Four Tet Shares 'Randoms' Compilation
A nine-track collection spanning his entire career.
Four Tet (Kieran Hebden) has shared a brand new compilation of tracks from a string of random projects over his illustrious career. Randoms goes all the way back to 1996 for ”Field,” the first Four Tet track cut released on Leaf Records Invisible Soundtracks compilation. The most recent track included is “Gillie Amma I Love You,” a song from the 2013 charity project BOATS. Hebden accompanied the release with the following description:
“Over the years there have been some pieces of music that I have made specially for compilation projects or have ended being released only as part of a compilation album. As time passes I look back at this music and find the context it was originally put in often feels a bit random now. So I have put together this new album called Randoms that brings together this music in a different way. The oldest track here is Field from 1996, the first Four Tet track ever released on Leaf Records Invisible Soundtracks compilation. The most recent is Gillie Amma I Love You which was made for a charity project called BOATS in 2013. All the tracks here have been released before and I am sure some internet searching will give you the full details if you are interested. Thank you to everyone who originally commissioned and released this music. The artwork for this was made by Jason Evans.”
Randoms is available on Bandcamp as a “name your price” release. Check out the stream below.
