3) it means nothing, it is just one of those internet aliases that kids make up that they think makes them sound really cool, like "ezkerraldean" for example. |

very good.. from Oxen of the Sun: EDY BOARDMAN (Bickering.) And say the one: I seen you up Faithful place with your squarepusher, the greaser off the railway, in his cometobed hat. Did you, says I. That's not for you to say, says I. You never seen me in the mantrap with a married highlander, says I. The likes of her! Stag that one is. Stubborn as a mule! And her walking with two fellows the one time, Kildbride the enginedriver and lancecorporal Oliphant. |

Years ago in an interview either Tom or Andy (can't remember) said that squarepusher was basicallty a euphonism for an acid dealer as acid is usually sold on little squares. But given the geeky nature of this music it could be nothing more than a reference to pushing buttons. Who knows? Who really cares? |

as bogala says, it's about pushing the boundaries of what is capable with machines. like, drum machines and shit are all programmed in a very regimented, "square" type fashion. he is trying to push this "square", hence the mental beats and interesting time signatures, that would not normally be associated with programming a beat on a machine. |

One day I was listening to him, and my youngest brother comes in, (he's 8) and he says, "What's this music?" So I tell him, "Squarepusher." He likes it, and starts dancing to it, but his interpretation was a square, like a big cube in a video game that goes around and pushes people, or traps them. And our lives are that videogame. He took it seriously, and went around saying, "I'm a squarepusher", trying to knock me over, while standing rigid with his arms bent at exact 90* angles in front of him, upward. I think we should all agree, this is what squarepusher means. |

it's a reference to back when Tom had to push/peddle LSD-blotters/squares to afford potnoodles and drummachines |

He's still there, I got tired and went home. Occaisionally, we'll bring him some food, and drop it in the hole. He's only gotten about 6 feet down. There's lots of rock there, but I don't want to spoil his dreams. |
