It’s no secret that Four Tet is one of electronic music’s more ‘indie’-minded producers, or, at the very least, one of the electronic music producers most beloved by the ‘indie’ crowd, so remixing a song for Canadian quintet The Acorn should prove ideal for Mr. Kieran Hebden and his fans. Here we have Four Tet’s version of “Restoration” from The Acorn’s forthcoming third album, No Ghost. Hebden’s rework twinkles with the same warm analog glow of his past productions and, at times, seems as if it could’ve been ripped straight from his last album, the wonderful There Is Love in You—it has the same slow-bubbling melodies, subtly tweaked vocal samples, and shuffling acoustic drum beat heard in many of Four Tet’s greatest songs.
