Review: Four Tet, There is Love in You

Four Tet
There is Love in You
B+

In an electronic era where Daft Punk’s beats reign, Four Tet’s refined electronica is an innovative breather. Though Kieran Hebden a.k.a. Four Tet named one of the songs on his album “Plastic People” after the London club he DJs at, on There Is Love In You he has developed his sound by basing his work on a folk mentality instead of approaching every song as the next European club hit. This record holds its power in its minimalism, creating ethereal landscapes of sound that are mesmerizing without slipping into mindless repetition. By layering computerized tones and looped voices over drum kit and guitar, Four Tet’s latest has achieved a unique warmth and freshness that captivates upon first listen.
