Four Tet (http://www.fourtet.net/) and Steve Reid will be recording two improvised sessions and releasing them as The Exchange Sessions Vol. 1 & 2. There is a website (http://www.kieranhebdenandstevereid.com) up for the project. Volume 1 will be released on February 27th and you can listen to one song from it on the website.
For those of you who don't know, Steve Reid is the legendary drummer who in 1964 at 19 years of age played on Martha Reeves & the Vandellas’ ‘Dancing In The Street’, and subsequently went on to play with Miles Davis, Fela Kuti and James Brown (think about that for a moment), not to mention Fats Domino, Sun Ra, Peggy Lee, Chaka Khan, Dexter Gordon, Dionne Warwick and many, many more.
