We bring intriguing news from Tom Jenkinson, aka Squarepusher<\/strong>, who has announced a new album release.<\/p>\n

It is described on Bleep.com<\/a><\/strong>, as \u201ca riot of onyx-hard, hyperfast riffs, fiendish orchestral themes and handbrake turns through varieties of progressive, ambient, electronic and experimental music.\u201d This quote, presumably from the press release, reflects the thoughts on an album whose title is German for \u2018chamber concert\u2019, and harks back to the Kammermusik<\/em> series of compositions published by Hindemith in the 1920s.<\/p>\n

The headline piece from Kammerkonzert<\/em> is K2<\/em>, where virtuosic bass work is set against a laid back electro beat that nonetheless contains a great deal of suppressed energy, like a coiled spring. This is the track whose intentions are described as \u201cthe liquid fusion of Weather Report in their Body Electric phase\u201d.<\/p>\n

It is certainly a striking piece of music, with a rigorous construction and severity reflecting the album title, but also with plenty of room for movement, as the increasingly fractious percussion shows.<\/p>\n

Kammermusik<\/em> will be released on 10 April 2026 on Warp Records<\/strong> \u2013 and you can listen to K2<\/em>, along with further releases from the album when announced, at the Squarepusher Bandcamp page below:<\/p>\n
