Dum, tish, dum dum, dumdumdumdumd, tish tish tisisisisisisisiisisisis, blam. Yes, well done, it's Squarepusher!! It's the new LP, Burningn'n Tree. (Spelt just like that, with added n's) Actually, it's not really new, because most of the tracks are older ones released done on Spymania around '95 and '96. But their age doesn't distract from their pure drum and bass frenzy brilliance. Kicking off with the imaginatively titled "Track 1" which sets the tone for the whole album really, this sounds like cheezy shopping music speeded up a million times with added whirrs and chip pan crackles. And all the way through this (like on the subtly named "Track 2" for instance) we get breaks of background jazz and funky bass, sweeping waves of sound being punched into your face by breakneck beats that just sound too fast to be true. It'd be totally impossible for anybody to dance to this, but I'd love to see them try...... Actually, it's not all super fast drills and machines, there's plenty of places where you can take a breath and relax for a minute, just a quick minute mind you, before the next infectious drum loop takes you in again. My fave track would be the glamorously named "Track 9", which is way too short (1.27) but is totally excellent. This release is well worth the cash by the way, the whole thing clocks in at around seventy minutes, much better than that shitty Japanese Import EP that you ordered off the Web for some criminal price. Of course, it can all prove too much, and unless you've heard any of Squarepushers stuff before, I wouldn't recommend this to any newbie drum and basser type. Get Hard Normal Daddy (also by Mr. Pusher) before you get this, 'cause that one doesn't aurally assault you as much as this piece of killer drum-fest. There, that's it, all said. Bye.
