Aaron Funk, born on January 11, 1975 in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada, is a producer of electronic music known as Venetian Snares. His distinctive style incorporates unconventional time signatures and rapid rhythms, creating intense and stimulating tracks. He gained recognition in experimental techno circles through his signing with the Planet Mu label run by Mike Paradinas. Funk's critically acclaimed work has been praised by influential figures like John Peel.

Funk's musical journey began with his first release, an EP for the History Of The Future Label. He went on to release music for labels such as Zhark and CLFST alongside Stunt Rock. When Mike Paradinas discovered Greg Hates Car Culture, he wasted no time in signing Funk to Planet Mu. In early 2001, the first Venetian Snares LP on Planet Mu was released as a collaboration with Speedranch. This was followed by five more releases before the end of 2002.

Throughout his career, Funk has continued to record for various labels including Hymen, Addict, and Sublight Records. In addition to his work as Venetian Snares, he has also recorded under different aliases such as Snares Man!, BeeSnares, Snares and Senetian Vnares.

Venetian Snares and Daniel Lanois' self titled release. Available here on Indie Exclusive Magenta Colored LP, Standard LP and CD.

No collaboration is unlikely when the end goals are the same. A meeting of two artists who illustrate different corners of the musical landscape, come together to create a new statement that takes their collective strengths to higher elevations and encompasses new terrains. So it is on the first collaborative journey of Canadian musicians Venetian Snares and Daniel Lanois. What started as mutual respect for one another’s work, led to several years of a creative germination resulting in an eight-track full-length exploration released on Timesig / Planet Mu. The path began in 2014, after Lanois reached out to Venetian Snares (Aaron Funk) as a fan of his work. The project started to take root in Summer of 2016, after Funk hung around Toronto between shows. Taking his gear to Lanois’ studio, the two began to play for the first time together in what would prove to be a formative moment in their creative journey together. Recorded live in a former Buddhist temple-turned-studio in Toronto, Venetian Snares x Daniel Lanois travels to new zones in what Lanois describes as “a body of work driven by exploration”. Like all the best collaborations, it's brought something new out of both musicians. Equipped with their production acuity, they let their natural workflow guide them through uncharted waters. Funk laid the groundwork with drums while Lanois rode the pedal steel, weaving their sounds together in a new sonic tapestry. The two ultimately landed at their destination, their work ready to be shared with those willing to explore.
