Why didn't I think of that?

And it has arrived. Sounds great on big speakers.

@ WCC, kind of you to suggest I have an ear for this stuff! Mostly I just watch a lot of synth videos.

For me, the distinction between hardware vs. software has less to do with "sounds analogue!" and more to do with audible compositional processes that don't really require hands-on experience with synths to 'get'. Stuff like ARP or Beak>/Portishead/Anika or Emeralds or the Analord records or some OPN stuff is just composed differently than Rustie or Four Tet or Flying Lotus.
Anyway I'm SO excited to hear this record, it and Flying Lotus are gonna make my autumn great
― whiter than... this? (Ówen P.), Saturday, 22 September 2012 16:45 (eleven years ago) link
This is brilliant. Loving the drums that kick in around 2 minutes in, really good twist on a sound that I'd connect strongly with Rounds.
The Flying Lotus is also very strong. Very summery.

Is that supposed to be a link? Nothing is turning up for it. :-(
I got really really excited when I searched for him earlier because Google suggested that he was playing in ST KILDA and suddenly the thought of Four Tet playing on a DESERTED SCOTTISH ISLAND which is now a nature reserve was like the most exciting and WCC-friendly gig I could possibly imagine. But they meant the one in Australia, dammit.
I can still hold out hope he might play the Papay Festival or such thing.

No idea why that isn't working.
Search for: "Four Tet Live in the Boiler Room" on YouTube, maybe?
― djh, Thursday, 11 October 2012 20:26 (eleven years ago) link
It's not embedding but I eventually got there with some copying and pasting. Going to have to listen to it at work, though, as my connection is not going to handle that.

I don't know a ton (read: enough) about Four Tet, but this is terrific:

Video and download of a two-hour set of him playing records. And a photo of those records that someone will hopefully turn into a tracklist at some point.

Mr. Tet has put his new ludicrously named track "The Track I've Been Playing That People Keep Asking About And That Joy Used In His RA Mix And Daphni Played On Boiler Room" up for free download, possibly in response to people scalping the 12" on Discogs:

yeh, loving that. poked my head up, and now i'm going back in. echoed-out drum sample that shifts in & out behind the hand percussion is ridiculous. anyone know what it's from?

Morning is absolutely lush. Maybe the most phenomenologically beautiful thing he's ever done.
― Hey Bob (Scik Mouthy), Tuesday, 23 June 2015 10:06 (eight years ago) link
"Morning Side" features samples from Lata Mangeshkar's performance of "Main Teri Chhoti Behana Hoon", recorded for the 1983 film Souten.
According to wiki, anyway.
― Hey Bob (Scik Mouthy), Tuesday, 23 June 2015 10:07 (eight years ago) link
Evening is pretty damn amazing, too. This might be my favourite thing he's done; certainly right up there based on one listen. I can see me playing this to death.
― Hey Bob (Scik Mouthy), Tuesday, 23 June 2015 10:33 (eight years ago) link
i thought i recognised the voice - not through mangeshkar's work but she was sampled on truth hurts' "addictive" too
this is not as good as "addictive" despite the sample which is the best thing about it
― lex pretend, Tuesday, 23 June 2015 11:45 (eight years ago) link
i don't like his polite drum pads at all
pretty underwhelmed by this one tbh :(
― lil urbane (Jordan), Tuesday, 23 June 2015 12:07 (eight years ago) link
I was hoping for something elongated and pseudo-ambient and pretty, based on the running times, and that's exactly what I've got, so super happy. Perfect record for sitting in the livingroom with a baby to.
― Hey Bob (Scik Mouthy), Tuesday, 23 June 2015 12:19 (eight years ago) link
First ive heard about this but if the running times averages 7 minutes 20 then I will be purchasing this immediately, although I am a little worried that my living room isn't really decorated suitably as we ran out of money when doing the extension, so at least part of me is wondering whether to play this in the Audi instead
― anvil, Tuesday, 23 June 2015 12:32 (eight years ago) link
2 tracks, 20 minutes each.
― Hey Bob (Scik Mouthy), Tuesday, 23 June 2015 12:35 (eight years ago) link
Oh that means it will work in the garden as well! We've cleared the undergrowth at the end of the garden so now we have sole access to the stream that runs along the bottom there, this sounds like it will be perfect for playing there in the summer evenings
― anvil, Tuesday, 23 June 2015 13:07 (eight years ago) link
Fell in love with this record on first listen.
