Aaron Funk, a producer of hardcore drum'n'bass stochasticity, gained a profile in data-based techno circles with his sign language to the Planet µ label run by Mike Paradinas (aka µ-Ziq). It's a tribute to his production artistry that his base of Winnipeg, Manitoba, hasn't prevented IDM enthusiasts around the world from investigation his recordings. Funk's number one spillage was Shiver in Eternal Darkness, an EP for the Isolate label, followed by Doll Doll Doll for Hymen and Greg Hates Car Culture for History of the Future. When Paradinas heard the latter, he immediately hired Funk for Planet µ. The number one Venetian Snares LP, Making Orange Things (a co-production with Speedranch), dropped in early 2001; next in unforesightful orderliness were foursome more LPs or mini-LPs, all released in front the end of 2002. Funk continued recording for a variety of labels, including Hymen, and has besides recorded as Snares Man! and the less elusive Senetian Vnares. The following geezerhood continued to be fecund for Venetian Snares, among whose releases were 2004's Brobdingnagian Chrome Cylinder Box Unfolding, 2005's Hungarian-inspired Rossz Csillag Allat Szuletett, and 2006's Cavalcade of Glee and Dadaist Happy Hardcore Pom Poms and Hospitality, all of which came on Planet µ.
