It seems a lot of you were waiting for Numbers Lucent. So, what's the verdict?
For me it's Just a Souvenir, definitely.

Even though I haven't yet listened to Numbers Lucent at all... I can safely say Just a Souvenir is the better of the two.

just a souvenir for me. numbers lucent is good and all (espicially tracks 3n4... 5's good too) but just a souvenir is just a little better.

Numbers Lucent's goodness! But Just a souvenir definitely rules!! My top 2 Squarepusher albums are... 1. Hello Everything 2. Just a Souvenir

love NL for it's melodic dancefloor killer headbanging tracks
love JAS for the thrash metal zappaesque headbanging tunes
the livesets from 2008 bring it all together nicely

i thought just a souvenir would be a bit shitty and boring, as i dont like the squarepusher jazzy stuff that much, but it is pretty good and fun, it makes me laugh with its rock beats and makes me flow with great melodies. and it has that special quality of making me feel entering in a new original space... jenkinsons quality

Just A Souvenir is a greater achievement and contains lots of originality (at least as far as Tom's output is concerned), whereas Numbers Lucent is a pretty straightforward, but banging old school SP EP... I'd have to pick the album, just because it's something different.

its curious how the two albums im listening at the moment are first and last jenkinsons creations, chaos a.d. versus just a souvenir.
all my respect for jenkinsons career, always delivering good music, and always evoluting and still keeping his own (bipolar) style.

numbers lucent is alright. some good stomping club tracks. some disposable squarepusher party music. a bit squarepusher by numbers in places.
just a souvenir on the other hand is a mind bending stonker of an album and features some of tom jenkinson's most interesting work to date.

yea, i know, but its always mixed with other things, electronic attitude or the rock bits of this last. i meant, you vinicelish guy, that i dont like when its just jazz, tom messing with his bass + acoustic jazz drums. thats why i dont like music is rotted one note or some tunes of just a souvenir.

You're allowed to prefer part 1 or part 2.. Though i don't see why numbers lucent should be 'part 2'. Anyway who cares. :P
I look forward to the new one.

This thread has reiterated how much I have neglected both of these. I will rectify that as soon as I can.
I do, however, remember loving 'The Coathanger' and the lyrics to 'A Real Woman'. That makes me LOL hard.

On the second day of listening to 'Numbers Lucent', I think its significantly better. Not one track I don't like. More accessible for sure.
Also, I like Squarepusher jazzyness.

now i love both albums, maybe just a souvenir a little more (its so brilliant), but i think both are complementaries, diferents points in same concept, its just like numbers lucent's tracks didnt fit in the album,
and were released in an ep instead...
