Hint's debut album, Portakabin Fever, was released on the Hombre independent record label in association with Ninja Tune on 22 April 2003.

The album's inlay features a cartoon drawn by graphic artist Will Barras, in which Hint is depicted fishing in the (imagined) swamp outside his home.

The cartoon prompted a comic strip loosely based on James' lifestyle, which was serialised in Japanese magazine, Plus 81.

[2] The album was mixed at State of Art, the Bristol-based studio owned by Geoff Barrow of Portishead.
