This might seem a bit unnecessary to say, though it
does tie into the discussion. Squarepusher is the only
big idm artist that I feel worthy of the extreme hype
he gets. You know, the big name Warp artists? The
people I can actually find in a Borders Music Store...
ae, afx, boc. They are great, but I don't really
understand the hype, as they say. Certainly, valid
points have been made about too much focus being
placed on too few artist, and I generally agree,
however, Squarepusher is [and I've felt this for over
three years now] by far the most in touch with what I
care to hear in music. I feel I am fairly diverse,
but I often even feel guilty that I hold one musician
so much higher than any other musician. I just feel
strange that the most mainstream of the genre I listen
to appeals to me more than the slew of "smaller"
releases I've had the pleasure of hearing.
I guess what I am trying to say is that I will want to
hear anything related to the man's music that I can
get my hands on. The live set, while it may seem
unnecessary, will appeal to me in a manner apart from
something new he will release. The way I see it, I'll
be getting both together. And I can't imagine the
price will be too inflated.
