Ultravisor
Tom Jenkinson’s particular brand of drum and bass is almost an anomaly in the world of dance music: dance music that you can’t dance to. But to be fair, dance music is just one facet of Jenkinson’s music, and as Squarepusher, the prodigy has touched upon everything from funky jazz fusion to frenetic digital cutups to ambient soundscapes. “Ultravisor” takes all these elements and combines them in a sonic package that lurches from placid to maddening, often over the course of just a few seconds. To Jenkinson, rapid-fire beat barrages and mellow jazz explorations are just two parts of his personality, and without one or the other, the pioneering Squarepusher just wouldn’t be as interesting.
