You remember Pink, right? No, not the American pop singer who contributed to the undoubtedly Auto-tuned bastardization of “Lady Marmalade,” the compilation from British producer/DJ Kieran Hebden a.k.a. Four Tet, released last year. Six out of the eight tracks on that album consist of previously released singles, and the album itself was announced about a month and half prior to its release, via Hebden’s Twitter page last July.
On Monday, serving as a sort of companion piece to Pink, Hebden technically announced, again via Twitter, the nigh-immediate release of 0181, a new LP consisting entirely of previously unreleased material recorded between 1997 and 2001. Listen to it for free below, or if you’re feeling particularly patient, wait around for the vinyl version, reportedly “coming soon.” The material on 0181 predates Four Tet’s groundbreaking Pause, so consider it a slightly less fleshed-out version of that album, certainly not without its own, rather pretty moments.
