Venetian Snares
Venetian Snares is the main performing alias of Canadian electronic musician Aaron Funk. Known for making electronic music often in odd numbered time signatures (mostly 7/4), up until 2007, Funk was prolific, releasing as many as eight recordings a year for such record labels as History of the Future, Isolate/DySLeXiC ResPonSe, Addict, Zod, Distort, Sublight, Low-Res, Planet Mu and Hymen. Funk debuted on a record label in 1999 with the EP Greg Hates Car Culture. Prior to this, he self-released material on cassette tape as early as 1992.
The Groove is music.nw’s own measure of renown — not an opinion, a fact computed from the record. It weighs reach (how many people engaged) against acclaim (how highly they rated it), balanced so a handful of votes can’t outshout a lasting favourite.
Computed the NeuraWeb way, across the whole record. The same yardstick for everyone — which is why the little-known can out-Groove the famous in their own corner.
How Venetian Snares moved
Genre belongs to the record, not to the artist. Every album’s Groove is shared out across the genres it actually is — by how the raters tagged it — so nobody is 100% one thing. Stack that by decade and a career draws itself.
