Ufabulum the new album from Squarepusher is out next month on the 14th/15th May, and what is it going to be like is the question. Well, to give a hint, Warp Records have released a promo for the track “Dark Steering”, which Tom Jenkinson explains was inspired by his nightmares:

“For a while I had apocalyptic nightmares about trails of nuclear missiles in the night sky. So I aimed to recreate that strange combination of exhilaration, terror and sadness both visually and emotionally through this piece. It lead to the idea of a spacecraft leaving earth at vast speed to escape, but oddly the music also made me think of it flying through a library. So I generated the visual aspect such that, as the piece progresses, it seems as if the viewer is ever accelerating through massive corridors of books.”
