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 early releases such as Feed Me Weird Things and Big Loada, to the jazz fusion sounds of Hard Normal Daddy and 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.)

Tom Jenkinson quote: Ultravisitor is my spectacle of beauty and of terror. It is unknowable, and will never be understood by anybody, least of all its creator.
