Squarepusher
Jenkinson was offered a five album record contract with Warp Records in December 1995, which was duly signed, and this led him to defer his studies at Chelsea Art College.
Early in 1996 Richard D. James completed the compilation process for "Feed Me Weird Things" which was made from over 50 tracks that Tom had given him on DAT, which were recorded from late 1994 to 1995. Around the same time Richard and Tom recorded two tracks together, one of which was subsequently edited by Tom and released as "Freeman Hardy & Willis Acid" on the "We Are Reasonable People" compilation album in 1998. Tom's contribution to the other track was reinterpreted and released as "Happy Little Wilberforce" on the "Alt. Frequencies" compilation released on Worm Interface in 1996. 1996 saw Jenkinson starting to be offered gigs both in the UK and in continental Europe.
Tom House (musician)
House wrote hundreds of poems during the two decades before 1997. Of these, three had been included in "The Bicentennial Edition of the Tennessee Anthology of Poetry". From 1982 to 1988, he edited and published the journal "raw bone", which was known for publishing spare, brutal writing. House's first recording to be released was "The Hank Williams Memorial Myth", a spoken-word intro to the 1996 compilation album "Nashville: The Other Side Of The Alley". In 1997, he released his debut album, "The Neighborhood Is Changing", on Checkered Past Records. The album featured multiple members of Lambchop. As of 2012, he had released a total of 13 albums.
