Tired of being a one-man band, Four Tet’s Kieran Hebden has been heavy into collaborations as of late. Here are his recent sessions with dusty-fingered jazz drummer Steve Reid, and his recasting of “A Joy.” The frenetic lead-off track from last year’s Everything’s Ecstatic now sports hip-hop-quotable Eighties microphone legend Percee P. Not that the track is changed up much — the taffy-pull of bowed bass is intact, deftly spat over by P, who melds earwax with old-school virtuosity.
