I am sitting in a room...

Not a useful and productive day; I could have got more done if I'd stopped home in bed. Meanwhile, the greater mass of humanity took every possible opportunity to make me think ill of them ( Read more... )

Like Venetian Snares? Try Squarepusher too. Not as severe drill n' bass as VS, but Mr. Jenkinson can still crank out an unholy racket when he wants to.

I'll swear when I saw him live in 2001, he was just jamming screwdrivers into sockets on the back of his gear to see what noises he could make.

You missed the obvious title for that post... :)

Do I know Squarepusher? Yes. I think my favourite track is still 'Squarepusher theme'.

That album, 'Artificial Intelligence' and 'Mars Audiac Quintet' vaguely bracket a relatively pleasant time of decade.

Yes. DHM reminded me that it was lying around somewhere and I'd better listen to it properly. It's good to be prodded into listening to something non-obvious like that.

I should probably subscribe to The Wire, but it would end up in strokey-beard prayer hat land.

Freaky, I just came across that same album linked up elsewhere. Tis good, I may have to make a trip to the local surly record store and pick up a hard copy.
