4.0 out of 5 stars
cool stuff for cool people...,
By
This review is from: DJ-Kicks (Audio CD)
It's pretty much a given that a DJ set from Four Tet (a.k.a. Kieran Hebden) is going to be more of an eclectic, cerebral affair rather than a dance floor meltdown. DJ Kicks is his second foray into this realm, after an effectively atmospheric Late Night Tales installment a couple years ago. This mix has a harder edge to it, perhaps reflecting the denser, more percussive textures of Four Tet's recent album Everything Ecstatic. Basically, this is all great stuff, and unless you have a record collection twice as large as Mr. Hebden's, there's plenty of gems for you to discover here. David Behrman... Curtis Mayfield... African mbira... Gong... Madvillain... Autechre... yeah, you get the idea. Cool stuff for cool people. People like you. Buy it.

A Review Of Each Track On DJ-Kicks: Four Tet,
This review is from: DJ-Kicks (Audio CD)
David Behrman: Leapday Night Scene 1A light, gentle ambient trip through experimental music and distorted trumpet sounds, Syclops: Mom, The Video Broke An electroclash piece by French producer Maurice Fulton. Very heavy stuff. Curtis Mayfield: If I Were Only A Child Again Beautiful! A hidden soul gem from maestro Curtis Mayfield! Heiner Stadler: Out Rock A short jazz piece. Short, but sweet. Gary Davis: The Professor's Here A bizarre piece of music. I don't know the genre. It's good though! Heldon: Les Soucoupes Volantes Vertes A piece of French progressive. The title means 'The Green Flying Saucers' Stereolab: Les Yper-Sound A piece of feel-good rock. Happy! So Solid Crew: Dilemma A short piece of electro. Simple, but very good Akufen: Psychometry 3.2 A bizarre piece from Akufen. Akufen is the phonetic spelling of acouphéne (French for tinnitus) Animal Collective: Baby Day A sadly lacking piece from the Baltimore quintet. Madvillian: Figaro Bad. Just bad. Julian Priester: Love An interesting piece of jazz...Is that a latin flavour that I hear. Four Tet: Pockets (DJ-KiCKS) Here it is: The DJ-KiCKS exclusive. A smooth piece of 80s pop mixed with techno rhythms Model500: Psychosomatic What is this? Is it IDM or electro? Could someone tell me? Shona People Of Rhodesia: Taireva African thumb pianos? Why not! A beautiful and refreshing piece of music. Quickspace Supersport: Superplus This sounds like The Dandy Warhols met The Chemical Brothers. An interesting combo... Cabaret Voltaire: Kneel To The Boss A very short piece from the 70's. And I mean short. 36 seconds! Gong: Love Is How You Make It A short piece of modern Britpop. Cute! Showbiz & AG: Represent Please! Stop with the profanity! Group Home: Up Against The Wall A great piece, with amazing rhythms. Unfortunately, it is also explicit. I just don't get profanity... Autechre: Flutter A fast paced IDM/Breakbeat track from electronica gods Autechre. Wonderful! Four Tet gets Four Stars for his innovative DJ-KiCKS CD! Great job!
