John chats with Kieran Hebden, aka Four Tet, about creating his album Three and other works. Starting with the post-rock band Fridge, Kieran debuted solo with Dialogue in 1999, evolving into one of today's most innovative producers. Blending hip-hop, jazz, krautrock, electronica, and folk, he’s released 12 albums, remixed artists like Radiohead and Björk, and collaborated with Burial, Fred Again, and Skrillex, pushing the boundaries of modern music. Sitting down together, Kieran breaks down his production journey and writing process, sharing the samples at the core of each track and reflecting on his approach to the most important element, the arrangement. Digging into the production details, he shares tips on keeping loops alive, making kicks pop, and the subtle textures that help place a track in its own world.
