Four Tet's Fact Mix



This week has been a good week. Why? Because on Monday, FACT queefed out a brand new mix by Four Tet which has been on heavy rotation all week.

Closer to his DJ Kicks mix than the seminal Late Night Tales mix, it's a good guide to where Kieran Hebden's head is now at and where it has been.

Taking in the garage flecked bass pressure hinted at by the inclusion of So Solid Crew on the aforementioned DJ Kicks mix, the more dancefloor directed inclination of his latest LP There Is Love In You, the polyrythmic complexity of jazz drumming from his work with Steve Reid and the genre-switching googlies he like to bowl (check the last track on the mix), this is another essential mix from one of the most progressive producers around.
