INTERVIEWS  

FOUR TET New Tricks
Interview with Kieran Hebden
Somewhere in-between international tours, DJ gigs, a ton of remix work and a couple of sell- out improv shows with veteran jazz drummer Steve Reid, Kieran Hebden has found time to deliver his fourth Four Tet album. Everything Ecstatic builds on the trademark Hebden aesthetic of tightly edited, sample-based composition but ups the ante considerably. Where its predecessors were happy to offer lush texture and an abundance of atmospherics, this record leaps from the speakers and heads for the floor. Despite this new enthusiasm and optimism, Hebden himself is as humble and softly spoken as ever as we found out when we caught with him for an all-too-brief Q&A backstage at the Scala as he prepared for his DJ slot in support of friends and peers Prefuse 73 and Battles.

NICOLETTE Single Minded
Interview with Nicolette

Nicolette is without a doubt one of the most forward-thinking and talented musicians around. Her rare releases reveal a truly independent, honest and human artist. With a new album out, her third in thirteen years, released on her own record label, Early Records, we caught up with her in between live dates for an in-depth review of her career and collaboration and an insight at what the future might hold.
