squarepusher Squarepusher - Shobaleader One: d'Demonstrator

We'll all probably spend the entire album waiting for the BEATS to kick in, and I bet they never will. "New direction" and all that. I'm still eager to hear it, just wondering why he'd choose to abandon arguably his greatest strength.

he hasn't released anything interesting since go plastic. of the big idm acts, his early albums are the only ones i still listen to, so it's a shame he's decided to become a bona fide elevator musician. i guess all the comparisons to jaco went to his head.

Is that so? The man hasn't lost it, at least musically he hasn't.

I'm not sure what your point is, but you do know that it was originally released around 1996? That's the same year Feed me.. was released.

It's irrelevant.

i am probably the guy that Squarepusher fans hate right now, because I'm young, unaware of anything prior to JAS, and am pretty fucking excited for this album.

The concept is ace, the promo clip was fan-bloody-tastic, his new mask is great, and the artwork is the best I've seen in a long time.

Seriously, I'm a sucker for simple iconic album covers. I love it.

it says "i'm not from this world, but I'm about to show you how it's done"

I'm aware of just about everything he's done and I love this stuff! (JAS too)

The proggish direction is fine by me, the man has too much talent to do drill and bass forever...

age is everybody's e-penis, so don't sweat it. everything before JAS is worth hearing sometime. if you ever have the chance (and haven't yet), listen to those other albums of his! really a different season of music back then. i can see why you'd view this as a nice next step in his musical metamorphosis

He's been dabbling with dub for a long time, it's about time he fully embraces it!

One of his very best tunes.

I just feel sorry for you. You have no idea what you're missing out on.

PS: Youth is no excuse, as I recall you're about my age.

Yes, great track! I love his downtempo melodic stuff as well (particularly the "Iambic Poetry" pieces).

by that token i take it we're all supposed to grow old and move on to truly appreciate indie rock, become yuppie/hipster hybrids, and then eventually die. looking back at shitkicking music which absolutely massacred everything else you were listening to at the time would be retarded, because indie rock is the way. if we were more mature in our younger years we could have cut out this sound effect bullshit and gotten to the core of real mature music .

Yup! Indeed!

I'm personally looking forward to this, can't be worse than Moby's new Christian metal assplay.
