Released in 1997, Big Loada is Squarepusher’s fourth release on Warp following his album Hard Normal Daddy, his Vic Acid single, and his Port Rhombus EP. Opening with the style-forming ‘A Journey To Reedham (7am Mix)’ — which he still occasionally plays in his live sets, the EP deploys Jenkinson’s characteristically frenetic drum machines. Apart from this focus on breakbeats, his chiptune influences are much in evidence. While tracks like the chaotic ‘The Body Builder’ evoke associations with apocalyptic video game aesthetics, the fragment-like ‘Jacques Mal Chance (Il N'a Pas de Chance)’ quotes an improvisational jazz theme, and ‘Massif (Stay Strong)’ is a good example for his way with catchy patterns.
