Venetian Snares - Rossz Csillag Alatt Született

wondaboi, Jan 16, 2006

At the first glance this album may seem to be a mixture of incompatible sounds and technics, employed just in order to make breakcore clatter in an even more bizarre, unusual and - when it comes to the classical music - impudent way. But nothing could be as wrong as such claims. Neither violins, nor talking to birds should earn this VS release its credit :) Nor even hungarian title(s) as one might think. What makes this album a work of art is the very feeling it gives, melancholy, a cathartic mood, springing from both extremes: dark, scary sounds, heavy percussion and heartbroken strings. These diversities complement one another in an unpredictible tension, in a sort of dialectics, that should remain unresolved forever.

Aaron Funk is not only a gifted breakcore artist, he is a talented musician, with a perfect sense of harmony and willingness to pursue new terrains of the bliss we call Music..."Rossz Csillag Alatt Született" is a masterpiece.
