Venetian Snares‘ new EP Your Face is due out July 24th via Planet Mu, and today we check out Aaron Funk‘s first offering from the upcoming effort, “Your Face When I Finally“. Funk first turned heads back in 1999 with his Greg Hates Car Culture EP, out on History of the Future, and since then the prolific artist’s gnarly breakcore has earned him a reputation as one of electronic music’s most intriguing players.
This new cut lulls you in with a surreal, dream-like opening, before Funk’s penchant for odd time signatures and off-the-wall samples takes effect. Unleashing a constantly shifting array of glitched rhythms, the musician’s stream of consciousness seemingly operates at hyper-speed in a sonic experience akin to media overload. Funk’s deft ability to compose this madness is evident throughout, though, as he pilots his composition thru wrong turns and death defying breaks with a master’s ease–and a trademark dose of his “punk as fuck” humor.
