- A recording of the pair's last set together will hit stores next month.
Live at the South Bank, the final installment of Kieren Hebden, AKA Four Tet, and late American jazz drummer Steve Reid's collaborative series, is due to be released in November.
The album is a recording of the pair's final public performance together, held in the foyer of the South Bank Centre's Queen Elizabeth Hall as part of London's Meltown Festival in June, 2009. On this occasion, the pair were joined on stage by Swedish musician Mats Gustafsson, one of Europe leading saxophonists, and played for over two hours. "Steve is the greatest musician I have ever encountered," Hebden once said. "Not only was he the best player I've worked with but he was into music like no one else I know... Knowing someone be that into it was truly inspiring."
