“modules all from a smoke free, cat free studio”
That number of wires, cats would be a problem. Didn't he make an album about his cats though?
@@SebastianDingleswitch an album named Songs About My Cats
Still unbelievable..
Holy shit. This is mind-blowing
awesome stuff
The Legend
I have sudden urge to yank out all of the wires when his out :D ...awesome sound and setup
InkDropFalls madlad
What synth did you use for the...oh forget it
nice
Nice song, hey, free download? :/
Is this 7/8?
@K I N G T I G E R thanks
@i1z2 no its not, its 13/8
its actually 13/8 or 13/16.
@@Goettel you need to count double tempo btw, it feels like 6.5/8 but double that and its 13/8. So count fast and its 13/8 or 13/16
@@pr00t33 it's 11
Hey mate, just to clarify, in the description on your bandcamp it says all sounds come from the modular. So I'm guessing the machinedrum is just being used for sequencing? What about 101 and the microbrute?
I've ordered my double LP. V exciting.
What a time to be alive that the audience and the artist can be so connected to each other.
All the best
I guess they are also part of the modular system. :)
This is like seeing a mad scientist in a laboratory! I've ALWAYS enjoyed your music. Your music proves that we live in the golden age of music. In no other time can this kind of music exist. As much as I love classical music for it's traditional approach to music, electronic music is only limited by the human imagination. For people who don't understand electronic music, "To boldly go where no one has gone before" is truly what sets this music a part from ALL other genres. Thank you Mr. Funk for all you've accomplished! You truly are a modern day genius!
Yes... The NEW is a very strong element of electronic music.
Why is classical music always viewed as only traditional? there's more than enough avantgarde/modern pieces being made which are more forward thinking that 99% of electronic music (which is a huge sea of lazyness with some gems such as Vsnares).
Deutsche Grammophon and Nonesuch have some decent neo-classical stuff. If I may co-opt your point, every genre is a sea of mostly turds with a few gems shimmering in the lake of brown. Conversely, every genre has compelling and vital music. Dismiss vast swaths of experience at your own peril.
@Drog .NDTrax The (original) Elektron Machinedrum was manufactured between 2001 and 2003. The brains of his setup is sub-20 years old. I'm not sure that that makes a difference to anything or to anyone, just saying...
"Dude can flex a sequencer like nobody's business" should be the takeaway, IMO.
Everything can be hacked and re-purposed. There are countless examples of musicians making an instrument do things "it was not supposed to do". I humbly suggest that imagination--and nothing else--is the limiting factor.
if someone comes with the "lol electronic music is just pressing buttons on a pc lol" send them this.
all their gonna see is a big ass machine with a bunch of knobs on it? I don't think this will successfully prove anything at all. he barely even moves through the whole video.
Ohuroboroz well he had to program everything. but then again people who say "hurr electrnc music ez" wont be smart enough to think about that anyways. :D
yeah that's what I'm saying... don't get me wrong this is fucking awesome but it still looks like a bunch of button pushing!
BUT ITS MORE BUTTONS!!!
Spastmatiker and knobs, never forget the knobs!
If it wasn't for all the various LEDs blinking in time, I would have assumed the audio was just overdubbed on some crazy video. I can't imagine the hours of noise it took to get to this point. Nice work.
How many hours of planning before any attempts as well? Not to mention how much of the piece was written prior to experimenting? Once you at that level you have a bunch of plans already for the sound etc. usually, but nothing is set in stone :) . And then it has to be recorded and thus performed... amazing!
oh im sure it took awhile, but eurorack is a very very fast workflow. even faster than renoise at times. im sure it still took days per patch but it genuinely doesnt take as much time as youd think!
40 yrs of noise in funk's head
Before hearing your music I never cared about electronic at all, oddly enough it was just recalling your moniker/name from an online article that made me seek your music out to hear it for the first time, I was probably 14 or 15 and listened to mostly punk/hardcore/metalcore. The first two songs were the most important: Befriend a Child-Killer, and Fuck Toronto Jungle. I knew when I listened to it that most people wouldn't hear the the greatness in the rhythms. Almost like a frequency that's inaudible.
After hearing you I found Kid-606, and Cex who is from my state/town Baltimore/MD, and then it was Boards of Canada. My favorite album of yours is Born Under A Bad Star. Song "Szamár Madár", amazing. Also, your music breeds creativity and focus. So often I would put it on while I painted. Thank you Mr. Funke, stay breakin'.
You might like Hrvatski aka Keith Fullerton Whitman. Hrvatski was his breakcore stuff but he does a lot of synth stuff
@@followtheciaence Good recommendation : ) Hrvatski gets off-track sometimes, but the good stuff is REAL good
So funny I just checked a video from you yesterday, commenting that I came back in the late 90’s hearing your jam… And here you are :)
When I first encountered 'Snares I was 16, all friends listened to Rock/Metal and so I did too, listened to Hospitality and it changed my life. Music was never the same and never could be the same.
Lifechanging for those with the right (or wrong) type of brain :)
It's times like this where I wish I understood just exactly what all these machines did, but you've made something that's beautiful for the ears.
It'd likely make a looong vid explaining it, tho I bet a few of those machines are doing similar things, just set to diff settings from eachother. I would also like to understand what each machine did... I wonder if you were into synth enough and analyzed the vid enough if you could sus it all out?
Can you mine bitcoins on that?
Okay! How am I just now discovering Venetian Snares?
He cares least about views.
niche genre as well. I'm assuming you had listened to Aphex Twin prior? Aphex is often the gateway to music like this for a lot of ppl from my experience.
@@Goettelyeah, he is sarcastic, condescending AF. I like some of his music, but he seems to be definitely on the spectrum or have some anti-personality disorder.
@@jimmyMNSTR_911this is true
i don't think i fully understand how this is possible.
Yeah that's what attracted me to it in the beginning how did he arrive at this
It is one machine passing voltage to another in a creative fashion.
but what is your electric bill?
He's a jungle/breakcore legend. I think he earns enough to pay his vast electricity bills.
Actually no, look up Thank You For The Consideration by him
who cares :D
Electronic components normally don't require a great amount of electric power. He would've been in a bigger problem if his music required heaters, though.
If your modular rack is worth 30-40k, are you worried about electrical bills?
you woke my cat up.
It's music for cats
Awesome that he got so much analog equipment to sync up with a tracker.
one person is like FUCK THIS, and to that person I say YOUR LIFE IS YOUR PUNISHMENT! wherever you go, no one will notice.
i like the fact you smoke around your equipment.makes the modules more 70s porn grime sounding,instead of hospital sterile.
it doesn't do anything but corrode copper traces and break pots, so i guess if by "70s porn grime" you mean "intermittent signal dropping and unresponsive controls", i guess you're right. tobacco smoke is bad no matter how you use it
Aaron smokes a million cigs a day, it seems to be working OK for him.
Grimy hardware doesn't make grimy sounds.
@@octagonseventynine1253 Special green tobacco ;)
@@dirtfriend "It doesn't do anything"?... Tell that to the brain receiving the nicotine.
Smoke 'em if ya got 'em.
A very natural sounding 11/8 beat.
this is both beautiful and interesting about the artistic approach/exploration!
live album"
I'd be absolutely interested to discuss about that process.
I'm using machines too. modular.
Not comfortable by sampling that and re-assembling it in Live or daw.
I love the live record approach.
Are you working with all patched, without unpatching, only working on a "song" at a time ? letting that all patched during days ? Can I ask you some questions?
+Julien Bayle That last question should really be the first. But yI'm interested, too.
+Julien Bayle Hi! Yes, building the patch over a day or 2 or 3, then recording the song. Then I'd unplug all the cables and start over on a new tune.
real snares write this comment/ its awersome
+vsnares that feeling when you unplug everything is the best.
+Nick Sturtzel actually, I feel that too. Destroying/Building/Destroying... This cycle is so so interesting.
thanks a lot .. this is so stunning .. your music, for me, is by far the most amazing and i'm grateful that you are (so) active
sincerely appreciation ; )
is that fruity loops studio
+Finley Burnett I know that's sarcasm, but the daw seems to be renoise
How does Renoise control a modular setup ???
+ayylmao849 i don't think you know what sarcasm means.
+HRDNCLLDR There's probably a MIDI -> CV interface buried in there somewhere. Also, Aaron mentioned on Facebook that Renoise is just being used as the master clock/recorder.
Renoise can sequence MIDI...
From beginning to end. This album never gets tired! NEVER!
this is so dope.You'll never catch afx or tommy jenks going behind the scene like this....pfffft braindance elitists! ;-) Aaron is a man of the people - thanks bro - Big Respect
11/8 time signature techno FTW!!!
13/8 actually
Daniel Jacobson maybe it changes, but I’m hearing 11/8, not 13/8
How do you know that o:
As someone really listening to a lot of metalcore I never really.. think of a time signature like that. 13 or 11/8.. why? O:
You can feel 5 quarter note pulses but the last quarter note pulse is longer and has 3 eighth notes instead of 2, so you could say it's 5.5/4 but really 11/8.
and is that really water in that water bottle...?
This is the definition of why i enjoy electronic music.unbelievable talent
as much as im hyped for cyberpunk 2077, im only disapointed they didnt feature you in their soundtrack
tru shit.
It literally has a mechanic called "braindance" yet features no braindance music :c
I usually don't like a lot of other vsnares' music but this album is amazing because I'm into intricate, atmospheric sounds like this, hence why I like some of Autechre and Aphex Twin
Also the fact that it's all modular equipment is amazing
Damn those dreamy bleeps at 1:00 are great. This song sent my mind on a journey!
that is so fucking cool
love how the drums sounds like a drum machine but at the same time it has that crazy venetian snares feel with the rolls and unusual fills and stuff
Great to see the wee microbrute in there runnin' the show! :D
I never new more 808 Roland type drum machines would be so effective with breakcore.
Hope you are doing good my friend, life right now seems peak for me at this age. I know I am living in my best moment now but with that is the anxiety of the unknown future..
This album is a triumph. I regret not preordering it. Keeping my eyes peeled for your next release.
God I miss my Machinedrum. Wherever you are, I hope you're getting tickled. My Machinedrum, too.
Nice share, and very insane music. Cheers from Mexico.
I'm hearing 13/8 or 13/16 depending on how you wanna look at it.
Keep doing it Aeron. Brilliant work! When's your next music coming?
2030 if we’re lucky 🥲🥲
Funk stealth ninja'd his way into NORAD , stole W.O.P.R and then made it his bitch.
So happy I "discovered" your work aron. Beautiful representation of life on this planet. Orderly chaos! Thanks Aaron. Super excited to see you in the years to come as I'm only 19 I'm sure you'll drop a few more things before you/me (god forbid) croak. Seriously thanks your shit is deranged in all the best ways.
0:44 I just keep replaying that part... So Eleven-y.
happy to say: I have this on vinyl, and I got the special cd with the outtakes and different versions. exciting time! I want that new speed dealer moms :))
1:28, 1:42
I did some dmt and mao on this one,amazing how you are Aaron my friend.
Saying this just sounds like random clicks is like saying all video game music sounds like bleeps and bloops.
It sounds like old squarepusher music!
Very much this, and i mean this as high praise towards Mr. Funk, as u clearly meant as well
what happens when water is leaking into that room
Ho, I bet your behind you gonna want to protect all that cuz that stuff is EXPENSIVE.
Nay, leave the price. Say, you fixed what is broken, then you probably lost that specific synth patch that probably took years to make and fine tune. Years of hard work, right in the trash.
Although I doubt it is going to be too troubling for someone who already knows what they are doing, but the feeling of losing hard work is definitively bad.
@@necrobynerton7384 do you really think i'm gonna read that text?
i did.
That’s a huge synthesizer you got there
Searched this track cuz i kinda missed it and holy crap i was totally unprepared for this
DEAR LORD LOOK AT THAT EQUPIMENT..
Yeah this is so amazing! Wow, I thought he was an all digital guy haha, so wrong. The vibe is nice and chill even with his sick trippy drums.
Blowing that smoke all over your gear! Bad boy! :) So excellent to come back and see this after absorbing the album for a while. Thanks for making fun music!!
Inspirational on many fronts.
What a great teaser track and video for the new album. I've just pre-ordered. LOVE the artwork too. I'd been looking at old VHS artwork for inspiration for a project recently - similar kinda look.
Look forward to the album release.
Pure & magic, electric perfection, "it's alive, buddy!" :)
Moving house with this would suck
Its the

Midi To Trigger, in the Bottom Left...heavy to see, i was asking myself and now found it...
Clearly there is nothing better to do in Winnipeg
Looks like a server room
... So what's the WiFi password?
UGHHHH FUCK YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH SONIC JOURNEY THROUGH DARKNESS
hot tamale spicy meatball
This is just simply beautiful (song and the visuals).
Looks like he's using an old version of renoise ;
I think 2.5not sure about that
You need to be known by the world, you deserve it! Greetings, Vsnares.
Id'd like to know every module's function in that system
Who the fuck is the one guy giving a thumbs down? I dont understand...
It is the guy, who try to be musician, but when he hears that - he knows. He is fucked. Never will be master. He realized, im stupid : )
mackie 1604 :D good to see that you got ur priorities set
- Boss Level, but if you haven't already please stop smoking, you know how bad it is for you.
This would be perfect as the music of a boss fight in a RPG
Too mellow. More like mining in a glowing mushroom cave to harvest electric chinchilla jelly for xenodata.
I think I like this 11/8 of Aaron's (4/4 + 3/8), which he uses in a bunch of tunes, including Portoghese (Last Step, his dubstep project) and Nutimik, a little more than his standard 7/4.
This is the album I wanted to hear Aaron make, no lie. Can't wait!
That's fucking brilliant!!
Yup, still fucking brilliant
nice 11/8 master! Love&hugs Aaron cheers
I'm pretty sure its 13/8 (double tempo) and not 11/8.
Yooooooo Thats super cool dude yoooooooo
Sublime
How the fuck in the world is this drum sequencing working and how is it in sync??? WHAT? haha
I have medium knowledge in modular and its techniques, doing some music myself but I cant wrap my Head around that sequencing AT ALL lol
blue water too
let's all love Lain
Drunken Boxing as sound.
Okay ... I've been recording and chopping up synth recordings from my dx7 and juno ... how does one go sending cc to analog instruments?
There's MIDI to CV converter :)
I consider Aaron Funk and Richard D. James to be equivalent to Mozart and Beethoven of our times.
VeryNormal SimplePerson composers of the technic future
Otto Von Schirach 8000 BC poster in the background. Nice.
Always an extreme pleasure. Taco flavored kisses for you Aaron!
But what do you do when you want to play a track live? Do you just use the rendered song and mix it up with others or do you really have a note how you connect all cables and take all the gear for a one hour gig?
Very beautiful. Quite fantastic.
you know a guy is fucking talented when he says "fuck the studio, i'll just make the album in my house"
I guess smoking cigarettes is safe for electronics. I always thought it was damaging to them.
Gosto de música eletrônica (chemical brothers, prodigy, kraftwerk, entre outros). Mas pra mim isso é merda das melhores.
THIS is electronic music. Just as every genre has been and will be eventually, the current state of "EDM" (or "IDM" in this case) has completely bastardized the term.
So bad ass.
are you going dawless? that there's a MASSIVE rig. I'd love to know what drum machines/grooveboxes you prefer.
EDIT--
I see the elektron.
