I love this guy...his music is amazing...wanted to see if there were any other fans out there (not prog, else I would have put this somewhere else.) Tom's a great bassist as well as drummer.

Cool music, but I don't have any albums so I can't choose one, obviously.

I like what I've heard...sometimes he gets carried away with the slap-n-pop, but he's an amazing bassist and the dnb programming is incredible. I'm tempted to say "Go Plastic" is my favorite (definitely the most intense!) but it wears on me a little more than "Feed me.." which is pretty damn good from start to finish.

yeah, I agree, he is a very talented rhythm guy but he can sometimes let it get out of hand.

Hard Normal Daddy is my fave out of those I've heard.

It appealed to me back in the 90's to be honest. Its too hectic and manic for me now. As far as anything electronic goes I'd rather melt to the 'Boards of Canada' or 'Plaid'
Ultimately bored by endless ecstasy!

I went to school with Tom. Didn't know him too well, i was into rock and he
wasn't as can now be seen.
Not too keen on Squarepusher, though i voted for Daddy....

IDM = Intelligent Dance Music...Whatever that is.You can't really dance to it without the fear of being arrested.

Difficult choice between Feed Me..& HN Daddy.Voted for the latter.

I got into him at the same time as I got into Luke Vibert/Vert,Red Snapper and Spring Heel Jack. 1995/96 ish.That was a fantastic period for IDM.Autechre,Plaid/Black Dog,Mouse on Mars and The Staubgold label where all just getting into their stride about then.

Do 'The Stanley' otherwise I'll thrash you with some rhubarb.

I voted Big Loada becasue its sooo crazy and fast. He does very good Jazz, listen to Music Rotted In One Note for this.
Chin Hippy is such a good track on Hard Normal Daddy.
