Vortrack is the latest album by the electronic music artist Squarepusher. The album is a unique blend of experimental electronic music, featuring intricate beats and complex rhythms. The album is a departure from Squarepusher's previous work, exploring new sounds and textures.
The album opens with the title track, "Vortrack," which sets the tone for the rest of the album. It features a driving beat and a complex melody, with layers of sound building on top of each other. The track is a perfect introduction to the album, showcasing Squarepusher's unique style and approach to electronic music.
Throughout the album, Squarepusher explores a variety of styles and sounds. Tracks like "Mekrev Bass" and "Detroit People Mover" feature heavy, distorted basslines and glitchy, stuttering rhythms. Other tracks, like "Speedcrank" and "Terminal Slam," are more melodic and atmospheric, featuring lush pads and ethereal sounds.
‘Be Up A Hello’ sees Tom Jenkinson return to using a bewildering array of vintage analogue and digital hardware, the same equipment that first helped him develop his sound in the early '90s. Something of a 180 degree turn, these synths, effects units and even a Commodore Vic20 are in complete contrast to the tools he used to create 2015’s ‘Damogen Furies’ - cutting edge software that Tom developed over the course of 15 years.
The result is an album of rinsing breakbeat floor fillers, pieces loaded with visceral atmosphere and melody, and darker moments that illustrate Squarepusher’s continuing fascination with finely balanced psychological overload. As such, ‘Be Up A Hello’ gives a nod to the mayhem, joyousness and abandon of the DIY Essex rave scene that was a strong determinant in Tom's work.
