Description
Celebrate two decades of a drill ‘n’ bass masterpiece with the definitive ultimate edition.
Widely regarded as one of Tom Jenkinson’s crowning achievements under his Squarepusher moniker, Ultravisitor is a chaotic, beautiful, and boundary-pushing collision of live instrumentation and terrifyingly complex digital DSP audio manipulation. Originally released in 2004, the album remains a towering monument in the electronic music landscape.
Seamlessly blending studio wizardry with raw live performance recordings, Ultravisitor blurs the lines between hyper-kinetic drum ‘n’ bass, acid techno, jazz fusion, and avant-garde classical composition. From the blistering, face-melting breakbeats of the title track "Ultravisitor" to the jaw-dropping acoustic classical guitar solo "Andrei," the album showcases Jenkinson’s unique dual identity as both a jaw-dropping virtuoso bass player and a pioneering electronic programmer.
To celebrate its 20th Anniversary, this legendary album has been meticulously remastered and expanded. This highly collectible Japanese domestic edition box set (WARPLP117RXBR) spreads the sonic madness across a premium 3LP vinyl configuration to maximize audio fidelity. Housed in a deluxe sleeve, it comes complete with the traditional Japanese OBI strip, Japanese text commentary, and a gorgeous, rare 16-page art booklet.
