Tom Jenkinson a.k.a. Squarepusher

Squarepusher, the performing pseudonym of Thomas Jenkinson, is a British electronic music artist (born in Chelmsford, Essex) signed to Warp Records. He specializes in the electronic music genres of Breakcore, Acid, and IDM, albeit with a significant jazz influence.

A trained bass guitar player and drummer, his style of extremely fast, cut-up beats mixed with fusion jazz and interlaced with synth lines and samples has gained him a cult following. He is friends with Richard D. James (Aphex Twin) and his albums have been critically acclaimed for their forward-thinking approach. The music of Squarepusher is sometimes considered extremely difficult to comprehend on the first listen, as his work is so different to the work of most 'normal' musicians.

Jenkinson performs live, playing a fretless bass guitar along with laptop electronics and he has made appearances on BBC Radio 1's Breezeblock show.

His brother, Andy Jenkinson, is also a respected recording artist, under the name Ceephax Acid Crew.
