just picked up this cd with squarepusher today. On the
cover there is a nice story about squarepusher and it´s
signed PRrichard.D.Jams. I wonder who that could be.... ;-)

its a true mad up story of a man and a boy searching for the
perfect beat. Its an aphex meets squarepusher story, with
cylob playing second fiddle. Someone glassed some geezer in
the eye, a fight ensued, tom played his bass guitar ontop of
his "crazy" beats , people went mad for it, rich signed tom
then and there for rephlex

London, and i was thinking i wish i had stayes at home in my
studio. oh, i might as well stay and watch the bloke with
the bass guitar, who keeps wandering around behind the Dj
booth. that, i thought, is almost certainly going to be good
for a laugh.the next thing i felt was a fuzzy vibration, as
monophonic sound waves that had travelled from the other
side of the room at the speed of light, compressing the air
and displacing the smoke of ten spliffs, hit me in both ear
bones simultaneously. it was mr.jenkinson ho was turning my
heartbeat into the sound of a ring piece modulated resonant
phaselocked trapezoid backwards edit phlanged kick drum. he
made the sound of ambulances turn into slide trombones and
the sound of a secretary filling her nails into a 24-piece
string section. when my partner grant wilson clarriage saw
tom spasmodically twitching in order to play a funky
bassline in time with a 347 bpm drum n bass track, he
thought he should either be committed or recorded
(fortunately he chose the latter)
undobtedly, tom jenkinson is the first man in history to
orchestrate an akai-seltzer fizzing two mega bytes simms
memory upgrade chip (with 1 nanosecond access time) and a
toilet flushing. when mr jenkinson conducting, the rest of
the world is in the pit. one of his earliest experiments in
sound was recording an ant walking on sand. unfortnately,
the experiment was cut short by a cat meowing. of course,
this is not say that tom 'squarepushing' jenkinson was the
first person ever to discover that the sounds of everyday
life can be more melodious than the sounds the sounds of
traditional music. for instance, george bernhard shaw once
said "nothing soothes me more after a long day of pianoforte
recitals, than to sit and have my teeth drilled." the
squareousher is someone who wonders what the holes of a
flute sound like without the flute. sound like sound never
sounded before, richard rodgers and julie andrews gave us
the sound of music, john cage and simon garfunkel gave us
the sound of silence and now the
