UltravisitorUltravisitor is an album by jazz musician and drum and bass artist Tom Jenkinson, known by his recording alias Squarepusher. It was released March 8th, 2004 by Warp Records. Ultravisitor is a comprehensive compilation of the many musical styles that Jenkinson visited on his previous albums, but with new, previously unreleased material. From the drum and bass and acid techno sounds of his first two albums Feed Me Weird Things and Hard Normal Daddy, to the jazz fusion sounds of Music Is Rotted One Note, or the harsh, abrasive sounds of his more recent releases Go Plastic and Do You Know Squarepusher. A few of the tracks feature layered Spanish guitar, or filtered bass guitar. Many of the tracks have the sounds of a crowd cheering during quieter moments in the songs, blurring the line between studio and live recordings (some of the crowd noises may have been recorded during his 2001 tour.)
