I love all the violin/strings and piano he plays on this CD. Although sometimes I want to get straight into the squarepushery stuff.
He is certainly a very talented chap

He plays the sampled violin more like it.
I had to step back as a vsnores hater with this album. I think it's quite good. I hope the next release is crap, so I can begin hatin :)

yes, like for example, samples from an orchestral piece, or indivual samples (multisampled) from each instrument??

Tearing down an artists high regard is fun!
Aaron talks about his sampling of classical pieces in an interview that was linked here a month ago or something. Can't remember the link.
Did you know he's on crack?

In the same article (from WIRE magazine) he also mentions that together with samples, he does play violin on this album himself.

he seems to know how to use a computer so it shouldn't be to hard to record a few violin sounds and do wonders with them..i haven't heard the album though, so i can't say what's the deal here :)

Yep, no need to really play large parts with the violin I guess, rather just record separate notes and compile on the computer. I highly recommend the album, even if you usually don't think much of Snares, it's his best work IMO

May 12th 2005 Dear Diary, I still love Venetian Snares, they are the tops out of all music.
May 13th 2005 Dear Diary, I visited the Xltronic messageboard today, it turns out Venetian Snares is a mendacious wankshot. I will destroy all my records of his.

While I enjoy the album, I do think the bits where melodies are played on synth sounds and synth strings sound cheap and tacky. He should stick to nicking bits from Bartok and other Hungarian composers.
At first I was amazed at the album, but then I realized the good orchestral bits were just taken from other pieces and the breaks aren't that special.

Well he's lying, because even I could recognize bits of Bartok and I don't know much at all about that music.

rossz is very much a venetian snares album so if you like that you will like his other stuff - there really is no difference, its almost as if he was able to take the structure of the music out and then he can add the sounds in there, like a crayon - they are all the same (shape, wrapper, texture) except for the color, i hope that makes sense. if you only like this and not his other stuff, you only like this color and not the others - if that clears it up any.
