0181 will serve as the follow-up to last year’s Pink collection, and collects an assortment of unreleased material from Hebden’s archives. All the tracks on the record predate Four Tet’s breakthrough LP Pause, and were recorded between 1997 and 2001. As Hebden put it in a spirited Twitter message: “you ready for this?”. The title, we assume, is a reference to the now-retired London telephone code.

Funny, I've heard every single one of his LPs but wasn't really that into his music until the Ringer EP which just clicked and then everything after that is pretty great...

 

But now I'm really digging these tracks as well. They seem less jazzy, busy and complex compared to the "other" old Four Tet, and in a way closer to the more minimal style he's embraced lately.

This is quite the treat and much better than expected! Doesn't sound much like Dialogue at all which imho was hit and miss. Always liked the way he's worked with breaks and hiphop influences (abundantly on display here), pretty sure one of these tracks got repurposed for the Madvillain Remixes too.

on first listen it seemed to encompass all his sounds despite being made pre dialogue

 

Agreed, I reckon this was intentional in how he curated this collection (picking tracks that jibe more with his current direction and omitting those that don't). Don't mind that it's all a single track as this is how I listen to most stuff anyway. Nice of him to give this away for free too
