don't you find some of his new stuff (for example "my fucking sound" thing) to be just a crazy noise? i had some problems with accustoming to "go plastic" tracks but some of them will sound shitty for me forever, i think

"exploding psychology" is great but some tracks sound as a children playing with too powerfull sound-tools. Maybe computers took control of Jenkinson mind?

I've got a feeling that Go Plastic was the end of a certain era for SQPR...feels like he's taken his sound pretty much as far as he can take it...
I'm soooo hoping that AFX + SQPR work on some more stuff together for the MEN label...that Freeman, Hardy & Willis Acid track on the Warp100 comp is one of my fave collabs...
AFX isn't, I guess, that into doing collabs with people but can't help feeling that without TomJ, AFX's current sound would be a lot difference...
Everyone needs a kick up the arse sometimes and I think AFX got that when SQPR came along....

I'm a huge fan of them both but I really don't want to see them do collaborations...I think these guys work best on their own possibly
As for My Fucking Sound...yes, I think its shit and parts of GP are genius, but that's the way he works, I don't care, as along as he pumps out amazing tracks occasionally!

you gotta admit, track 6 on go plastic is top drum and bass.
and the tune on the braindance (chaos AD squarepusher mix) is the creme dela bollocks!!

yeah, sixth track on "go plastic" is old good drum'n'bass. Although "go plastic" is in the shadow of Jenkinson's new software and equipment.

yeah...in a recent interview aphex said he would like to collaborate with tom...but they werent using the same program yet...he said they were setting it up so they could work together over the internet or something...same with luke vibert
and yeah...i think go plastic was the result of tom exploring new equipment...while trying to achieve a real 'brutal digital sound' as he said in an interview a while ago

my fucking sound = the first ambient drill 'n' bass track. go plastic's great, 'cause it shows innovation not just on the technical side, but in song structure as well. I could go on, but reasoning doesn't make you like music. just listen some more, you'll come around eventually.

i used to play track 5 in my car all the time on top volume(only w/passengers involved)...and whenever the long brutal generator-like noise came about(you know what i'd talking about) i'd act as if my car was about to explode and i'd get them in a scared panic for a few seconds.
really funny. confuses people
also, when i'm driving alone and a car pulls up next to me...the song does it's justice

MY FUCKING SOUND.....is pure genious.
it took a while for me but when i hear the opening now.......i enter a real alien state of anticipation that few tracks do for me..waiting for those violent 'dongs'
What clinched this tune for me is one of the warp radio sets where the guy mixes it with Boc....A-FUCKING-MAZING
As for the rest? a reviewer said it well when he said tom seems to jump to the year 3000ad, get the best riffs, hooks etc and bring 'em back and slap it all together.
Red hot car = catchy tune = album opener to reel you in to the craziness....
BRILLIANT..OUT-THERE - UNIQUE

go plastic is really nice. sounds like a sweet mix of the darker freejazz era pusher and earlier stuff. really nice, on constant rotation.
especially the climax on greenways trajectory are ace...the beats are so neatly packed together they sound like some listening test high frequency tones...brilliant.

did i mention before that when i saw him live in dublin last year, he apparently got into a scrap with the promoters and a week later he didn't play at Sonar cos "he was sick" according to a warp rep i met there.
Did the fight put him off? then Cylob played here a few weeks after that and i met him and asked him, being a braindancer too "whatever happend to tom in barcelona?" and he said "he was too busy making a track to bother leaving his hotel"...sounds a bit too much what the-fans-wann-hear to me, that.
anyway it's a fact that he's known to be a stubborn, narky kinda guy......aw well...he's artist that speaks to me most so who cares anyway!
