If Four Tet is Santa, then his fans must have been extra nice this year — the electronic artist born Kieran Hebden will be ringing in Christmas tonight by releasing two new albums, Parallel and 871.

Hebden announced the new albums via Twitter and Instagram posts that simply read, "My new albums Parallel and 871 will be released tonight at midnight. Artwork by Jason Evans." That's one of the album's covers above.

The new albums follow Sixteen Oceans, which was released in March. Since then, he's kept busy, releasing an EP released under his wingdings alias, remixes of CaribouDestiny's ChildKrust and Tame Impala, and new tracks with Burial and Thom Yorke, along with contributing to a new Madlib album, Sound Ancestors, due in January.

Check out the Instagram announcement below.
