ok, this started out as one of my uni assignments. I was supposed to compose a track to sound like 1 of 14 specified artists - varying from Ar, to Damien Rice, to Portishead to Barry Manilow - i chose squarepusher. I don't think it sounds much like him tho...
what do you think? :-/
a genuine hoax

it has moments where you think mmm, and is actually not a bad track, but it doesnt sound like squarepusher really at all overall that is all.

I quite like this, but it didnt sound too much like squarpusher, except the chord at 1:58 (that was spot-on). Maybe I've listened too much to Tom Jenkinson, so maybe you'll fool your teacher.
I really like the hihat sounds on it, those were excellent.

this is a really cool track actually. it has elements of squarepusher definetely. kind of like a deviation of his style. I can imagine him releasing something like this if he hadn't gone down certain routes

It's not so bad, but it's not Squarepusher esque. but hell, if it inspires you, keep putting out bangin' rock and roll tracks like this, dude.

your right, boc is easy to mimic. they need to turn thier "original" knob to full power

Its hard to make it sound totally authentic. The sounds are really easy, but the beats are not so easy. The have a way of sloppy programming that really works.

just because boc's music structure is often a lot simpler than most 'idm' does not mean they are unoriginal.
btw this is not a bitchy post so i include a smiley :)

i can hear the []< in there, but not too much. if you had some more off the wall beatage then you be alot closer. that doesnt mean its not a good track, which it is. its a really excellent vibe, squarepusher or not.
feel free to check out any of my tracks, which are linked in my thread

Yeah, good track but not exactly like Squarepusher (although, his sound varies tremendously from like, Music is a Rotted One Note and Hard Normal Daddy to Go Plastic or DYKS)
BoC were original and I love them, but their music is a lot more easy to imitate than Squarepusher's. Those detuned synth patches, deep analog base notes, their typical 3 chords wich crop up in a lot of their songs from all their albums, those hip hopppy-ish drums, kids voices, nature sounds, short interlude tracks blah blah.
