Squarepusher, presents Kammerkonzert, a riot of onyx-hard, hyperfast riffs, fiendish orchestral themes and handbrake turns through varieties of progressive, ambient, electronic and experimental music.

Warp Records proudly announces the worldwide release of Kammerkonzert, the groundbreaking new album from visionary electronic artist Squarepusher (Tom Jenkinson). Out now via all digital platforms, this opus redefines the boundaries between IDM, breakcore, and chamber orchestra, delivering a sonic chamber concert that's as intellectually rigorous as it is viscerally thrilling.

Kammerkonzert sees Squarepusher at his most ambitious, conducting the 19-piece Klangforum Wien ensemble alongside his signature bass wizardry and glitchy drum programming. Recorded live in a single take at Vienna's Konzerthaus in 2024, the album captures raw energy: frenetic breakbeats collide with strings, woodwinds, and brass in a hypnotic dance of chaos and precision. Standout tracks like the title opener "Kammerkonzert" erupt with orchestral fury over pulverizing rhythms, while "Arcadia" weaves ethereal melodies into pulsating electronica. It's Squarepusher's boldest statement yet—a chamber music revolution for the digital age.

"Classical music has always been about pushing forms to their limits," says Jenkinson. "With Kammerkonzert, I wanted to drag that spirit into the 21st century, smashing expectations with beats that hit like lightning."

Hailed by early reviewers as "a genre-annihilating triumph" (The Wire) and "Squarepusher's Music for 18 Musicians" (Resident Advisor), the album arrives amid a flurry of live performances, including sold-out shows across Europe. Fans can catch Squarepusher performing Kammerkonzert material with full orchestra at London's Barbican on May 15.
