever since his There Is Love in You album dropped in 2010. Hedben has an otherworldly talent for incorporating accessible melody into an otherwise authentic dance song, and his downtempo productions are often layered with pretty sound effects and samples.
His DJ sets are impossible to predict since he is such a versatile selector and moulds each set to his surroundings, but they are always thoroughly enjoyable. I’ve seen techno heavy sets, such as at Plastic People in London where he dropped his Burial collaboration ‘Moth’, as well as jungle and house sets at certain festivals like Field Day. I personally think Four Tet is at his best when he pulls from all shades of his palette during one set, such as at Worldwide in France where he effortlessly mixed his own heady productions with latin jazz, soul and contemporary techno music. Lovely.
