fourtet description

i just have "dialogue" and "pause" but on trawling
d'interweb i read this about "rounds".....

Kind of like a mellowed-out Squarepusher going back-to-back
on MTV Unplugged with Autechre and a drunken jazz band on a
sunny day in the park, it is the perfect summer album for
barbecues with
physics students. Or a bath.

Does this sound like a fair description? If so.. i may just
have to get it. Whatcha thunk?

(although we used to get beaten with a belt in primary
school if we used the word 'nice' in written work..)

its a bit more self-indulgent than pause. its really good
though. If you have the other two, then you'll know kind of
what to expect. Well worth your euro.

i'd say the above description is a bit over the top.
but hey, its a good album.

I don't know how to describe it, but it was a fair attempt.
Perhaps without the Autechre part. I like Rounds very much,
and I urge you to get/download it.

i've heard live he is completley different to his ususal
style, like a different artist. but i think i 'they' said
that, so they could be wrong.

well, he plays his music but fiddles qith it quite a bit,
adding all kinds of cool sounds, get's very noisy (almost
whitenoise) at times, and all sorts of weird frequencies,
makes it sounds quite abstract..just the kind of thing i
love to see :)

four tet is def. one of my favourites. saw him live last
year, it was quite enjoyable.

can't wait for the new album. especially after reading this
interview with him:

"I'd gone as far as I could with that. The whole folktronica
thing was kinda making me crazy-- it had become so boring
and bland. People were asking all the time, 'Do you feel
like you're making the modern day folk music,' and I was
being asked to work on folk records all the time, and it
seemed to be so far away from anything I would ever imagine
myself getting into. And you know, I like some folk music,
but I don't really see myself as being part of the ideology
behind it."

"It's important to me that every record moves on from the
last one-- I don't ever want to kinda just repeat myself.
[This album] is a bit more manic sounding than the last one,
and acoustic elements like guitar and all that are gone."
