I've been collecting records for as long as I can remember, and sometimes it's easy to skip over things, and forget what you've got. I'm going to start listening to things in alphabetical order, it give me a chance to look through my collection again, and give me an opportunity to share things with other music lovers, and vinyl collectors.
The rules are simple, I will start at A, and choose an artist from my collection beginning with that letter, next day I move on to B, then C, etc.
Alongside Aphex Twin, Squarepusher is one of the most innovative musicians around, and has been inspirational in taking forwards electronic music, with his production skills and creativity ably assisted by his phenomenal bass playing. If fact I would rate him as one of my favourite bass players, something he doesn't get nearly enough recognition for.
Feed Me Weird Things is his debut release, released on Rephlex, the label launched by Aphex Twin. It's a wonderful mix of jazzy grooves and intricate, intense programming. Here's a few pics from my copy, a recent reissue which also includes a booklet and an extra 10" record...
And a few tracks from the album, to get you fired up...
