After a lengthy hiatus from the mongrel take on jungle with which Squarepusher made his name--time he spent dallying in the distant realms of instrumental jazz and music concrete, collected best on the difficult but ultimately rewarding Music Is Rotted One Note. Such is this man's genius for deconstructing music to the basest levels and then mischievously piecing it back together in a devilishly mutated form. However, it's not always easy to see exactly where each individual root lies; opening single \"My Red Hot Car\" pilfers its whip-crack snare-snap straight from the record box of the UK garage crew, but before long, Jenkinson is freezing the melodies into hard slabs of distortion and hurling them back as craggy percussive junglist crashes. \"The Exploding Psychology\" proves he's still got a passion for the impossibly complex, but the grand charm of Squarepusher is that he's always approached the most experimental musical forms without feeling like he has to clot the fluidity of his music into dry scientific endeavor. This might be music made by a probable Mensa candidate, but a quick listen to the deranged, glitch-ridden alien jungle-hop of \"Go! Spastic\" should tell you everything you need to know; namely, that Go Plastic is Squarepusher's most consistently enjoyable record yet. --Louis Pattison \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e REVIEW \u003cbr\u003e The king of experimental drum and bass cut-ups is back with more recycled timestretched madness. Taking a darker and more complex approach to song writing this time, he's managed to push beat manipulation to it's furthest coherent limits all without sacrificing the overall integrity of a 'song'.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFor all it's 250+bpm madness, there remains some lovely melodic touches - especially on tracks like \"I Wish You Could Talk\" and \"My Red Hot Car\". However, for all the dextrous and filtered wonder on this album, there is a rather disturbing trend with Mr. Jenkinson's work as of late. As you begin comparing his releases, you notice it's often the same loops used over and over again - the differences between them only in how they are arranged. \"Bonneville Occident\", for example, could easily be a remix of \"Come On My Selector\". For a man this talented, innovation should be a walk in the park. In any case, Mr. Jenkinson is still way ahead of the rest of us . but for how much longer?. --Olli Siebelt\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFind more music at the BBC This link will take you off Amazon in a new window\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rarewaves","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39678768709729,"sku":"5021603086111","price":9.83,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0092\/7504\/8033\/products\/orig_311278_2916995.jpg?v=1705671839","url":"https:\/\/www.rarewaves.com\/products\/5021603086111-go-plastic","provider":"Rarewaves.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
