Few figures in British electronic music have remained as restlessly inventive as Tom Jenkinson, the bassist, producer, and one-man band who has recorded as Squarepusher for three decades. Emerging with the debut full-length Feed Me Weird Things, issued by Aphex Twin's Rephlex imprint in 1996, before settling into a long relationship with Warp, Jenkinson has spent his career dismantling and rebuilding his own language - drill 'n' bass, jazz fusion, solo bass guitar, brutalist programming - with each record taking a radically different path from the last.

Issue 138 of Electronic Sound centres on an exclusive interview covering Kammerkonzert, released by Warp in April 2026 - a one-man chamber suite that folds harpsichord, mallet percussion, and orchestral writing into Jenkinson's familiar webs of electronics and dazzling bass playing, positioning the album somewhere entirely new within his catalogue. Elsewhere in the issue: Midge Ure on his first solo release in over a decade, Glenn Gregory of Heaven 17 on his formative influences, plus features on Loraine James, DJ Shadow, Seefeel, Danalogue of The Comet Is Coming, and Detroit techno veteran Alan Oldham in his electro-punk guise as The Black Warhols.

The real draw for collectors, however, is the seven-inch bundled with the magazine. Pressed on white vinyl in a limited edition, it gathers two previously unreleased pieces from Vaclament A, the name Jenkinson gave to a body of sine wave experiments recorded in his shed in 2022. S4 021 D2 is a slowly unfurling tonal pattern, hypnotic and enveloping, cut at 33 rpm to accommodate its ebb and flow across seven minutes; S4 021 B2 is its shadow - oppressive and unnerving, reportedly worked on in complete darkness. Stripped of beats and bass heroics alike, both sides offer a rare glimpse of Squarepusher at his most reduced and exploratory.

A magazine and an artefact in one - two unheard Squarepusher recordings unavailable in any other form. Not to be missed.
