Music Is Rotted One Note
Squarepusher
Tom Jenkinson opted to play live bass, drums, and keyboards for this project, abandoning his usual digital methods. The result is a raw, spontaneous jam session that feels like a radical departure from electronic norms.
Released during the height of the experimental movement, the record looks back to seventies fusion for inspiration. It remains an outlier in the discography, trading programmed precision for a gritty, human-led style that prioritizes the spirit of the performance.
