Art & Culture

The critically acclaimed producer is set to embark on a worldwide tour this Friday which kicks off in Berlin.

The new video for his track titled "Terminal Slam" premiered in Japan's Shibuya Square in Tokyo at 00:00, the video which was produced alongside longstanding collaborator Daito Manabe is an audiovisual assault on the senses. It manipulates endless screens and flickering lights in abstract fashion, a visual accompaniment to the fast paced, intricate electronic programming which has been a prolific feature of Squarepusher's music for many years. 

The video is now streaming online and can be seen below:

Daito Manabe describes his visual construct as follows:

“The concept began with the idea of ​​implementing the near future, not the distant future, using modern technology. In the near future, It would be exciting to be able to rewrite ads as freely as is depicted in this music video while wearing such a device and wandering around the city.”

The track is taken from the new Squarepusher album "Be Up A Hello" which was released on Friday. A full list of tour dates can be seen below:
