What am I supposed to do with this?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
It\u2019s un-Googleable. Unpronounceable.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
It doesn\u2019t even render the same way on various platforms. It looks one way on YouTube Music. Another on Apple Music. And yet another on Bandcamp. Even the artist name \u28ce\u2847\ua27a\u10da\u0f3d\u0b87\u2022\u031b)\u0f80\u25de \u0f0e\u0eb6 \u0f3d\u09e3\u09e2\u061e\u09e2\u061e\u0616 \ua27a\u10da is an unpronounceable series of glyphs that would make Prince shake his head.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
So, from here on out, I\u2019m just going to refer to \u28ce\u2847\ua27a\u10da\u0f3d\u0b87\u2022\u031b)\u0f80\u25de \u0f0e\u0eb6 \u0f3d\u09e3\u09e2\u061e\u09e2\u061e\u0616 \ua27a\u10da by his more well-known alias, Four Tet, and the album as Wingdings<\/em>. My apologies to Kieran Hebden for disregarding his intent, but I\u2019ve got readers to consider.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Also, shoutout to subscriber morgannels for bringing this one to my attention in last week\u2019s<\/a> what are you listening to thread.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n For years, Hebden has kept this alias somewhat of a secret. But now that this collection of wingdings has racked up millions of listens on services like Spotify, it\u2019s get a more formal release with wingdings<\/em><\/em>. Some of the tracks here have been released previously, including track five, which Fred Again dropped during his incredible Boiler Room set<\/a> as \u201cFeelings,\u201d under one of Hebdens\u2019 other aliases, KH.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Wingdings<\/em> leans heavily towards Four Tet\u2019s dancier outputs. And, despite what the project\u2019s origins as some sort of secret b-side dumping ground might lead you to believe, these are not throwaways. They\u2019re undeniable, infectious, and highly polished. Four Tet\u2019s sense for sound design shines from crushed 8-bit drums to the hypnotic handpan grooves and sharp synth melodies.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n While the songs are definitely groovy and danceable, they\u2019re not high-octane rave-ups, for the most part. Instead, tracks like number seven build to a more ecstatic and spiritual climax as layers pile up and textures demand you turn your eyes towards the sky. Not unlike last week\u2019s recommendation, Shall We Go On Sinning So That Grace May Increase?<\/a><\/em>, Wingdings<\/em><\/em> is a celebration. No, I might not drop the triphop-esque track one at the club, but it\u2019s perfect for finding your groove while trying to write, or cleaning, or any other activity where you want good vibes and grooves.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
