Winnipeg, Canada (1992 – present)
Aaron Funk, a Canadian producer of widely varying electronic music styles, achieved a reputation in experimental electronic circles upon his signing to Planet Mu (label run by Mike Paradinas, aka µ-Ziq). It’s a testament to his production prowess that his base of Winnipeg, Manitoba, hasn’t prevented IDM enthusiasts around the world from investigating his recordings.
Often abbreviated to “Vsnares” – Funk’s distinctive style reflects unconventional time signatures and extremely rapid and erratic rhythms. Unpredictable and stimulating, the effect is intense.
Funk’s first release was “Greg Hates Car Culture”, an EP for the History Of The Future Label, followed by “Salt for Zhark” and “Fuck Canada // Fuck America” with Stunt Rock for CLFST. When Mike Paradinas heard “Greg Hates Car Culture”, he immediately signed Funk for Planet µ. Prior to this, he self-released material on cassette tape as early as 1992.
The first Venetian Snares LP on Planet µ “Making Orange Things” (a co-production with Speedranch), dropped in early 2001; following in short order were 5 more releases, all released before the end of 2002. Funk continued recording for a variety of labels, including Hymen, Addict, and Sublight Records, and has also recorded as snares, Snares Man!, BeeSnares, Ventriloquist Snakes, Puff, Last Step and Senetian Vnares.

Dance like you're selling Nails is a CHOON. Higgins would be an awesome album without it, but that track alone makes Higgins one of his best releases.

@Leaff: Not a surprising opinion since snares stands apart from most of the breakcore scene. A lot of breakcore artists have a tounge in cheek approach or more of a club-styled 'party' sound. Snares' output it much more artsy and constructed to me. It seems polished in a way nothing else is. The time signatures he uses probably have a lot to do with it since not much of his stuff has conventional beats.

@Leaff: some of his music might be 'fun', but he is rather into darker and more emotional side of breakcore music.

I'm not really a big fan of this guy, to be honest. His music lacks the "fun" that I think should be fundamental to breakcore. I guess he has a few cool tracks, but I just really can't get into him. :/
