[Preview] Four Tet @ In: Motion [Published in Fear Of Fiction Oct 2012]
















There’s nothing quite like witnessing someone at the height of their career.

I call it the ‘Under Seige moment’. That brief but glorious snapshot where Seagal wasn’t clinically obese and didn’t require a stand in when the script called for a close up of his hands.

That’s where Kieran Hebden (Four Tet) is right now. The height of his career that is, not 
helping to ease Steven Seagal’s metacarpal issues.

The man can seem to do no wrong. At least not in my eyes, or indeed in the eyes of an anonymous friend of mine who spent the majority of his secret set at Bestival sobbing. Quite right too. It was blooming glorious, which is a given whenever Signor Tet is involved.

So, if you needed another reason to get excited about the 5th of October, other than it being my birthday, it should be that Four Tet himself is gracing the hard concrete floor of Motion with the Hessle Audio troupe and fellow virtuoso Floating Points.

A line up that good can be pretty overwhelming. 
I’ve already packed the Kleenex for Katy.
