| 2001 album ; tom jenksinon’s return to step-sequenced form, following a few not-all-that-warmly-received (despite being quite nice) live-instrumentation based outings ... skip past the single / lead-off tracks (if you must) to find easily jenkinson’s most abstract-yet-rhythmic work, meticulously organized sound-events, ranging from the jungle / drum ‘n’ bass signifiers to elements clearly influenced by musique concrète & “academic” electro-acoustic composition.
i must say that this is pretty far removed from linear / “dancefloor” tactics, and in retrospect (and it certainly has been a few years, hasn’t it?) it’s become one of my 3 favorite squarepusher discs ; repeatedly the soundtrack to my 3am weekend drives back from nyc ... |
| | | go plastic is the record that folks have been waiting for... a more aggro, technologically-oriented outing. the incredibly catchy leadoff single, 'my red hot car,' is revisited as a mind-bending two-step workout, lee scratch perry stylee. dub and d'n'b elements weigh in heavy on go plastic. breaks rush by at the speed of light only to be tethered to some of jenkinson's moodiest melodic work. go plastic is simply one of the most exciting, sinister records of the year. |
