Cardian Matsu Venetian Snares is one of the first artists I really attached my interests to while I was looking through historically important breakcore artists. While I started with ‘Alien Force’, this is probably the album that’s ended up my favorite.

“Einstein-Rosen Bridge” really stands out the most, as it manages to be infinitely energetic while going to new places at every turn, really showing off how great Aaron is at stitching together drumwork. Favorite track: Einstein-Rosen Bridge.

Jordan Vauvert Du Venetian Snares, vous en avez pour toutes les humeurs de votre vie. Arborant parfois le maquillage du clown blanc (Rössz Csillag Alatt Született), Aaron Funk sait aussi être fidèle à son pseudonyme et créer de la musique purement groovy, comme dans The Chocolate Wheelchair Album. Aaron Funk mélange plein de styles — breakcore mais surtout jungle/reggaecore — pour un résultat résolument fun et ce même dans les instants les plus bruitistes et aliens ("Hand Throw", "Martyr's Tardis"). BAM !! Favorite track: Einstein-Rosen Bridge.

about

Aaron Funk delivers once again for Planet Mu. For those who enjoyed "Higgins Ultra Low Track Glue Funk Hits 1972-2006" - this is the stylistic follow-up - full-on punk-rave jungle breaks with lots and lots of pop attitude in 7/8 (and 5/4). As well as the classic single: "Einstein-Rosen Bridge" with its funk guitar, sci-fi vocals and salsa trumpets, the album is also choc-full (ho) of other delights. Such as the shouty post-punk vocal hooks of "Abomination Street" whose melody is based on the TV theme of a well known & long-running Manchester soap opera, or Too Young - a glitch-hop reworking of the Motley Crue hit. "Hand Throw" - in which a gruff (Belgian) MC shouts out to "Antwerp massive"... or "Epidermis" in which another more tremulous post-punk chanteuse pairs up with spooky drexciyan chords, titanium breaks and a buzzing reese bass. The album concludes with Aaron's most daring deconstruction of the amen break yet - "Herbie Goes Ballistic" with a guest performance from the little VW beetle who cared.
