The son of a jazz drummer, Jenkinson grew up listening to greats such as Miles Davis, Charlie Parker and Art Blakey, plus dub pioneers King Tubby and Augustus Pablo. He played bass and drums in high school but was frustrated by the limitations of playing with other musicians. Introduced to electronic music through experimental electro-techno artists such as LFO and Carl Craig as well as the local rave scene, Jenkinson soon began assembling these disparate influences into an amalgam of post-bop, avant-garde and progressive jazz with breakbeat techno, making heavy use of the Amen break.
Conumber E:P and another early EP, as Duke Of Haringey, Alroy Road Tracks (1995, Spymania), were initially disregarded as misplaced perversions of jungle's more obvious compositional principles. However, they found a ready audience in fans of post-acid house experimental listening music. Tracks from these EPs were later compiled onto the album Burningn'n tree.
His first album, Feed Me Weird Things (1996, Rephlex - Richard D. James' label) and from there he progressed to Warp Records for the Port Rhombus EP, classic second album Hard Normal Daddy (1997) and all subsequent releases to date - except, as Chaos A.D., an album of old acid techno tracks, Buzz Caner (1998, Rephlex).
For Music Is Rotted One Note (1998), he stopped using sampled drum breaks and instead multi-tracked himself playing drums, bass, and keyboards. The following year, he released two EPs: Budakhan Mindphone and Maximum Priest, plus album Selection Sixteen.
Go Plastic (summer 2001), marked a change of direction with entirely sampled and synthesized sounds. It includes the closest thing to a hit single Squarepusher had seen, "My Red Hot Car". His subsequent releases, e.g. Do You Know Squarepusher (2003) and Ultravisitor (2004), found him refining his fusion of composition, programming and musicianship.
More recently, Just A Souvenir (2008), with a more rock-influenced sound, was followed by Solo Electric Bass (2009), consisting of live recordings of Jenkinson on the titular instrument.

Squarepusher Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
let me tell you girl that's for sure
i'm gonna give you all i've got
i'm gonna fuck you with my red hot cock
The lyrics to "My Red Hot Car" by Squarepusher are graphic and sexually explicit. The song describes the performer's intention to give his partner everything he has, and to satisfy her completely with his "red hot cock." The language is aggressive and dominates the song, creating a raw, intense energy.
However, beyond the surface level sexual content, the song also explores themes of power, domination, and desire. The use of language and the tone of the song suggest a desire for control and domination, and the repeated chorus of "you scream out for more" creates an image of a partner who is submissive and eager to please. Ultimately, the lyrics of "My Red Hot Car" are an exploration of the complex dynamics of sexual desire and power.

i'm gonna fuck you with my red hot cock
Intercourse with me will be intense and pleasurable beyond measure
