But that was still OK compared to Squarepusher. Anything is OK compared to that guy. I did only catch the end of his set admittedly but he was well off on one. I have never seen anyone wank so furiously over an effects machine (soz guys, I'm not really in the know when it comes to all these fancy cross-fade-modulator-squeeze'n'pinch-boxette-anhilator names).
I don't know much about them either, but that is no excuse. Did you even see what he was doing? I am a fan and didn't enjoy the live songs as much either , but its far from wanking into machines. Oddly enough wanking must be what you should stick to watching cuz the "your local four-piece banging out Orb" and Squarepusher have one thing in common.. they play actual musical instruments (something oft forgotten). He is a brash lil toad tho'
The biggest the hit this year ('scuze the pun) is definitely NO2. I don't know if the phenomena has sprung up elsewhere yet
Yeah, it was only invented in 2002 and the government held this complex compound's secrets high in the caverns of Cheyanne Mountain..... that is until you single handedly unearthed it for the world to enjoy.
