Squarepusher
Squarepusher, the stage name of Tom Jenkinson, is a British electronic music artist (born in Chelmsford, Essex) signed to Warp Records. A trained bass guitar player and drummer, his style of extremely fast, cut-up beats mixed with fusion jazz and interlaced with strange samples has gained him a cult following. He is friends with Richard D. James (Aphex Twin) and his albums have been critically acclaimed for their forward-thinking approach. The music of Squarepusher is extremely difficult to comprehend on the first listen, as his work is so different to the work of most 'normal' musicians. His brother, Andy Jenkinson, is also a recording artist, under the name Ceephax Acid Crew.
