There's a track that sounds extremely like, and was released before, Pulsewidth. I don't know the name of it...anyone?

 

 

haha yeh it was definitely one of those cases where i realized how similar they were after I had already finished most of pw

 

I think there is a track that also sounds VERY similar to something like Start As You Mean To Go On as well, but I can't remember what it is. Something similar from that era.

Most will already know but:

 

 

when that squarepusher record came out my first thought after "this is boring as fuck (sorry tom. you're still legend though)" was "cure riffs much, tom?" but everyone steals riffs from the cure.. there's tons of cure buried in coldplay songs.. not that i've scoured through cold play to name names.. but i've caught wind of them when i'm in the fertilizer section at the hardware store picking up bat guano for the garden and cold play comes on whatever shit sound track the store is playing.

ok just avin a laugh..
