Four Tet - Sing (Floating Points Remix)


Kieran Hebden, aka. Four Tet makes beautiful music, hardly a contemporary observation I'm aware. His elegantly composed 'Sing' on his recent There Is Love In You album underpins his reputation as one of the most successively experimental producers in underground electronica- a superb amalgamation of quirky electronic sounds and ghostly mastered vocals. But then along came Floating Points who decided to make the whole thing epic and breathtaking. Their remix is undoubtedly the pick of the bunch on the new remixes EP for Sing, Any track almost 14 minutes long needs to have something to captivate even the most patient listeners, and this is utterly captivating. A weightless ambient opening builds for about 6 minutes before the whole thing comes together and becomes the stuff of electronic music fantasy. It's well and truly cemented in my brain right now, but it makes me feel remarkably good. I heard Craig Richards slip it in one of his Saturday night sets at fabric and it did something magical to Room One. I'll let the tune do the rest of the talking....
