Text Records

Text Records is a British independent record label founded by Kieran Hebden in 2001. The label is closely associated with Hebden’s own output, functioning as a primary home for releases under his Four Tet name and for work connected to his wider musical projects.

Hebden has issued much of his music through Text Records, including several albums and singles as Four Tet, as well as two albums with the band Fridge. This emphasis on artist-led releases has shaped the label’s identity, with Text serving both as an imprint for Hebden’s recordings and as a platform for a small roster of like-minded artists.

Beyond Hebden’s work, Text Records has released recordings by other artists including Daphni, Koushik, and One Little Plane. These releases sit alongside the label’s central association with Four Tet, reflecting a catalogue that extends outward from its founder while remaining selective in scope.
