Kieran Hebden a.k.a. Four Tet is one super talented dude. I guess I was kinda late discovering him, only really picking up on his stuff after I heard Joy Orbison’s wicked remix of his beautiful tune ‘Love Cry’. He has just released an incredible new album, There is Love in You, which I highly recommend getting hold of. He deftly incorporates elements of hip hop, techno, jazz, house, electronica and live instrumentation to create amazing music.

This mix for Radio 1’s essential mix show on the 23rd of January is a genre bending electronic delight, proving he is just as talented as selector as he is as producer. Perfect for late nights, dark rooms and serious conversations. Can also vouch for it as the perfect accompaniment to a tight deadline.
