Listen to a Preview of Four Tet's Long-Awaited Collaboration With Ellie Goulding
Four Tet has returned to the studio with Skrillex, Ellie Goulding, Fred again.. and more for new music on the horizon.
The prolific electronic music producer this week shared demos of five unreleased tracks just a matter of months after dropping Three, his 12th studio album. While each preview is brief, fans can still get an idea of what to expect from Four Tet, who is revered for his ability to oscillate between genres with ease.
The first of the five has the working title “Eye” and features a hyperactive beat that gives way to wobbly bass toward the clip’s end. The second track will satisfy fans of Tet’s 2020 release Sixteen Oceans, considering it’s a brand-new collaboration with Ellie Goulding in a similar vein to their track “Baby” from that album.
The third demo sees him assume his KH alias (the initials of his full name, Kieran Hebden), for an uplifting, vocal-driven offering with the working title “Still Falling.” Fans holding their breath for a reunion with Hebden’s Coachella 2023 collaborators, Fred again.. and Skrillex, will be excited to check out the fourth demo, titled “Human Voice PHM version.”
The fifth and final demo is the most mysterious, as Four Tet shared a screenshot of the title so zoomed out that it’s impossible to decipher amidst the track’s eerie keys and creeping wind instruments.
Four Tet has not announced the release date of any of the demos at the time of this writing. Take a listen below.
