alright, moving my replies from the other thread:
I want to speak of this album, because i was listening to an Aphex Twin mix - Live at ATP - and i heard him spin Dedicated Loop and realized that this is a Squarepusher album that doesn't receive much talk.

I love the beginning of freeway.
Snake Pass is a little too 'techno-rave' for me.

another moved thread: some of the bonus tracks (the tracks w/ Ceephax) are interesting too. Especially Schizm Track 2.
i remember trying to sleep with this album playing, and the
first fucking bonus tracks woke me the FUCK up with that loud ass horn.
mappatazee: yeah, it is, but i just like the darkness to it. And the Ceephax mix is stellar.

damn this is one well-polished album - you ALWAYS hear people talk about either Feed Me Weird Things or Budakhan Mindphone, but never this one. Then again, Squarepusher's music is a continuously evolving body.
Square Rave is a decent dancable, too.

Nah, I haven't spoken to Matt in a while yet. I really should do soon, the single's nearly completed, I think.
I think I definitely prefer Squarepusher's weird/experimental/fusion stuff to his drum'n'bass. The pre-Rotted Note stuff doesn't appeal to me at all.

Oh, I enjoy Music is Rotted One Note as well! My Sound is easily one of my favourite Tom J songs EVER - it's just i think Selection Sixteen is underrated.

this was the first sq cd i bought, and i was kind of disappointed though there were a few tracks that i really liked a lot. square rave, dedicated loop, and tomorrow world are 3 of my favorite sq tracks.

if it had been my first Squarepusher album, i think i would've been a bit disappointed too... but luckily, i bought it after i got Hard Normal Daddy, and i was so fascinated by HND that at that moment i was ready to accept anything from Sq...
'Selection..' is probably his most incostistent release, but i still feel affection for this album. Dedicated Loop is easily one of his best tracks.

this was the worst album by squarepusher .... OR SO I THOUGHT.
i hated it on first listen, but now, a mere 20 months later, i realise it is one of his best releases. Ceephax is one of my all time favs, and snakethingymabob.

for some reason i dont know hardly any of squarepusher's track titles.
But i do know that on S16 i really like 2,4, and 5.
Its a pretty rad album that really doesnt sound like much anything else tommy has done.

2 - Square Rave 4 - Dedicated Loop 5 - Tomorrow World
those seem to be consistent favourites among Tom J fans.

This is a good CD, but I'm not sure on some of the tracks. The Schizm ones are a bit meh, and Snake Pass is awful.

It's not so coherent as an album in the same way that Feed Me Wierd Things is, and certainly not as much as Go Plastic which is completely organic... but it still has some excellent tracks. Tommorrow World, Time Borb, the Ceephax Mix... Acid Tape Track too... I love his improv jazz stuff but I think this album could have been easier to enjoy if there were a few less, or if they were laid out so they didn't feel like filler.

They are a selection of 16 squarepusher tracks. There are 17 tracks on the album but one of the tracks is a Ceephax Acid Crew track.
