Title:
Meathole
Label:
PLANET MU (UK)
Format:
CD
Price:
$15.00
Catalog #:
ZIQ 099CD
"Canadian Aaron Funk (aka Venetian Snares) has risen from the breakcore underground to become one of the most exciting musicians working in electronic music today.
Meathole
, a follow up to the majorly acclaimed
Rossz Csillag Alatt Szuletett
, is a return to the dark atmospherics of earlier Funk efforts like
Doll Doll Doll
and
Find Candace
. Here Funk eschews the charming melodics and baroque strings of recent works and sinks again into a dark world of murder, devil worship and child abuse. The beats are unrelenting and odd time-signatures and spooky pads are perfectly employed throughout. Another well constructed opus from an artist who can't seem to stop making experimental breakcore and d 'n' b classics."

ZIQ 111CD
"
Rossz Csillag Allat Szuletett
is his 12th studio album and most mature work yet. Inspired by a trip to Hungary while on European tour, Funk found himself on the Kiralyi Palota (Budapest's Royal Palace) imagining himself as a pigeon. This somewhat unlikely scenario was an epiphany for Funk, inspiring some of his most heartfelt work to date. The baroque strings and eastern European melodies were the starting point for these compositions, with Funk's trademark jungle rhythms added only later as accents to increase the intensity. For this record Funk learned the trumpet and electric violin which both feature prominently. It even contains a cover of Rezso Seres' notorious 'Hungarian Suicide Son' aka 'Gloomy Sunday' in its Hungarian title 'Ongyilkos Vasarnap'."

ZIQ 150CD
"The true follow up to last year's Hungarian masterpiece. Consisting of ten tracks written over the last eighteen months, it shows Funk's versatility with form and mastery of his tools. Melody is at the fore recalling the 2004 release
Huge Chrome Cylinder Box Unfolding
, but the rhythms are still jackhammer heavy and wildly fluctuating."

ZIQ 180EP
"Venetian Snares, aka Gonk the 8-Legged Viking, is back with yet another record that sounds nothing like Boards of Canada! From the catchy title track opener, which blends demented punk vocals with hyper-complex grooves and gut-gurgling bass blasts, this is something fresh and funky from producer Aaron 'funk' Funk. Not to worry though, the sub-rattling low-end blasts and jackhammering hardcore anthems are still here and in full-effect on tracks like 'Sporto Fucking Sellout Cocksuckerface' and 'Husikam Rave Dojo' that revisit the days of pilled-out candy raving. This is cyberpunk at its finest! Welcome to the interzone! 15-year-old K-heads will love this shit!"
