Making Orange Things

by Venetian Snares & Speedranch

supported by

sufishams This... is something unspeakable. While it may very well have set a new standard for what I call hardcore, it scares me that I have enjoyed it more than a little. An album for misanthropic sadomasochists. Favorite track: We Hate Russell

George Graphy This album is dumb, and very fun. The loudness of the album is extreme on purpose. The sudden appearance of completely unexpected pop music is also pretty funny. Favorite track: We Hate Russell.

about

Ears pounding. Brain frying. Memory blanking. This. Hurts. Bad! Without doubt, the collaboration between Speedranch and Venetian Snares is the most violent, aggressive and loudest album to see the light in modern day 2001.

Making Orange Things is completely composed and constructed by swapping samples back and forth over ICQ, as Speedranch lives in England and Vsnares in Canada. The result isn't any less devastating. Imagine Atari Teenage Riot. Imagine Merzbow. Now imagine Merzbow doing Atari, or vice versa. Now play a bit with the pitch, making it faster! faster! FASTER!. OK, you seem to be getting close to Making Orange Things.

Ranging between fucked up digital breakbeats ("Cheatin", "We Hate Russell") to noisier stuff ("Pay Me For Sex", "Tushe Love") to pure tekno/gabber ("Unborn Baby") this is seriously demented stuff, at times approaching Dave Rodger's Delta9 project but with more variation added. Vocals and samples are inspired by Jerry Springer, the artwork is very orange indeed and if you want to piss off your neighbours this is the album you MUST have.
