VINYL IS NON-RETURNABLE

The players:

Kieran Hebden

Adem Ilhan

Sam Jeffers

Before Four Tet was remixing Radiohead and Coldplay and before Adem was performing with David Byrne
and Fairport Convention, they were breaking new ground as Fridge, a trio formed in 1996 with fellow
schoolmate Sam Jeffers. After three critcally-acclaimed albums, the group took an inadvertent hiatus when its
members’ various solo projects took off. Six years later, the group are back with The Sun, their most
celebrated album yet. To celebrate their triumphant return, we are releasing their astonishing 2001 album,
Happiness, on deluxe limited edition double vinyl. Strictly limited to 2,000 copies, and pressed on 100% virgin
black vinyl, this is the first time Happiness has been available on vinyl anywhere in the world in over five
years.

Fresh out of their not-so-advantageous deal with Go!Beat/Polygram, Fridge took their major label advance
and wisely invested in a cozy but killer home studio with which they hibernated for the better part of a year. By
the time spring had sprung they had popped out the nine gems that make up Happiness. Among them you
will find some subtle organic drones, a few electronic vignettes, a couple epic rock pieces and one song –
"Five Four Child Voice" – featuring an infant Kieran Hebden holding a conversation with his sister.
