Four Tet shares ‘BACK2THESTART’, sampling Cheryl Cole
Jet-setting producer has unveiled an in-demand track.
Kieran Hebden aka Four Tet has unveiled a song that “people keep asking for.” It’s called ‘BACK2THESTART’ and it was recorded on a plane.
Debuted on a Rinse FM set last year, it’s now streaming in full below. Obviously it samples Cheryl Cole.
We’ve just put up a comprehensive guide to Four Tet on DIY. Will Richards runs through his early history - from falling in love with post-rock to his relationship with Plastic People - and the various off-cuts and side projects he keeps himself busy with. Read it here.
Listen to ‘BACK2THESTART’ below.
