squarepusher Anyone interested in a Squarepusher Listening Club?

[superstix]

Since the RDJ listening club is overwith and we're anxiously awaiting the new

 

Chronological order... you know the drill. I just ripped all my CDs today so I'm ready

 

Anyone?

[Guest tht tne]

i probably won't have much of value to add but i'm down... squarepusher is my fav+

[benc812]

yes

[Guest ruiagnelo]

why not?

[Friendly Foil]

yes!

[Retape]

sure

[beerwolf]

That would be cool, as I don't have much Squarepusher, so nice to read respected opinions.

 

All I have is Buzz Caner, Square Window, Venus 17 and Go Plastic. Very sad I know and lacks way behind Aphex and Autechre of which I have nearly everything.

 

Do it!

[superstix]

Okay so here's a rough draft of the list, dunno if I'm missing anything important... is this all we want to include? Let me know if anyone wants to make changes.

 

Week 1: Feed Me Weird Things / Hard Normal Daddy

Week 2: Bunringn'n'Tree / Music Is Rotted One Note

Week 3: Buzz Caner / Selection Sixteen

Week 4: Do You Know Squarepusher? / Alive In Japan (Should we do this one???)

Week 5: Go Plastic / Ultravisitor

Week 6: Hello Everything / Bonus 3" (Vacuum Tracks)

Week 7: Just A Souvenir / Solo Electric Bass (Should we count this one too??)

 

Hopefully by the time it's finalized we'll have a few more people who noticed this subforum haha

[benc812]

imo, we could probably do without alive in japan or solo electric bass

 

also, no big loada or venus no. 17?

[bubbhasdance]

Just saw this, sounds great!

 

We're missing Big Loada, Venus no. 17, Square Window...total classics! :)

 

What I tried to do with the Aphex listening cycle was have a full album and its companion EP (RDJ Album/Girl Boy, etc.). Most seemed to like it, I guess.

 

How about this:

 

Week 1: Feed Me Weird Things / Port Rhombus

Week 2: Big Loada / Burningn'n Tree

Week 3: Hard Normal Daddy / Vic Acid

Week 4: Music Is Rotted One Note / Maximum Priest

Week 5: Budakhan Mindphone

Week 6: Go Plastic / Do You Know Squarepusher?

Week 7: Ultravisitor / Square Window / Venus No. 17 *a little lengthy*

Week 8: Hello Everything / Vacuum Tracks

Week 9: Just A Souvenir / Numbers Lucent

 

It's a little lengthy, but the AFX cycle went on for 16 weeks and it was still pretty strong This is rough too, anyone is free to change.

[Wyern]

Sounds good!

 

Squarepusher has very good stuff in EP's I think the following are missing:

 

Squarepusher Pays..., Welcome to Europe EP, Stereotype EP

[benc812]

i would be down with a week of earlier stuff like a stereotype/crot/buzz caner week thrown in there as well

[bubbhasdance]

Sounds good. Updated:

 

Week 1: Crot / Stereotype / Squarepusher Plays...

Week 2: Feed Me Weird Things / Port Rhombus

Week 3: Big Loada / Burningn'n Tree

Week 4: Hard Normal Daddy / Vic Acid

Week 5: Music Is Rotted One Note / Maximum Priest

Week 6: Budakhan Mindphone

Week 7: Go Plastic / Do You Know Squarepusher?

Week 8: Ultravisitor / Square Window / Venus No. 17

Week 9: Hello Everything / Welcome to Europe / Vacuum Tracks

Week 10: Just A Souvenir / Numbers Lucent

 

I don't mean to take your place Superstix, you are still the head of this

[beerwolf]

Yeah, well even a Squarepusher novice like myself has Venus 17.

 

That fucking blows most stuff out the stratosphere.

 

I don't want to go on about it for the millionth time but those tracks he made for Warp20, the old school ones. He just release that like that on a 12" in the same vein as Venus 17. Then its done and dusted and we can all get on with our lives. LoL

[Caretstik]

What about Selection Sixteen?

[Stock]

Like beerwolf, I am a kind of a squarepusher novice...But I really like what I heard (JAS, Ultravisitor, some other tracks) and I'm currently digging his discography and well you had a super super idea here !

 

It has already been said (dunno if my grammar is correct but who cares) but I find the bubbhasdance's list more complete than the Superstix one.

 

I'm glad you had this idea ! And of course I'll take part to this big journey !

Very looking forward to your thoughts about each album :)

[superstix]

How did I miss Big Loada?? Anyway, nice work Bubba! Wasn't sure if you guys wanted to get that in depth but let's do it!!! I have some loose ends to find/buy.

 

Here is an updated list with Buzz Caner and Selection Sixteen put back in. Feel free to edit more / rearrange! Kind of winging it so some things may be out of order.

 

Week 1: Crot / Stereotype / Squarepusher Plays...

Week 2: Feed Me Weird Things / Port Rhombus

Week 3: Big Loada / Hard Normal Daddy

Week 4: Buzz Caner / Burningn'n Tree

Week 5: Vic Acid / Music Is Rotted One Note

Week 6: Maximum Priest / Budakhan Mindphone

Week 7: Selection Sixteen / Go Plastic

Week 8: Do You Know Squarepusher? / Ultravisitor

Week 9: Square Window / Venus No. 17

Week 10: Hello Everything / Welcome to Europe / Vacuum Tracks

Week 11: Just A Souvenir / Numbers Lucent

[markedone]

!

 

I'm liking the updated lists, I like it best giving albums their own week, paired with accompanying ep's

I don't have SP's early early stuff (SP Plays, Buzz Caner, Burning'n), so I would have to fill out my collection or not participate for a bit

[superstix]

I might have moved some EPs away from their related albums trying to even things out. Put them back together if need be

[Retape]

eh. we can drop 'vacuum tracks', I think.

[sneaksta303]

lol ^^^

 

Yeah I'm in.

[Retape]

we could also drop port rhombus EP and listen to the US version of big loada (it's the one I have, and I bet most other people).

[Friendly Foil]

What about the Solo Electric Bass album?

[Retape]

yeah, we need that one. I love it.

[bubbhasdance]

How did I forget to put in S16 and Buzz Caner? lol

 

Liking your list Superstix, collabing is what makes WATMM great I'm in support of this one, if others don't like that the EPs don't group with the accompanying LP, we can always change, of course!

 

Just listening to the suggestions (US Big Loada and addition of SEB1):

 

Week 1: Crot / Stereotype / Squarepusher Plays...

Week 2: Feed Me Weird Things
