Early Output 1996-1998

Fridge's music playfully skated all over the musical map, jumping from bashing lo-fi punk to sublime expanses of downtempo dance with equal enthusiasm. With their label (Output Recordings) now defunct, and Fridge having spawned no less than three successful side projects (Four Tet, Adem, and Kieran Hebden's collaborations with jazz legend Steve Reid), it was time to release a band-curated collection of their most memorable tracks from those wildly prolific years. Also includes six previously unreleased tracks from that era. Re-mastered, with photos and extensive liner notes from friends, collaborators, and the band.
