SOUND ANCESTORS (ARRANGED BY KIERAN HEBDEN) (LP)

Madlib

MUSIC BY MADLIB

ARRANGED BY KIEREN HEBDEN

Gil Evans to Miles Davis. Holger Czukay to the ensemble known as Can.Jean Claude Vannier to Serge Gainsbourg on Histoire de Melody Nelson. Thats the only way to explain the specificity of Four Tet and Madlibs collaboration, in this special album that showcases a two-decade long friendship that has resulted in an album that follows Madlibs classics like Quasimotos The Unseen, Madvillainy and his Pinata and Bandana albums with Freddie Gibbs.
A few months ago I completed work on an album with my friend Madlib that wed been making for the last few years. He is always making loads of music in all sorts of styles and I was listening to some of his new beats and studio sessions when I had the idea that it would be great to hear some of these ideas made into a Madlib solo album. Not made into beats for vocalists to use but instead arranged into tracks that could all flow together in an album designed to be listened to start to finish. I put this concept to him when we were hanging out eating some nice food one day and we decided to work on this together with him sending me tracks, loops, ideas and experiments that I would arrange, edit, manipulate and combine. I was sent hundreds of pieces of music over a couple of years stretch and during that time I put together this album with all the parts that fitted with my vision. – Kieren Hebden AKA Four Tet
