printf<"shiver in eternal darkness/n">; I just bought this yesterday from gemm and today I got a mail saying it had already been posted... so I may get it next week I would like some reviews about this album. you will say, go to vsnares.com or planet mu and look for reviews there... well that would be an option if I only want the good reviews... but here I know I will get bad and good reviews... which will make a richer info for me with this, now I have everything by mr aaron that has been released in cd format |

nezzwerk venetian snares is a bastard child of drum&bass that destroys its parent to see what it's made of, and then builds a creature of its own from the scattered remnants with twisted humor and wicked mastery, injecting a healthy dose of juvenile ferocity and love for chaos and disturbance. this cd is twisted drumn&bass offspring where there's only the name and most common elements left of the genre, the rest is free improvisation where main features are constant change, experimentation and an incredible mix of different sounds. short crashing speedcore passages, dense drill&bass, explosive noisy patterns, sparse strings and short ambient moments make up this release. . |

part 2 minimal "fire is in the devil" with almost beefcake feel of dark emotional strings and sparse cut-up corroded percussion that slowly evolves and speeds up is contrasted by pure driving energy of "suasive chess strategy" with its crushing ferocity of speedcore passages, interrupted by moments of twisted confused ambience. "hours" and "aqap" keep up with the pace, overloading the listener with myriad of changing shapes. straightforward and aggressive approach of "punishing the atoms" is contrasted by dark complex arrangements of "stuck" where constant percussion explores dark passages filled with fading samples, mysterious noises and dislocated strings. what I have noticed on quite a few tracks was a fair amount of somewhat childish attitude - punk-rock and downright trashy. this is something I could easily fall for few years ago, but here it sounds a bit out of place. it seems that the band is afraid to take itself seriously hiding behind intentional funkiness, goofy samples inserted when the atmosphere is starting to get overly serious. composition-wise it could be improved - roughly half of the tracks at times seem to be somewhat awkwardly put together with widest range of sounds scattered at what seems to be completely random fashion, exploring sound manipulations rather than creating a cohesive atmosphere. but at the same time the same variety seems to draw me in and makes me listen to this album again and again. overall this is a very refreshing and interesting cd that is a great example of musicians that are coming from a different background, embracing aggressive abrasive sound, blending techno and noisy elements together; something very promising and definitely recommended to widest audience |

Has anyone else brought up the fact that the newline character is \n ? /n is just silly. |

sorry, my fault, but I just copied and pasted from vsnares.com disco |

...and ordered from soleilmoon. only a giant alien force to get now :D |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
and that is one must have I cant understand why dont they rerelease it... even without the nice package |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
this is okay, but definitely not as good as his later work... it's a lot closer to drum'n'bass beats wise... still the samples are highly entertaining... the star wars song... and "...i'm just waiting to get you right inside my mouth!" |

I would love more opinions thanks |

as long as we're harping on details, printf is a C, not C++ function, so it would be called with normal parenthesis, rather than <>s. |

how is gemm going, she's a nice girl. |

|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
gemm and I didn't work out |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
what does printf mean? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
punishing the atoms is probably the best snares track ever. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
printf just means write/display in computer lingo |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Punishing the Atoms is a fucking stormer of a track. But not his best. There are too many good Snares tracks for there to be a best. |

now I ve got: printf making orange things songs about my cats doll doll doll higgins ultra low track glue funk hits 1972-2006 2370894 a giant alien force... winter in the belly of a snake find candance nymphomatriarch chocolate wheelchair album horse & goat huge chrome cylinder box unfolding |

i know i'm a pedantic programmer, but is the album actually called that? it's syntax is incorrect. should be printf("shiver in eternal darkness\n"); (\n is a newline, no fucking clue what /n is supposed to be, and <> are typically only used for things such as system includes. eh who cares though |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
and ewhat does shiver in eternal darkness as a sentence has to do with all that? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
me being a pedantic? i thought the album was called that. i'm cheap, i've only ever downloaded it :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I cant wait to get it... I really hope it gets home late in the starting week then I will have a snares day I will listen to all the records I have (13) from printf to hccbu I hope my head doesnt explode... or at least that I dont go murdering kids after that |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
judging by every other work by venetian snares that i have heard, i'd say printf is actually pretty weak in comparisson. it happens to be the one i listen to the least of all. hell i even listen to badminton more than printf. its just a poor early representation of what doll doll doll ended up being. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
which is your favourite album by snares? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
can't really say cos each album has some tracks i hate and some i love, but for argument's sake i'll say: 1: doll doll doll 2: WITBOAS 3: higgins 4: nymphomatriarch 5: chocolate wheelchair find candace, 7 sevens, shitfuckers and GHCC would all be up there with them. 7 sevens is my fave release of all, but you said album so i didn't put it in. all the other releases fall below the standard of these ones. but i actually haven't heard HCCBU yet so i can't say where i'd put that |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
all those are great indeed... I love them all I think but my favs are: witboas hccbu doll doll doll |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
only things i need are: GHCC FC//FA (i own one of those 10 white label test pressings though) making orange things moonglow HCCBU horse and goat and a few compilations he's been on oh yeah, and the entire rare tape section of vsnares.com everythin else i have got |

I miss lots since I dont do wax |
||||||||
|

|
|

Nacmat: I ordered it to, still no email confirming they shipped it, did you get one? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yes, but it took them a little time |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ok I'll be patient then, hope they still have it in stock |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
anyway I didnt do it directly with soleilmoon records, I ordered through gemm.com and they were who sent me the email |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I ordered it from soleilmoon |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
so did i but they dont take international credit card orders. bastards.... it's an elusive one for sure |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i did a sh ip route on vsnares. it returned : 0.0.0.0 / 0.0.00 via 127.0.0.1 :'( |

Salt is a really nice track. |

||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
now that were on his albums, which is your favorite (as an album).. It's probably a bit cliche for me to say but I'd have to say HCCBU. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
huggins ultra funk dolls dolls dolls songs about my cats WITBOAS dood i love all his work i just have to be in the right mood and ready to get goin', thats all :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
this is an incredible good album strong and cohesive.. with a great structure int racks... very atmospheric despite being harsh I love it and it has nothing to do with what he does now... I cant understand why people say he always does the same tunes |
