According to fable
Great news: this is *not* AI slop at all — quite the opposite. That artist is **Four Tet's side project** — Kieran Hebden, the acclaimed British electronic producer. He started releasing more experimental material under this unpronounceable Unicode alias (fans usually just call it "⣎⡇ꉺლ" or "Four Tet's symbols project") around 2015, with song titles that are just as strange as the name — the whole thing is a deliberate bit of anti-marketing playfulness. You literally cannot type the name; you have to find it by searching "Four Tet side project" and copy-pasting.
Everything on the page backs this up: the "Fans also like" list is Floating Points, Squarepusher, µ-Ziq, and Actress — exactly Four Tet's IDM/electronic peer group — and the project has a coherent decade-long release history (singles from 2017–2019, EPs in 2020 and 2024, an album in 2026) rather than the rapid-fire bulk-upload pattern of stream farms. The track you linked is a 2019 single with over 6.6 million streams, and the artist sits at around 174K monthly listeners.
So my earlier suspicion was wrong in this case — the glyph-name aesthetic long predates the AI slop wave (this project dates to the mid-2010s), and Four Tet is arguably one of the people who inspired the look that spammers later imitated. Funny irony there.
If you like this track, the obvious next stops are Four Tet's main catalog (start with *Rounder* era stuff like "Two Thousand and Seventeen" or the album *New Energy*, which came out around the same time as this alias's early releases), plus the artists in that "Fans also like" list — Floating Points' *Crush* in particular scratches a very similar itch.
