Squarepusher - Hello Meow (Live)

[@JayCrisofAOD]

It’s 2024 and this 240p video still slaps.

[@T25de]

Yes 🙌

[@PhillipH-san]

You know it's good when the highest available quality is 240p

[@martinalfonsoiglesias3960]

Phillip Ech neeerrrrrd'h

[@MyStarsYourNight]

God I’m old

[@willbennett8799]

Yes?

[@JayCrisofAOD]

It’s 2022 and this still slaps in 240p quality.

[@Pazaluz]

I forgot about this song for a couple years, glad to rediscover it!! Such a euphoric song! :D

[@TheCSJones]

Slaps literally.

[@Tadesan]

"now Tom, don't smoke in that shirt! I don't want to see holes in your good church shirt! Good luck on your bass recital. Love." -Tom's Mom

[@LaurenULANDA]

I was there in 2005 best gig I ever saw + Luke Vibert, great memories. Squarepusher we love you xxx

[@smaccoll]

I think that the best part of this video comes about 23 seconds in, when he pushes a button so damn definitely to start the sequence. I think it's great how he creates the whole mix, then adds his own little bit into it with his catchy bass line.

[@shadowchasernql]

you could say that he "pushes a square", if you will

[@walterodim82]

@loopback69 as a bass player i'd say its not about being technically challenging to be inspiring. It's about being able to lock in the groove appropriate for the tune and having people feed off of it.

[@gidygidyohyeah]

i love the sounds he gets, proper funky. love the song too, great for partys

[@Gaburinnu]

i saw him live i think 2017 in Finland, the grand joke was that when Squarepusher came to perform, Aphex twin could not come . So we got both

[@kidkathklub]

This album is great, ther're other songs I love like "Welcome to Europe", "Planetarium" and "Rotate Electrolyte".... I love squarepusher, he is a unbelievably talented bassist, great technique, great ideas, visionary....

[@adj789]

I saw him once in a sold out show in Atlanta a few years ago, amazing bass work, he loves those quirky sound effects :D

[@Abyssalmatter]

This track has colourful melodies

[@hedonicmusic]

This is the 8th time I click play to this song, and I'm about to make de 9th. This guy just feels it, that's what's behind a genius, just feeling it and sharing it. music for everybody

[@toffee20]

no one comes close to this guy! not heard this track in years, is so f'ing good!!!

[@Wil_Dsense]

this is extremely expressive and beautiful

[@compassrose8706]

this sounds like citrus fruit splashing into water on a warm summers evening

[@ajaxtaur]

Compass Rose You are very good at imagery.

[@midinerd]

Compass Rose sehr nett! viel zitronen und wasser um mein Sommer ist die Bombe...

[@chrism5909]

I also endorse this statement.

[@Orf]

Sounds like you need to make a music video

[@lupo-femme]

Like supermario sunshine

[@flyingsayon]

Kid A was many years after such kind of music started to exist.

[@CJAnonymous]

At 3:44, he slaps much faster than usual for a few seconds. he said in an interview he uses his thumb & pinky for that. I once saw another bassist down at Sam Ash use it too, but I didn't get to ask him about it.

[@eklectric]

the gig of the decade! i was there last year, after having tried to see him over in belgium for more than 10 years!!! how come he always bailed those gigs anyhow? Well, at least i got a chance to hear him live, and this video's a great souvenir. Thanks forputting it online! chuck

[@mojo3398]

this is completely insane

[@michelelevi3904]

2:58 great bass solo entry, now that's a manual and a digital beast!

[@parallelsuns1]

If cats did awards this would the #1

[@synthoelectro]

I'm not sure I should even put a thumbs up, more like a thumbs down but I see your point, the grammy ppl have their head somewhere else, when real musicians are making music behind closed doors. People like this guy are too good for the mainstream, underground forever!

[@Pike840]

Awesome, unique track! IMO Squarepusher's very best in every element. That messed up experimental noise of his early years was never as refined and/or musical as this. He's grown, and I'm in awe as to how great he's become in just a few years. Respect

[@TTridata]

I personally like his first album

[@toiletfriend420]

+The Industrialism the new stuff is utter trash

[@justin10054]

I've never been under the illusion that the Grammys are somehow relevant to music.

[@AlessandroPelle]

Amazing... And awesome Sabre...

[@shadul]

long time no see .... glad this sound is still alive ;)

[@nomis7791]

he is wicked live!!! saw him nye n seeing him again soon in london, should be MAAAAD!

[@higgypop]

That is good dude!! A nice recomendation there from Mr Tunnellad!

[@dilps]

I knew a kid from high school who looked way too much like this guy...and he was super influenced by him doing that drill'n'bass-idm-jazz-electronic oriented kind of style

[@RomZomCom]

It's also in an AXE/TAG (can't remember) commercial for Indonesia, the Philippines, and Malaysia.

[@myoldreteacher]

Never delete this video! Please...

[@felipov]

he's a great musician.

[@thomasrichard8853]

You're indeed right! His first album was released in 1996.

[@AlexKalicinski]

Most modern electronica artist hail to Aphex Twin, Luke Vibert, and Squarepusher.

[@brn20]

My god, that was so well put I can hardly believe it.

[@TheJP15]

this is hysterical and perfect all mashed together with a little parsley on the side.

[@Glaullian]

he's so cute

[@socalltd]

his music has been around for some time thanks to YT. some time and listening to other tracks. this live bit made me a fan

[@kamakazialex]

Why couldn't this version be on the album!! :P

[@TheAeriusLight]

you have to remember that this was uploaded in 2006, before youtube had HD uploading and only a 100 mb limit, so most stuff had to be in 240p

[@rotesan]

WOW!! so brilliant man!!! This is so Funky!!

[@i--i4933]

this was his entry to japan and he never left

[@bobylushner]

Grooovin thirteen years on 🤗

[@Starfireable]

OMG!! I love it... Thx for uploading

[@Phylopn]

He will don't worry. I saw him yesterday @ Melkweg/Amsterdam it was awesooome.

[@joimekawanakou]

It is very cooooooool!!!!

[@Zatoichihanzo]

i hope squarepusher makes more live perfomances'''

[@mejd16]

Pretty amazing!

[@taoguitar55]

gotta hand it to the guy. plays badass bass and pulling the show off solo. pretty smart move, by not having other bandmates he has eliminated the problem of getting other people to agree to do what he wants to do which can often be a sticking point in groups. dude's a genius. (of course at this point he can probably get people to go along with him. yuk yuk.)

[@MreShoe]

You got that 100%. The people that go to those shitty awards don't know anything about music. The ones that do quickly go in and out.

[@kazoshay]

AMAZING!

[@gawpertron]

This guy can write a cracking melody and bad ass bassline!

[@findhelga]

yes he's one of the greatest bass players around.

[@AmadeuszAndrzej]

beautiful bass work.

[@patricklopes7645]

My favorite song

[@KarlheinzSchelker]

Why did I ever stop listening to this guy?!!!

[@silverwine100]

fantastic

[@bibowski]

This should just be used for the regular video, no need to make another one. It fits his style perfectly.

[@bigavsha]

best track on the new album

[@Tunnellad]

Fan bloody tastic, great stuff......

[@Kostly]

The MAESTRO! ENCORE, ENCORE! I hope Tom keeps his passion for making music for himself and us until he dies. He's not only a phenomonal compositional musician, as you can see he's a bass guitar virtuoso. Also, see his bass work on "Come on my selector". Effing excellent. UBER-RESPECK!

[@Noganrhy]

Just discoverd this...pretty awsome.

[@DarkAndMartyr]

seeing him in sheffield tonight!!!!

[@biffTHIS1]

Thom Yorke is a squarepusher fan! Kid A was a few years after squarepusher too.

[@no9or9]

"This kinda just sounds like the music you'd get in the background of a megadrive game..." Yeah! Sounds great, don't you think? :)

[@Senaroth]

I can't stop staring at my screen in amazement O_o. Definitely going to get 'Hello Everything', on the doble !

[@BLINDTUBEMARES]

Hey, every hair of that guy's beard is wired into a different super-computer that controls a different aspect of the musical output from Tone to Noise Level, you just can't see that

[@sapyor]

ha this elecro my night trip to home! Jenkinson know how :) Best!

[@LyliJ]

no no well youre right. I guess I worded my response badly. What I meant is that his strength is composing, but it's very impressive that he is a phenomenal composer as well as being practically a virtuoso on the bass.

[@FireAndFlames]

The man is a machine.

[@damentag1]

GENIUS

[@WillSellari]

It makes me real happy that at this moment this video has 808k views.

[@zinxderobo]

very well put

[@SusanaWdeE]

I LOVE THIS GUY HE IS LOKOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!! Great !!

[@Cerebralplight]

man love it!

[@emilee0203]

Yeah this song makes me happy too :- )

[@MyStarsYourNight]

amazingness.

[@andrewfernandez105]

Sweet music!

[@holytiamat777]

i love this guy

[@mirrorpiece]

I groove to this shit. I salute him.

[@AlbertoBalsalm1624]

I love organised noise. This makes me smile, jamming with pure electro funk! 380ishBPM?

[@Raccoonov]

He's the fucking Superhero!

[@rodriguespepper]

(come on... I gotta say this... for the fans) Also, THE FUCKING DADDY!

[@garnettk]

Tom! The master of Drill and Bass!

[@zon411]

YES!

[@miaculpa5295]

AHHHHH!!!! nice!!

[@Swillo]

This song reminds me of something that would be in a megaman game. Its excellent.

[@dobrzeizle]

I feel more then Iike it to this tune!

[@Gaburinnu]

is it too much to ask to let me have a dignified death

[@honourhillcann]

saw these at greenman last year, they were fucking incredible. one of the best nights of my life.

[@epcot]

pusher of awesomeness

[@JLaw012]

He is the Logans Run of music. If you do not know what i am talking about go look up the movie Logans Run ;)

[@Sanjuaro]

Excellent Boards of Canada reference if that's what you were trying to accomplish. Also, Squarepusher is fantastic Hello Meow is one of my favorites.

[@Gaburinnu]

whichever year it was, it was the besssssssssssssssst

[@omoterengue]

Awesome !!

[@Libridan]

I'm a huge fan of both...Les is working is bass like no other but he doesn't go electronic ;(..but we have squarepusher for that!! And he goes crazy with is bass with different time signatures...mmm...real candy for me!

[@ronancarty]

Dear operatorx, squarepusher is pure genius on the bass. he is one of the best in world. Just watch the video, watch his finger and hand movement, compare it against other who you deem "soulful music". You obviousy know nothing about making or playing music by your comment.

[@thepezdispenser]

great song

[@Cannybal]

wooten is just playing BASS around , Squarepusher is renewying bass with his sound , and his slap .

[@MattOBrien]

i love it!!!!!!!! - matt o brien
