In recent years, Four Tet has gone from underground visionary to festival headliner, collaborating with global names like Fred again.. and Skrillex. Yet despite his newfound visibility, he’s never lost his ear for detail. On record, the crate-digging curiosity and sense of texture that has defined his music for over two decades remains intact. Four Tet, or Kieran Hebden as he’s also called, has always had one foot planted in club culture — switching between UK-garage rhythms, breakbeat pulses and dancefloor momentum — while the other explores ambient atmospheres, harps and folk-inflected melodies. Few producers in electronic music have a sonic fingerprint as instantly recognizable as him. A dusty drum pattern, soft-glowing synths and somewhere in the mix a fragment of a human voice drift by. It’s this unmistakable blend of warmth, rhythm, and experimentation that makes Four Tet’s long-awaited debut at Way Out West one of the most anticipated moments of the summer.
