Title: Predictability is boring
Review: Conformity is too. Tom Jenkinson, a.k.a. "Squarepusher," has the innate ability to create music that sounds erratic and frenetic, yet comes together in the end. The result is the forming of complex streams of rhythm and sonic rhyme, expanding well beyond the genre of "techno" into which the music of Squarepusher is pigeonholed. Though anything but mainstream, Squarepusher and the release "Hard Normal Daddy," appeals to all of my frinds who are willing to slightly diverge from the norm. The release "Hard Normal Daddy" provides the listener with all that is irresistably abstract about Squarepusher. This could range from interwoven primitive beats that seem to communicate more than simply play, to melodic grooves straight from the mother ship. Sounding more similar to "Big Loada" than Squarepusher's "Music is rotted one note" or "Budakhan Mindphone," "Hard Normal Daddy" proves to be an enduring, exciting, and rare type of recording in the realm of electronica.
