There's not a producer alive that understands drum n bass as well as Tom Jenkinson. This man broke it down and took it to another level. How fast it sounds without sounding like shit. All the beats flying by at 1,000 miles an hour. How?! Listen to 3:27 onwards. Wtf??? It's like he sampled drums at a million bpm and arranged them in such a way that the brain can actually process it. I wish I could describe it, it's insane.
When people talk about editing film, even when it's insane shit like taking 14 hours of footage of 3 hours of actual content and editing into 45 minutes... I always think of Squisher and the greats like Mike and Rich
I still love how the track seems to stumble around between a ragga jungle dance-floor anthem and pure chaos. It's a summary of everything that was great about the late nineties underground music scene.
@@turalyon650 He used a couple FM Yamaha rack synths, an Eventide Orville and a Yamaha QY700 sequencer as well as a TB-303 I think but that's just an educated guess, sounds like he uses a 303 on a few tracks here and there. Absolute genius, this tier of music is so high that it's hard to believe he didn't do any of it with some sort of DAW.
Main reason I'm currently trying to master it. All my stuff on my channel is like from quite a few or so years ago. I don't remember. As for now, I'm not even close of course to anything like this, but after the 4000 or so hours I've spent practicing it, I'd say I have about 6000 left. So about 12 more years.
20 years old, still a towering achievement that sounds like it could’ve been released yesterday.😞I miss that era of music. Like say 95-2005 or so. The sheer bulk of crazy good music across all genres from that time is .... staggering.
AGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHGGGGGGGGGGGGGA AAAA AAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA breakbeat SCHEASZKDASLIAU OOOOOOO OHHH OHOHOH OO O O OOOOOOOOOOO breakbeat HAY HAY HAY *breaks your ass*
I can't even begin to explain how this song has opened my mind as a producer and a DJ. It was like he was giving us a quick music history lesson, while taking us to a deeper level that is rarely explored. Great tune and a spectacular album.
last xmas i gave you my heart but the very next day yuo gave it away this year to save me from tears i give it someone special..........lthe intrdimensionallalalalal space rape. thankyou x
@@emili0x wiki: "Squarepusher claims that the album was not produced using a computer, but rather by utilizing a range of hardware including the Eventide DSP4000 and Orvilledigital effects processors, BOSS DR-660 and Yamaha QY700 sequencers, Yamaha TX81Zand FS1R synthesizers, and an Akai S6000sampler."
I dont really think so I remember an article in an electronic music magazine like right around that time it was released where he said he used Reaktor...
@@moskva-kassiopeya but how could he have sequenced these peices of gear with such tiny millisecond scales of precision? I've been asking myself this question for years as im an electronic musician extremely influenced by this album and FINALLY feel like I'm starting to get some where moving in this direction using Pure Data.... as with some other albums likw Orbis Terrarum I REALLY wish I could get as much info as possible about its making and specific methodology and philosophy of creative development
@@moskva-kassiopeya I just made this a few days ago, hope you like it! yealace.bandcamp.com/track/dear-cadence-2 for the pure data stuff I have one little video on my channel, hope to upload more and with better video quality in the upcoming weeks....

macky gee
Dr Pavel, I'm CIA
Listen to Herbie Goes Ballistic by Venetian Snares, it's as crazy as this
@@ihaveagoddamnplanarthur Yep, I've heard that one too. It's very spastic but not quite as scientific and insane as this.

Seriously, this one song must have taken ages to produce. I love how fresh it still sounds today.
Truuu!!!😌
I know man, wow!
And all with sequencers too, no computer! :o
For real? Woah
He made this album with a single sampler and an FX pedal????? Holy fuck my respect for him just keeps growing

another level... this music is 12 years old and still AGES beyond 95% of the electronic music production out there there today, FACT
indeedy
> 95 %

Does anyone's else sing along to this song? It's exhausting.

@@Bakiyochi84420 LMAO
teeth drumming 10000000000000%
You would have to have the mouth features of an arachnid to play this song upon your mouthparts
Those vocal cuts at 38 seconds. Hot damn, son.
Telephasic Workshop with BPM.
This track definitely lives up to it's title
haha

1:49 to 2:10 is such running through some dimly lit underground tunnel in a video game music. It's fucking awesome.
Thanatos gta sounding
Totally agree…that section harkened a hybrid soundtrack of (somehow both) Duke Nukem and Leisure Suit Larry.
Almost similar to some earthbound tracks
I fully agree, I love this part
Could definitely fit in to a flash game made by Diseased Productions (Sean "Weasel" McGee)
Cheekiest bassline on the planet. Love this track.
favorite pusher album.
Legendary ending drum solo..... can't get rid of it 17 years later..... !!!!!
Some classic reggae right here!
what a piece of art
100% Better than everything Jungle related today. This album never ages, not a single track from the whole album.
fucking nailed it
20 years old now. I remember thinking Drukqs was the end all for drum editing. Then this record came out. Such an incredible era of music.
When the free form band barfs electronics in unison... Man I love Squarepusher...
You can't listen just once. It's like chip-dipped heroine.
next gen beats
Absolutely amazing tune!
this song is fucking mental
NO! It’s the data transfer \456 loop quantum gravity
Dance to this, I dare you
Damn, how did I get in this padded cell?
You know you could always do it if youre “intelligent”
Bring out the spastics!!
@@disectormusic Just saw this, and laughed. *thumbs up*
footwork maybe
last xmas i gave you my heart but the very next day yuo gave it away this year to save me from tears i give it someone special..........lthe intrdimensionallalalalal space rape.
thankyou x
Mo-Fi get help. We're here for u.
timeless
And they thought 170bpm was fast ...
I think 2560 bpm is slow
3:01 to 3:05 when you’re trying to wrap water in a parcel
Classic banger.
hyperjungle
I can’t even play along on air guitar
4:29 to 5:07 what a surprise. you think the songs over and then it's very much not.
2:30 is pretty cool.
You again!
this song is room temperature but itchy
Awwwwwww yissssss
one of the best cds i eva bought
You are listening to the sounds of a heavily jazz influenced musician on acid... aka a Prodigy.
The pusher is not from or of this world.
Made without computer
