Much has been said already about There is Love in You, the latest album from Kieren Hebdan, better known to us as Four Tet. And while I already talked a bit about “Sing”, one of the album’s standout tracks, I figured it might do some good to talk about another killer standout track on the album, “Circling”. This one definitely is not for everyone, but I dig it hardcore.
I don’t even know where to begin because there’s so much I love about this song. I think the biggest thing is that once the arpeggio melody comes in, it really sounds like nothing I’ve heard before. And there are some really funky time signature things going on too. Part of the song is chillin in 6/8, and part of the song is chillin in 4/4. And the main melody is 6 4/4 measures long, whereas typically songs are 4 measures long, so it kind of keeps you on your toes a little. Or we can choose to enjoy it for what it is, sans any music theory. And we will still like it.
What’s so great about Four Tet is that most of his tracks start out really simple and just add more and more throughout. There are so many little details to discover in just about every track.
