squarepusher Clifford Gilberto Rhythm Combination

I Was Young And I Needed The Money! is a sweet album :) if nothing else, this thread can be to appreciate this dude's one and only album.

BUT! i have to ask what your views are on this Florian Schmitt fella. his style is remarkably close to squarepusher's. the album was released when jenkinson was releasing jazzy drum n bass, a year or two after feed me weird things+hard normal daddy were released. it was released on ninja tune, and this could be a way for him to release just that much more over two aliases. not to forgot it's this guys only album.

another thought that crossed my mind was that it could be tom and vibert? i don't really think it sounds all that tom and vibert, but it does have the drum n bass skills that the both of them have shown + lots of samples used in the album (samples = vibert) + vibert is also a ninja tunes dude so it's not that farfetched?

or maybe this really is by a guy called florian schmitt and i'm just being overly suspicious :)

jazz

i thought dude was astrud gilbertos son

this shit sounds almost exactly like hard normal daddy squarepusher. like, jesus christ, moreso than flashbulb

Until someone introduces me to Clifford or whatever his real name is, I will always believe Squarepusher was behind some of that album. That Deliver The Weird track is why I believe that.

"Clifford Gilberto, the unknown lovechild of Astrud Gilberto and Stan Getz, was born 28 years ago in the middle of nowhere..."

You've convinced me.

listen to the track earth vs me

too pusherd

Thank you for this thread, never heard about this album, but I'm at the first song and I already think it's good.

I often can't really be bothered anymore to check out new artists because most of the time they suck, but this one's good, I dig most of Jimmy Edgar's tunes I had never heard, Anthony Rother is kind of good so 2009 is fine so far musically.

The album came out in 1998.

Yeah I mean the year 2009 is fine musically for me personally, discovering good new artists and stuff.

Deliver the Weird sounds a lot like Squarepusher's Theme btw, but I'm not sure it's Tom some tracks don't sound like his typical stuff at all.

i can't fully enjoy it just in case he ripped off squarepusher

unless jazz-fusion drillnbass is like the differential calculus

i like this jazz-fusion wank, thanks for bringing it to my attention

clifford gilberto is a super sweet name too

bye

yeah. not too sure if most of it really sounds like squarepusher, but the drum programming skillz and overall jazziness of it all, plus its only a year or so after that era of squarepusher so if it just a ripoff then he was awefully speedy about it. still good tho :)

Wow, this is really damn good.

Just made it up to Deliver The Weird and this totally feels like something off of Hello Everything.

yeah, KY was spot on when he compaired it to hard normal daddy squarepusher, followed by saying jesus christ.

Some of it is SO reminiscent of Tobin, though, Like Ms. Looney's Last Embrace. It almost sounds like the whole album is those two trading off.

funny. when i first heard this i was convinced it was a split tobin/squarepusher venture...who knows. i reply to dead thread.

Forgot all about this but I remember it being a solid fun bit of Squarepusher ripping off.

I also recently found this Christoph de Babalon guy who goes firmly into Squarepusher territory in some of his stuff and is also rather good, I think he goes back to the mid 90s too

this is good stuff i listened to it the other day.

I only really like brazillian freestyle or whatever it's called off of this album.

Both the EP and the album are great. Love them. I have no idea who's behind this florian schmidt alias, but if he's a real person and these are his only two releases it's a goddamned tragedy.

agreed. this guy just fell off the face of the earth. this is a great album, been listening to it since i got the funkungfusion sampler soooooooo long ago.
