The drummer is Adam Betts. He plays in a phenomenal band called Three Trapped Tigers. Go listen to them right now.

[@bunkbeds3001]

Holy christ, thank you. TTT just blew my brain open and sewed it back together again.

[@ratinthecat2]

Jasper Skydecker No

[@jasper36]

@@ratinthecat2 Ok, but you better be listening to them within 10 minutes or else.

[@thecynth3820]

Jasper Skydecker Can confirm, I waited 11 minutes, and now I’m dead

[@lukeumhoefer]

Blew my mind. thank you man

[@lolo-du7xe]

SQUAREPUSHER MAKES THE MOST BEAUTIFUL MUSIC IN THE WORLD !!! it helps me to advance in music and especially in life, (I am disabled wheelchair) I thank him greatly and hope to meet him one day, I am myself a musician and I never tire of his beautiful music! thank you again tom! I hope he will also listen to my music that I created ... (p.s I also love the acid music of his brother handy alias ceephax!) Extrat of my sound in his homage: @ My favorite music is welcome to europe I listen to it at least 10,000 times and I would listen to it on my deathbed!

[@linghan3260]

listen to aphex twin you might like girl/boy song

[@lambdashiftakadavidheikkil2657]

Tom would be humbled and give you a vinyl of music they think that is better than this because that is how Tom is.

[@Stanley_Streamer]

​@@lambdashiftakadavidheikkil2657 ...correct, but for the young rippers tryna clip up a be hello, you gotta let'm know like we gnosis how Tom is, most important is what Tom is NOT, that is Tom is NOT wrong! Choir dismissed, take us to the plug in, mic check synch'n Titanic on the tech eclectic, SquarePusher's yo fuckin drilled basshead daddy, cuz babies that's how th' fam roll. Fracked or Friction, tales of the madman engineering art in the deep, navigating this novel narrative, we're hear and well aware it's 💯% autobiographical, and that's not even the forward on the Word, Hear, and Be Up. 👊👀❤️‍🔥🤍💨 222

[@Stanley_Streamer]

​@@linghan3260not onna aphex hate mission, but I'm all L🤍ve and mad respect for his lil bro, aka Jega on the Geometry 🔥👁️🔥

[@vincenzhog8347]

Incredible drumming. Also one of my favourite tunes from squarepusher

[@TheKBRT]

+Vincenz Hog Seriously. WHO IS THAT DRUMMER?!

[@DanDanOreo]

+Vincenz Hog who is this drummer?

[@AetherPowered]

+Dandan Oreo probably Alex Thomas

[@adhurkhan]

+AetherPowered The Drummer is Joshua Blackmore

[@AetherPowered]

Oh ok :)

[@bryanl3452]

Drummer is an absolute machine.

[@elhorrendo7026]

My old man loved the jazz fusion of the 70s, weather report etc, esp legendary drummer, Billy Cobham. I saw him live in Adelaide WOAMD. He was in his 70s, but he did a full drum solo set for 1 hr just on his own stage. This reminds me of that era. I can remember hearing jazz fusion in my mum's womb. These guys are every bit as tight, but with crazy drum and bass percussion style and speed muxed in. Love it ❤️

[@licenselessrider4486]

i want to be existentially trapped inside a squarepusher concert for the remainder of my days

[@joonajaakkola3865]

Holy shit... Ever since I heard feed me weird things I sort of dreamed he would play it live one day! Hope they play tunes from hard normal daddy as well

[@Bakiyochi84420]

There is some videos of them, with Coopers World and with Boiler Room Playing E8 Boogie

[@guest1754]

Solid live performance. It blows me away that the original track was created so long ago, it feels much more contemporary.

[@Sleep_lab_studios]

One of the most impressive live shows I’ve been to.

[@jabelsjabels]

One of my biggest regrets in life is missing these guys in Brooklyn in 2017...

[@vincenzhog8347]

I would buy tickets right now, if they'd come to me. Its like a dream of me, having a band perform idm on acoustic instruments, which is more like electronic modus operandi than jazz

[@rancapuoicollective4242]

+Vincenz Hog this is one of his jazziest tracks tho, he has a lot of jazz fusion going on his albums, even electronic ones like Go Plastic.

[@johnnyman37]

If you're anywhere nearby he's playing an amazing festival in Houston in december with Aphex Twin and other dope ass artists

[@user-xc6zw5rc8t]

have you heard of three trapped tigers? because that oughta tickle your dongle

[@mot00rzysta]

yup they're quite similar

[@plunderpunk2]

Jenkinson wrote this when he was 20 (!!!)

[@PP-bs3od]

At the time of viewing this comment, it actually has 20 likes!

[@dialect64]

No words can express how happy watching this made me! Grew up learning the tunes on this album by ear in the 90s on bass, and ALWAYS WANTED TO SEE THIS HAPPEN!

[@whackamole]

I love that this even exists. Add this to the small list of things that makes the pain of life worth doing it.

[@JoshuaPickenpaugh]

So great! Amazing drummer, wow.

[@DerreckPerez]

Wow, I can't even put in words how amazing this sounds.

[@comradecthulhu6052]

Pretty cool to see one of my favorite Squarepusher songs being recreated by squarepusher's own Shobaleader one.

[@florianbodin2767]

My god it is incredible. One of the best tracks ever.

[@tarquinnff3]

I've always loved the drums on this track. Good job.

[@bjrntudsborg-petersen3437]

what what what? a squarepusher band??? just as i lost faith in humanity i find this and can continue to grin stupidly

[@pascaldeshayes5459]

Virtuoso drumming/bass playing!

[@DvjKaa]

Amazing performance

[@joseluisheck5045]

Great musicians, great music, sounds realy great, fine adjusted ensemble. Congrats Sirs.

[@johnnyman37]

CANNOT FUCKING WAIT to see Tom Jenkinson himself play live along with Aphex Twin later in the night. Houston knows how to set these fucking lineups unffffff

[@jakobk5558]

respect to shobaleader one for performing that track sooo good

[@cspalmisano]

Can't stop watching this. Incredible

[@nameloss]

oh god please let there be a new shobaleader album i would also be really into an album that was all like this; shobaleader takes on squarepusher tracks! male pill pt. 13, iambic 9 poetry... it goes on!!!! thank you for this video so so so so good

[@DavidCBrown]

+Julio Del Prado an album of classic squarepusher performed by shobaleader would be perfect

[@blueskycatastrophe505]

[@nameloss]

Blue Sky Catastrophe YUP I KNOW I AM SO STOKED although i forget the release date rn

[@BludgeonedTheory]

Saw them at bangface, and I remember when the first guitar chords struck, it was so sharp and intense! So sick

[@kellyvibert7861]

I absolutely love this.

[@liquidjorge]

pause the video at 4:55....Squarepusher's amp has some Predator's language shit going on. Not human! I knew it!

[@Timie81]

OH GOD ALMIGHTY... that was EXCELLENT... my favorite Squarepusher's tune... you made it so GOOD... you rule guys !

[@SextantMusic]

[@horbagger19]

First off, I spent a week wondering who covered this before I looked it up. Secondly, it's criminal how low his subscriber count is. Fucking stellar work!

[@BaRRicade120]

hoping to catch them this weekend, if they play this I'm going to explode. been one of my favorite tunes for almost a decade now

[@TyroneNoonan]

[@AZ-vv1rf]

Squarepusher is simply the single most underrated artist out there.

one couldnt tell from all the dick riders hes got

[@iconoclast137]

i sincerely hope shobaleader one does a cover of "my red hot car"

[@commerceserverservercommerce]

i don't think they can do something like that go plastic would probably be impossible

[@akmadsen]

@@commerceserverservercommerce Whenever someone says "X would probably be impossible" someone WILL take it as a challenge. Well played. :D

[@commerceserverservercommerce]

Anders K. Madsen lol, i guess they’ll have fun with greenways trajectory then

Ahhh, played that first album to death back in the '90s. I always thought a live version of this track would be possible with a shit hot drummer, which this guy clearly is.
