Yes, probably he is. I think Squarepusher is often too much "jazzy" while Paradinas music varied more.
What do you think?

you can't really say what's better or worse. maybe what you like better :)
anyway, i prefer squarepusher. just suits ny taste better. and while tom is maturing in his music, paradinas is going more childish it seems. and im not so fond of childish beatz :)

I agree with tolstoyed here.
I wouldn't really know if Tom is better than Mike. I personally find both of them, two very talented artists for my taste.
Perhaps I've got more favourite tracks by µ than [], though.

having seen both live twice, sqaurepusher is a much better performer, i found muziq to be a little uninspired. however for music both are pretty damn decent. i vote 'pusher tho, cos Tundra 4 is just, well amazing.

I think they're both a moody pair of bastards. Both release too much guff. Both did super debut albums then a lot of the same but worse. I own more records by u-ziq. I probably listened more to u-ziq. Some squarepusher is unlistenable, some u-ziq is just bad. u-ziq did "Bantha Tracks" which i really like, Tang n Vectif is awesome, Lunatic Harness is great too. Pusher's "Feed me weird things" is great, ... I like a couple of tracks on Ultravisitor. I am going to say I prefer u-ziq.

I prefer Squarepusher, hes got a better ratio of good to bad tracks and hes great live, where as Mike is a boring DJ and only fun 'live' cause he has some great tracks for big sound systems

He is really good at setting the atmosphere but not making it boring.
Plus when he plays bass live to thats song off DO YOU KNOW SQUAREPUSHER it's fucking crazy entertaining.
He has a good interaction going on, I enjoyed it heaps.

He epileptics fits on his bass and fiddles with a huge rack of equipment and shouts and makes you wonder if youre dead. he must be one of the most involved live performers in electronic music

no, some matters surpass personal taste. kinda like the hip-waiste ratio for women. that shit is built-in in everybody's brain. that has nothing to do with personal taste. people who like muziq more than the square are mistakes of nature.

It's hard to compare the artists when they've both been around for a while and both evolved in style. I think µ-Ziq's early releases are better than Squarepusher's early releases, but Squarepusher's more recent stuff is better than µ-Ziq's. Although both artists' latest albums have been pretty disappointing. So overall I would say µ-Ziq is better.

µ-Ziq, Mike, is really just a playboy label owner now. Who knows what 'pusher is up to. He really gets into his music. I'll go with Jenkinson.

Well if youre implying that squarepusher is more consistent in regards to the quality of his music, uh, I dont know. Certainly hes had as man foul up as µ-ziq, however Tom can play actual instruments, and really well too.
