Dreamer


Four Tet has been slipping new tracks out semi- regularly recently and has an new e.p. out now (Anna Painting, three new songs to accompany an exhibition of the paintings of his friend Anna Liber Lewis). Back in mid- July this one came out and I almost missed it.



If that doesn't put a smile on your face for the cost of one measly quid I don't know what will*. Following April's Teenage Birdsong, Dreamer is lighter than air and hypnotic, the little riffs and melodies dancing around in circles while the drums skip about.

* The photo of the French electricity substation I give you for nothing. While reversing to photograph it I drove over a bollard which collapsed and then popped up in front of the car which caused me to laugh for some time.

  3. I heard this on the radio very recently and it is entirely thanks to you/this blog that I said to myself "ah, this must be Four Tet" as I recognised the sound (felt quite proud of myself too, tbh!)
    Love the photo - and the fact that the substation roof is so beautifully tiled!
