[New] Burial and Four Tet – Nova

Last night TEXT013 was launched on Four Tet‘s twitter and soundcloud page- greeted by much excitement. “Text” being his label and “013” being the release number. The song, titled “Nova”, is another collaboration with the infamous Burial with whom he’s worked in the past; most notably last year’s Ego/Mirror 12in split with Thom Yorke.

“Nova” has gotten great reception, b lining to 40,000 plays in one night (it’s at 130,000 right now after only 18 hours) and resparking our love for the duo. The song itself stirs amid vocal samples for about 90 seconds before a layer of keys really get it moving and get the layers working in harmony.
