Alright, i just bought the new Squarepusher today and here are my thoughts on it: 1. Definitely the most complex fucking work Tom Jenkinson has ever done! 2. Much more synthetic than previous SP works, but much more complex. Definitely a far far cry from Selection Sixteen. 3. Although his work still doesn't sound jazzy like his older works, it still has the principles of jazz, that improvisational feel. 4. It is the loudest, most noisy work Tom J has done. Some of the rushes on here definitely rival, if not, top, those on Aphex's Richard D James Album. How about you? What do you ppl in AFX Land think? |

i'm with aron on this one. i listened to some of 'go! plastic' and i thought it was bloody mental. i can't say that i'm surprised - 'cos i sort of guessed that squarepusher was an absolute loon before this. i do like his madness though. |

Style over content, I reckon. "Listen to all these crazy sounds I can make with my gadgets!" Less is more, and all that business. I think it's a bit of overkill. |

All i have so far is "Music is Rotted One Note," "Selection Sixteen" and "Go Plastic" so far. I like both his styles, personally. I guess it depends what sort of mood you're in. My fave song by him has to be "My Sound" off "Music is Rotted One Note." His jazzier material, playing tape decks and such as he does live improvised instrumentals, is what influences my live performance style. Except my melodies are a bit more pre-planned than his. :) |

just one listen so far and we laughed & cried at it's gorgeousness Put it this way, i've had FMWT for 4 years and i still hear rhythmns i never heard before!!!. Its food for the soul, like aphex.... also had the privelage of hearing some "go plastic" stuff live in dublin....then went to barcelona to see him but he was ill. I'd be sick if i made something so rich...(imagine einstein after formulating e=mc.sqrd!!!!). |

Big Loada is a good album. It has super complex beats and nice melodies. But he also play his bass on some of the tracks like Come on My Selector and Problem Child. I recon Big Loada is my favorite album from Mr. Jenkinson. I'm gonna go and get Go Plastic on the weekend though, and who knows, maybe I'll like it more... |

OK, guys begin the Squarepusher experience with Feed Me Weird Things. That's a very very good piece of his shit. |

Well, I just got the album delivered this morning. And... wow! It's fucking amazing. How the hell does he make that? It's so complex! This is the first Squarepusher album I've bought (although I burned my own compilation of his songs a while ago on my PC) and certainly won't be the last! |

i have now listened more extensively - and it is the bollocks. it just kicks arse. hardcore shit with an edge of beauty. this morning, i was on the train listening to it on my walkman and i was lovin' it, and then some bitch asked me to turn it down. i did nothing but look at her with evil eyes. |

"Psultan" by Squarepushers a.ka. Chaos A.D (find it on "The Braindance Coincidence") is the ultimate, squelchy ass-kicker.....the end just goes on and on remorselessly. Anyone else find it hard to find Chaos AD stuff out there? I've asked every 'alternative' record shop in dublin to order it! (mp3's?- i know, but to have the vinyl!!) |

I'm glad you agree with me now, rubbish jon. :) Anyways, if you bastards out there can't wait for new Aphex, then get the new Squarepusher. It is choatic audio beauty at its finest.... and it inspired me to write......... An 11-minute track. With about eight different tempos. Not too impressive but a start. I'd put it on my Angelfire home page, but it would take about five days to get it uploaded to the site. |

That's nothing! I once made a 30 minute track. I suppose it was more like one continuous album... but even though it changed a lot throughout (to avoid it getting repetitive) it still sort of kept to the song. Now - trying to upload THAT would be a task! |
