SquarePusher - Go Spastic

[LuxATemporeNostro]

what's the bpm on this track? lol

[LeonardHummer]

@LuxATemporeNostro It's either around 200 or 100 BPM, depending on wich speed he programmed it in.

[TheAydam]

WUUUGGRRAAAHHHHH... fuck ye

[TheRuffWoof]

I totally forgot about that scratching section on this track... this fuckin rules

[superviews]

I always load this or 'the exploding psychology' after I've finished playing on the demo iPads and watch people transfixed for minutes on end

[GwenEams]

Great job on the vid.

Love this tune cranked in my truck, bass cranked.

[earwig17]

This is trippy as fuck. I'm glad it's not in colours...

[shtift79]

Dad is jungleidm... My favorite author! shtift.pdj.ru

[BrothersCinco]

why am i just now seeing this

[earwig17]

@BrothersCinco I was asking myself the same thing

[ARTtimmy]

very simmilar with Aphex . its great .

[ocramancer]

@ARTtimmy so untrue

[aphilby]

@ARTtimmy I use to love love love Aphex Twin and felt like Squarepusher was similar but maybe lacking in the emotional elements, but after really giving Squarepusher a chance, I think I prefer it over AphexTwin. It has a relentless something about it, and I think its better at catching the listener offguard and tossing him around.

[IntravenousWolf]

crazy shit....

[centerofmind]

sick synced action

[StickItUpYrBumGugle]

It's dance music.

[cyclejunkie]

۩ *** Super cool *** ۩

[Blade3176]

cräisy

[cyclejunkie]

@Blade3176 you said it buddy!

[WeirdBrainGoo]

Love the visuals with the song. ^^

[dirtpile26]

IDM is not a subgenre of drum and bass...

[stickmister321]

AAAGH!!! I can't express how much I love this song!!!

[TheMackattakkk]

i thought this was called go plastic?

[jonnyXbrainless]

@TheMackattakkk The album is Go Plastic, the track is called Go! Spastic. Easy mistake to make.

[stickmister321]

@LIGHTRONIX Weird how it haves any.

[InsulaDominus]

It's a mixture between Drum and Bass, Breakcore and IDM.

[priestman0]

@InsulaDominus erm......no its IDM

[flytacos]

what type of music would this be considered??:o

[Gotekki]

@flytacos

Well... teecchhniically I guess you could say its sort of drum and bass- but that doesn't really account for half of it.

[MrLittletomdj]

@flytacos It's IDM (Intelligent Dance Music) or Drill & Bass << the absolute epitome of both! Without question! =)

[MrLittletomdj]

@flytacos p.s. it's NOT breakcore, but IDM is a sub genre of D&B!!

[etb513]

@MrLittletomdj

IDM isn't a subgenre of D&B, it encompasses quite a bit more. But tbh, IDM isn't really even a genre, it's just another name used by labels to try to distinguish certain artists. The styles existed before.

[richardsweb]

@kevindd27

What the hell is your problem what exactly do you have a problem with. KET is lovley spesh with a sheet of LSD so why dont you just go suck on a cofffee bean and listen to the spice girls!!!

[bazaaro21]

none of you know about DiPT. its like DMT, but PURELY AUDITORY

[tkonidis]

witch programm did you use for the video mate? great job !

[fonkyman]

lol lot of you people here dont know wtf you talkin bout,. some drugs will fuck you up physically wether your a healthy person or not,. and some drugs will only hurt people who have like a hart condition or something like that,... just like some drugs will fuck you up mentally wether your health or not,.. but some drugs will only fuck up people who have a weak mind.... so just do your research on it and if you aint sure bout it go see a docter or some dude who knows,....

[TheHexeract]

synths, editing/sampling software. a crazy brain.

[DashFlux]

i havent used this account in so long i cant even find who replied to me lol but w/e here goes: Yes you have your self control over it and whatever but it's obnoxious and annoyinng to spam the fact that you smoke weed or whateverto people who could give any less of a shit like you (person who replied) are currently doing to me (person who doesn't care # 1,000,000,000).

"OMG THIS SONG IS SO GRET ON WEED OR ACID LAWLS"

[culvre]

i'm sorry, but tom jenkinson is the greatest musical genius in history.

[AndersonThompsonJr]

what kind of equipments do you need to make this kind of music?

[Kankerzwijn]

How did anyone made that clip?? Very impressive!!

[Vrzwta]

@Kankerzwijn Using 3d modeling software like maya or cinema4d and some nice mograph like plugins probably.

[liquorstore888888888]

he's a music scientist

[LIGHTRONIX]

believe it or not this song actually has a tempo... tap your foot and it will make the song way better.

[dfairbanks06]

@LIGHTRONIX no shit?

[freebird9]

Not everything but parts of the video are very cool!

[poniezrule83]

my fave from squarepusher

[oldschoolemo93]

Fuck all you people who think they know everything about drugs yet have never done any themselves, you don't know shit. Smoke pot every day.

[skittb89]

@oldschoolemo93 you are so cool

[xXmegaRoryXx]

look there all just drugs some inhance and others just make you feel like "wow" there is nothing wrong with drugs whether its from ketamine to weed or MDMA or any other drugs as long as its controlled its all right ;D

[ackavee1]

if you like this, search for "rubber johnny" it is sick!!

[Tommy3stars]

that was some trippyness for sure..... pull up two youtube videos and have this song in the first one and the pull up : Driving from Vancouver to North Delta, sped up 18x (in HD) on the 2nd one and turn that ones volume down and watch it sync with the go spastic video!!!!!! enjoy

[kamikazewatermelon12]

@Tommy3stars

OH SHIT THANK YOU

[puhatek]

we live in such jilted states of mind.. From a great mind.

My inner spaz is being released! :D

[unkonkrable]

[xDJasixD]

This elastic plastic spastic is fantastic,i like it...

[007angelwings]

omg a waste of time!!!!!

[p4bl0100]

THIS IZ THE SHTIZNIZ MOFOZ

[aquadias]

I would like to see this video without the sound being so compressed, it's like 96 Kbps quality.

[apeskinheart]

There's more ideas in 5 minutes of Squarepusher than I've heard in whole albums by other artists, even careers. The drum programming is insanely brilliant. I can't even begin to imagine how he constructs music like this.

[BloeJackman]

@apeskinheart schedule 1 controlled substances and a natural talent and desire to blow you away with his brain children

[EGI313]

Cool.

[kristel070]

need headphones, couple tabs and a couple hours of free time.

[d3p3ch3mod3]

batshit crazy computer effects even sober... can't imagine the mind fuck it would be on hard drugs since pixley cgi that looks cheap when sober looks so mindblowingly trippy in that state of mind

[culvre]

i literally cannot say enough about this album, and this track especially. the brilliance is beyond my comprehension.

[Psyraq]

>[]

[mizz0012]

Whats with the all the abuse about ketamine?

All i said was that it makes this song epic.

Its Fucking good without it. You won't know what i mean until you start thinking for yourselves and stop listening to the bullshit spread about drugs.

Theres nothing wrong with them. Its all about control.

[TheFishWalking]

meh id rather have bit of mdma or speed over ket tho. :)

[DashFlux]

@mizz0012 Ketamine is an awesome drug for what it can treat BUT it can have addictive properties so i wouldn't be practically inviting people to be using it out of medical reasons.

"Making a song sound better" is hardly enough reason to be risking a growing dependency.

[mizz0012]

@DashFlux What can it treat?

I know its highly addictive, thats why i have a thing called self control which allows me to pick it up and put it down whenever i feel like it, I smoke pot daily though too :)

[UrbanCrunkMovement]

@mizz0012 I can quit any time I want to; famous last words that came back to haunt you - MF DOOM

[voncoolio]

@mizz0012 it's fuckin horse tranquilizer, ruff!

[gunrunner13]

@mizz0012 just smoke pot dude fuck ketamine or roll up on some E if you want a good music enhancer for techno

[191TheLegend191]

@mizz0012

MARIJUANA IS THE WAY FORWARD

ALL THIS SILLY CHEMICAL SHIT IS GONNA KILL US ALL FOR SURE

[drkrhinoc]

@mizz0012 @mizz0012 your a fucking idiot miz drugs destroyer yer body even know it didnt stop me theres alot wrong with Drugs it killed my best friend so i thought twice about saying the same thing you did Grass is just fine dont need hard core.

[Neem0BetweenClouds]

@mizz0012 nothing wrong with drugs? i hope you are joking. A ketamine+lsd trip almost fucked my mind up, I was not scared but it was very hard to control man. And drugs have so many side effects, even in the long term, that I'd seriously warn everyone who wants to try them. Drug is not for everyone, weak people easily get addicted to it and they become no more than a drug using machine who wants more, more, more. An excessive use of many drugs makes you unemotional and causes lots of problems.

[HaxUK]

@Neem0BetweenClouds I agree with this, but mizz0012 did say it's all about control. I don't think mixing ketamine and lsd sounds like a paticularly great Idea but I don't know. I definetly think that long term use is bad, I have seen people, friends change but it is amazing how quickly people can pull it together when they stop taking drugs :)

[squarepushermeg]

@Neem0BetweenClouds true, better be slow and wise with all of that. be sure f who you are and want to be. or it will take over and fuck you up possibly. good friends (who are also in control) is a must i think. dont start too young, it will fuck you up and take you longer to get stuff done, which you will have to do later one way ore another to grow up...

[squarepushermeg]

@squarepushermeg and yeah sqpusher is my musical mentor.. in awe still, after 18 years. still remember when i walked in a shop with a friend, and stopped listening to the conversation.. what was i hearing?? it turned out to be sq pusher. hope he comes to holland more often!!

[Pheest11]

@Neem0BetweenClouds

hold up, you took ketamine and lsd at the same time?? tbh your lucky you didnt have a heart attack, taking downers and stimulants at the same time is the most stupid thing anybody could do, im not surprised you had a nasty trip, dont talk about self-control and then blame if your gonna do something like that

[Pheest11]

@Pheest11 blame the drugs*

[noianiz]

@Pheest11 WHAT? i did k and lsd loads of times, with great results. i have never heard that k and lsd isnt a good mix and is not worse than other things. plus i know for a fat that ketamin dosnt effect the heart rythm, allso why its used on newborn kids and people with weak heart. i know my drugs,. and i never heard anything like that..

[absoftofo]

@Pheest11 sorry, but you're slightly wrong in two regards. One, ketamine isn't a "downer" as in central nervous system depressant. It's a dissociative anesthetic and potential antidepressant. Secondly, LSD isn't a classic stimulant. It's almost exclusively acts on the serotonin recepters in the brain, not the dopamine one's which would put you at risk for a heart attack. That being said, they are both powerful psychoactive drugs, and combining them is potential dangerous for the psyche

[Pheest11]

@absoftofo

oops may have got a couple things twisted :/ was only repeating what they taught us in school - obviously not enough

[leotard9696]

@mizz0012 huh what do you even mean by control. you think your brain can control the effect a neurotoxin has on you? you're helpless if you take it (as in you cant break out of it on your own)

[ninefisher]

@mizz0012 suck dick!

[gurkensexshop]

@mizz0012 i got a theory: idm and ambient sound great when your sober/on dxm/ketamin/pcp and maybe these composers know about this and use this for their musical inspiration. sorry for ma bad english.

like a stereotype you know:

raggea = weed

hardstyle = speed etc.

[joshman94]

@gurkensexshop no thats retarded its nearly impossible to produce while under influence of drugs.

[locustskater]

@joshman94 The guy used to sell acid for god's sake, hence the name Squarepusher -____-. Though,yes, it would be difficult to produce while under the influence that does not necessarily rule out the possibility that he, like countless other artists, uses drugs for artistic INSPIRATION. Either way he's fouken brilliant :D

[gyaagin]

@mizz0012 Ecstasy bores holes in your brain! Ricaurte proved it in a study!

Except for instead of injecting MDMA into monkeys, it was meth.

And instead of injecting reasonable doses, it was the human equivalent of five tabs the size of your fingernail a day for four days straight.

"The short anwer is that science has proven that _moderate_ MDMA use does not cause any lasting harm." - The DEA

[gyaagin]

Of course, MDMA isn't the same as ketamine, but that should give people an example of how absurd some of the things they're told are.

BACK ON TOPIC OF THE VIDEO, I admire Squarepusher's talent, 1:50 is crazy.

[Blayros]

@mizz0012 first loss of control is when you first get the thought of taking them!

[FEMASoKANALIA]

@mizz0012  mean Tune?

[RandyLahey911]

@mizz0012 k is fun

[AlexKalicinski]

@mizz0012

Hahah you cant listen to music if your in the K-hole.

lolllllll

I dont understand why you would trip K and try to listen.

Shit your mostly having trouble composing speech.

Its cat tranq. Why not just eat mush, or chill with lucy?

[RandyLahey911]

@AlexKalicinski

When youre off your nut on K, its hard to speak but music sounds fucking incredible.

[AlexKalicinski]

@RandyLahey911

Ive only blown it down once, it sucked I couldnt move and I was stuck on a stoop in boston.

I heard high freq notes like a buzzing. I couldnt hear shit. Well atleast my brain couldnt make anything of noise.

[RandyLahey911]

@AlexKalicinski Sounds like good shit to me. Try it in a room with your friends and an 8th of it. Loads of fun.

[HappyGuyxlii]

@mizz0012 They can kill even if you use controlled amounts. It's more about how susceptible you are to the effects of them.

[Trippedfellanddied]

@mizz0012 Thanks, Jeremy from Peep Show. You're a fucking idiot.

[1984crusader]

@mizz0012 so what you say is that you can hold control even though it fuck's up your brain on a short and long distance o.O man i wanna see that control of you in 5 years ;)

[TheHexeract]

@mizz0012 Ketamine lowers your aural bandwidth, it literally makes music sound worse. K is for wastoids, not a drug for appreciating or enhancing music.

K heads are the most boring awful people.  I honestly have more respect for heroin junkies.

[Pendor42]

@TheHexeract not that i'm into special K but anything bar organic veg essentially lowers your vibes. why would you want to talk to the fallen angels/watchers anyway?.. also this happens to be quiet possibly the best d+b song i've ever heard an i've never even listened to music on yokes (just not my thing)

[TheHexeract]

@Pendor42

It's the best D&B song you've ever heard, and it's not even D&B, lol, now that's an accomplishment!

[Pendor42]

@TheHexeract what would you call it?

[djaekemusic]

@Pendor42 I'd call it breakcore

[Pendor42]

@djaekemusic aye that seems to be the one alright! i prob liked it so much cause it was something new and different. that other stuff glitch somethin or other. that shits whopper too, venetian snares an all

[shitmandood]

@mizz0012 Are you still alive?

[mootyn]

If you need drugs to enjoy this then you're a fool, ok they help, but music is good enough on its own

[mizz0012]

ketamine makes this song epic

[191TheLegend191]

@mizz0012

FUCK YOUR SILLY HARD DRUGS YOU WASTE

[skankingrhythmics]

It was just a funny comment.

It's so funny that go all caps about that.

[191TheLegend191]

@skankingrhythmics

go all caps? wut, cos i press a key on my keyboard i must be even more furious? stay off the special k and stick to blazin kush

[skankingrhythmics]

let's put it simple cause i'm high...

His comment was just funny and maybe true and you just responded in the lamest way.

And pressing cabs is a way to get attention or a way to show that you are pissed off.

That's common knowledge and you know it.

[191TheLegend191]

respond in the lamest way? i was just showing the crackhead that i dont agree wit hard drugs. oh yeh, and SCRAPE OUT

[mizz0012]

@191TheLegend191 how am i a crackhead if im doing ketamine?

[mrpeanut25]

@mizz0012 ketamine is shit broooo. Keep it green

[iaminsanity00]

@mizz0012 KETAMINEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!! <3

dont listen to the stoners hahhaha

[HammarHeart]

@191TheLegend191 no one gives a shit what drugs you approve of and disapprove of, shut the fuck up.

ugh, drinkers bitch about smokers, smokers bitch about rollers, rollers bitch about crackheads and junkies, and edge people bitch about everyone. how about everyone mind their own goddam business, stfu about other people's habits/choices and stop being judgmental. i dont do ketamine, but im not gonna go up to a guy who does and tell him he needs to quit, because i dont want to act like a cunt.

[191TheLegend191]

@HammarHeart but by scraping into an argument which has nothing to do with you and trying to look like mr. big-bollocks you made yourself look like a cunt. anyways, its bait that i was trollin and you lot fell for it like a bunch of DIPPY K-HEAD BASTARDS

[BaseParkour]

@mizz0012 anything makes this tune epic. but yeah, ket would make this epic beyond sex probably.

[kevindd27]

@mizz0012 no one needs to know and no one is glad for you.

[purpledex8462]
