Description
Another day, another freebie that sets the internet alight—though to be fair, 0181 is a pretty generous offering even by the standards of today’s content-hungry masses. This 38-minute, free-to-download album gathers sketches, castoffs and other miscellany Kieran Hebden recorded between his first releases as Four Tet in 1997 and his second solo LP, Pause, in 2001. In a sense this was Hebden’s exploratory phase, leading from humble DJ Shadow-inspired beginnings towards the mature, cinematic sound that prevailed throughout his recent records.
