Four Tet's Kool FM arrives on Text Records as a limited white label two-tracker — Kieran Hebden paying tribute to the legendary London pirate radio station with two versions of a track that sits at the intersection of UK garage, techno and the kind of dancefloor-focused Four Tet that his club output of that period had been building toward. A record that captures a specific moment in his evolution and a specific moment in London's club culture simultaneously.
The original Kool FM occupies the A-side with the rolling, skippy energy that made it such an immediate hit when it first circulated — garage rhythms and techno pressure fused with Hebden's characteristic textural warmth. The Bliss Mix on the flip takes the same raw material into more expansive, atmospheric territory, the energy softened into something more weightless and reflective. Two sides of a producer entirely at ease with the music that inspired him. Limited, white label and long sought after.
