New music from Roots Manuva and Four Tet appeared online today, courtesy Big Dada Sound. Lots of vocal samples at play here… and here’s a fun game: what is the lyric in the main hook? (My guess: “Boat Race”).
Here are 10 new tracks to turn up loud this weekend. 1. Four Tet originally made this remix of Coldplay’s Fix You for the 2005 album release of X&Y. Wherever this has been hiding, we’re very glad it found the...
The world is a particularly crazy place at present. Here are 5 tracks to turn up loud for a well deserved Friday night moment of Zen. 1. NYC’s Lion Babe. 2. First of 2 tracks from Pennsylvania’s Headphone Activist....
Four Tet (or do I mean Burial?) is about to release an album called Beautiful Rewind. Sadly, rewinding is an act that future generations will never get to experience. Anyway, Four Tet hasn’t told us the date of the new...
Florence Welch from Florence + the Machine walks into a South London bar. No jokes ensue, but she does join the band Sourberry as they’re warming up, and does a random cover of Daft Punk’s Get Lucky. We’ll blame the...
Chances are if Thom Yorke comes within 100 feet of a song being made, we will post about it here at PeteHatesMusic. Heck, we like Four Tet too, so that further justifies why you should listen to the track featured...
Cue the Endless Led Zeppelin Reunion Interview Questions Led Zeppelin reformed (sans John Bonham, of course – but with his son) for a one-off epic show in London in 2007. The demand for tickets was outrageous, and so was the...

2012 is almost done, and I’m still debating my song list from 2011. There are 2 problems – one is that it’s time for this year’s top songs list, and the other problem is there were a lot of bloody...
Jamie xx has turned Four Tet’s Lion into a layered, 7 minute song that just reeks of Jamie xx. It has the minimalist feel, yet the clickity clack drum beat that often fills his remixed tracks. Who else wishes Jamie...
This post combines two things we are very fond of – beer and free candy The xx and Four Tet. The xx song Angels has been remixed by Four Tet (who knows a thing or two about remixes), and debuted...
The Hologram of Dead Tupac Is Now Dead Dr. Dre caused a stir at Coachella this year, when Dr. Dre brought Tupac back to life in hologram form. And as he rose, he will fall and seemingly never exist again...
Hot Chip are dancing about and celebrating their recent release of In Our Heads (note: dramatization – they are dancing for other reasons, like free tacos or something). Hot Chip often remix other people’s work, but now it is their...
Another New Live Radiohead Song! Any time Radiohead are making music, my world is a better place. And after Tuesday’s show in Cincinnati, USA, Radiohead have played another new song, called Full Stop. On their previous North American leg of...
