We can always count on Aaron Funk to punish us at least once a year. If you're not familiar with Venetian Snares, it's time for you to open up that hole and crawl out. Seriously. Winnipeg (Canada) based Funk is a prolific champion of the edgiest of genres - from modern-classical orchestral arrangements violated with breakcore to noisy IDM sprinkled with clicks and cuts. Among the collection of labels, he has managed to span some of my favorites - Zod, Distort, Sublig... MORE

2007 felt like a dry spell in the breakcore arena. There were a handful of impressive albums in similar genres like IDM, glitch, 8-bit etc., but very little breakcore. (The big exception of course being the Welcome To Bayshore EP on Teen Suicide Records.) It looks like the break is over, with fresh releases from Venetian Snares and KODA leading the way. KODA, head of 45Amp Records in Oakland, California and veteran jungle producer, just released a new EP of ragga-ju... MORE

From the 2005 album Rossz Csillag Alatt Született, Öngyilkos Vasárnap is, essentially, a cover of the infamous "hungarian suicide song" based around samples of Billie Holiday's version (Gloomy Sunday) - but leaving out the third stanza added by Holiday's producers, which was meant to soften the song's imagery by claiming that it was all "just a dream".
The original song was composed by Hungarian pianist, Rezső Seress, after he broke up with his girlfriend in 1933. By the ... MORE

This is V. Snares Children's Limbo from his classic label "Find Candace."
This is a personal favorite of mine - an oldie but goodie.
I tweaked and equalized the track a bit for your listening pleasure.

Ok... this is a very brutal song from one of the two very brutal albums. (Doll Doll Doll, Find Candace) If you have seen the music video for this than you know how disturbing this song is. If not then listen to it. Short, loud, 'nail' snare sounds fill the beginning to start the disturbing trip and a really paranoid, worried feel. There is a break in the middle of quiet, but off-tone sounds keep the search going and finally all the sounds come together but the 'nail' s... MORE
