The first disc contains twelve Four Tet remixes selected by Hebden. NYC (with Steve Reid; Domino Records, 4 November 2008) References.

Dragon quest 4 iso. Ludicrously prolific as Kieran Hebden is, rest assured that there will always be room for another collaboration with percussive partner par excellence Steve Reid. NYC is an album by Kieran Hebden and Steve Reid. Hebden and Reid had previously collaborated on three studio albums, with NYC becoming their final release before Reid.

8/ 10 Phil Staff review, 30 October 2008 So I whack on the Steve Reid/ Kieran Hebden new collaboration NYC. How many have they done??

Must be at least a thousand by now. And maybe it's me but I think they may all sound the same? Or at least pretty similar. Well the latest skronkfest sees them utilising New York as their inspiration in this new 6 track behemoth. Funk and electronica fused together in perfect harmony. Steve Reid's crashing drums and Kieran's electronics have been a bit much for me on one or 2 of the last releases but this one is surprisingly listenable. At times it sounds a bit like Tortoise what with all the rhythms and electronics and that.

Sounds just like 'em in fact. Perhaps they should have called it Chicago? Maybe that would be a bit crass like. It was recorded over 2 days and the album has a very 'jammy' feel.

Not unpleasant at all which is what I was suspecting.
