Squarepusher Artist Snapshot:

Prolific British musician Tom Jenkinson (a.k.a. Squarepusher) creates dazzling electronica built around not only his imaginative use of circuitry and found sounds, but his virtuosic musicianship (especially drums and bass) and compositional skills. Jenkinson's music often eschews melodic hooks for intricate polyrhythms and challenging harmonic excursions, like some next wave of jazz. His first album was released in 1996 on Rephlex, the label of Richard D. James (Aphex Twin), who became a close friend and mentor. Though his first few recordings fit rather neatly in the jungle/acid slot, each subsequent one has revealed more and more of Jenkinson's unique, jazz-inflected style.

Review

Q (8/01, p.141) - 3 stars out of 5 - "...Absolutely popping with potential..."
Alternative Press (2/02, p.64) - Ranked #4 in AP's "25 Best Albums of 2001" - "...The ultimate mindf*** album..."
The Wire (6/01, p.66) - "...A rough, complex sound...seemingly a return to his 'Ardcore roots, but updated with the caustic obsessiveness of a Richard Devine..."
Mixmag (7/01, p.204) - 3 out of 5 - "...Its sudden bursts of deep dub, short-tempered thrusts of aggression and twisted genius make it the modern equivalent of a Jane's Addiction album..."
Mojo (Publisher) (7/01, p.97) - "...Dazzling....In this digital mash-up, bleeps, blasts and super-speed breaks constantly morph, accelerating to a blur or suddenly grinding to a halt..."
NME (Magazine) (6/23/01, p.40) - 9 out of 10 - "...Here's the most exciting album of the year....It doesn't just prick pomposity, it steamrollers it...you won;t hear another album like this all lifetime..."

Title Note

Squarepusher: Tom Jenkinson.

Rather than repeat the success of his jazz-oriented 1999 IDM gem MUSIC IS ROTTED ONE NOTE, Squarepusher's Tom Jenkinson takes a sharp turn into hardcore breakbeat and drum n' bass on 2001's GO PLASTIC. The two-step-influenced opener "My Hot Red Car" is as close as the album gets to a conventional tune, with the rest of the disc careening into frenetically programmed rhythms and sonic mayhem. Challenging and confrontational, yet as carefully tailored as his more accessible work, GO PLASTIC proves that Jenkinson likes to keep his public guessing.
