Venetian Snares - Hospitality

its been released on bleep, and is up on oink. surely it'll
make its way around the internet in time.
i dont know who'll like this ep. on my first listen it
seemed ok, but just cavalcade leftovers, but after some time
its definetely growing.

I've been resigned to hating Venetian Snares for so long I
sometimes forget that once upon a time I used to buy his
albums.

what I'm missing out on.

The samples sound utterly dull. I had bit of hope during the
first track, but that too just disintergrated into the the
usual mad VSnares nonsense.

he doesnt sound Mad at all anymore. seems like just a
ruse.
His cunning attempt to try and trick us.

I would like to see him experiment more and do a dubstep
album or something completely different that he could
attatch his blinds snares.

Man, this vsnares release is better than hardcore pom poms.
these tracks are a little bit more raw than that last
one...and the samples made me wish it came out first.

wtf is wrong with you vsnares haters. its like getting
pissed off at slayer for making metal records. the dude
does breakcore...not easy listening...or unlistenalbe
autechre rubbish.

I honestly still enjoy some of the earlier albums he's done,
and the new Hungarian-titled work. They had a certain
vibrancy that most of his new pieces lack. All the new
releases, bar that Hungarian one, just seem so predictable,
so churned out.

i like most of his stuff, normally not depending on when it
was released really. cavalcade was a weird one, cos it
really sounded awesome and the tracks were so brilliant and
everything, but there was something flat about the drums,
that really took some getting used to. this ep follows the
style of cavalcade, but it is darker and raw.
if you like snares, or cavalcade, it should be worth
checking out.

'wtf is wrong with you vsnares haters.'
..are you really surprised? this is just another vsnares
release afterall.

Its just boring. Every song sounds the same, and the sounds
aren't interesting. Some people really get into a fast beat.
Some people need something more than that. Its not so much
venetian snares that makes venetian snares haters mad, so
much as all the fanfare for all these really simple tricks
that are used to make it sound complex.

nobody should care about how simple the tricks he uses are,
if you dont like the style he uses then steer clear... you
know what youre going to get when you listen to vsnares most
of the time... I agree with crimsonguard, although the hate
hasnt really entered this thread to its normal degree

Listening to samples:
I like Frictional Nevada.
The Potatoe Orchestra is fucked up.
Shoot Myself is ok.
Duffy's pretty good.
Cabbage is a bit Rossz Csillag meets Huge Box Unfolding,
Hospitality twists too much.

It's all pretty typical Snares, so I guess I'll only buy
this if it's in a sale.

i listen to Snares and just have questions like --
why not some deeper exploration of harmony?
why always 7/8 or 7/4 and not 11/8 or 13/8 or 5/4 or 23/16?
and then i smile
because i just thought of something to do...

The first track starts out really promising... and then it
just turns to shit.

It wouldnt be shit if that was the first time I've heard
vsnares though, it's just that I'm starting to really get
tired of him doing the same shit over and over again. He
really needs to break his stuff down and reinvent himself a
little bit.

Or maybe it's already too late for that :-/

Am I the only person in the world who wants him to keep up
the same pace with the same style?

Would you have preferred it if Aphex stuck to his old analog
style? Or Autechre never progressed beyond Amber?

That's what keeps these guys on the cutting edge, they
reinvent themselves with every release.

I like a bunch of snares, I really loved the Infolepsy EP...
and I think he's got a shitload of talent, but he's done all
he can do with this breakcore stuff.

The melodic intro to Frictional Nevada was great, much more
alive then full then most of his melodies. Then he busts in
with his SAME OLD SAME OLD breakbeat and the thick melody
just dissapears into stupid little beeps... god that just
pissed me off.

I've said it before: I'd like some snares brand hip hop
style beats. I'd just for once like to hear him make a track
with a solid melody that holds it all together.

Oengyilkos Vasarnap is a good example of the type of song he
should explore more.

I definately agree with you here. There are often hints of
him doing something different during an album, but often
he'll just do a load of drilly-beepy-breakey stuff to a
track, no matter how it starts. I also used to find it great
fun to listen to, but the fact his tracks go everywhere and
anywhere doesn't do anything for me anymore, and I'm sick of
those same old breaks.

id like to hear him do something DIFFERENT for once

the first track on this to me harkens to some of the early
mid 90's COIL material for a brief moment it'd be nice to
hear some of these breakcore whatever acts do something
outside of that realm and something with some composure he
makes references to Nurse With Wound in a title off the
Winnipeg album obviously he likes good tunes but what about
his

darius:

dadaism was an cultural/artistic movement that began in
switzerland during world war I. logic and reasoning had
gotten us into a splendid mess of a war and some people
apparently thought that the only thing to do was to reject
traditional culture and embrace the choas of anarchy. with
their art, anyways. nonsensical poetry and meaningless
paintings. not art so much as anti-art. these people has
basically lost faith in their culture and were attempting to
reject it. ironic that they ended up being so influential
in modern art movements such as surrealism and Pop Art.

have to do with it?

I can't wait for the next VSnarepusher release. I heard on
watmm that for this next LP he's programmed a 3/4 size midi
bass to have a different amen slice correspond to each fret,
and while shredding on this has recorded himself doing
Romanian folk jigs through the horizontal plane of a
squelchy sine theremin
