Find on the Mu messageboard http://www.planet-mu.com/ >
Interview in Playboy (Jan 2003 apparently) about the
forthcoming Nymphomatriarch album on Hymen.

Aaron Funk, who has recorded several CDs on the Planet Mu
label as Venetian Snares, is on the verge of a breakthrough
for electronic funk. Together with his girlfriend, Rachael
Kozak (who performs under the alias Hecate), he is at work
on an album created exclusively from samples recorded during
sex. "People I've played it for don't believe it," says
Funk. "They're like, 'No, no, no - you've sampled high hats
there, I know it.' It's essentially alchemy, shaping sex
into a new form." The couple recorded directly to minidisc
during a European tour and captured the sounds of anal and
oral sex, bondage, caning, spanking and microphone
insertion. Funk says, "It's weird to deconstruct the sounds
of sex. It makes you conscious of a lot of stuff you'd
normally ignore. I remember thinking, Shit, like, oh, that
slap will make a good snare drum. Or, Wow, that was a
freakish set of grunts and moans - I want to make that into
a choir later." So far the duo has completed a few songs -
including Hymen Tramp Choir, Pervs and Blood on the Rope -
that play with the genres of breakbeat, ambient and dub. A
full-length CD, Nymphomatriarch, will be released this
spring on Hymen Records. "I like to listen to sex when I'm
having sex," Funk says. Soon you can hear his sex, too.

yeah,
i thought this album was quite a trip to make,in different
cities, different fucked up situations...actually i have no
idea why we even starting recording, but good thing we did.
unfortunately, i was in the hospital when this journalist
needed all the questions answered. i think it was the first
time aaron ever made an album with someone else in his
studio, both of us learned alot making this one... getting
the sub bass was the hardest job, but the hits and snares
were easy...in fact, thats about the only way you could ever
get "diva" sounds out of me..heh... should be cool, and the
packaging will rock.
later-
rachael

I think the most discusting samples I've ever heard are the
shitsounds on coil's "sewage worker's birthday party"
guess they went a bit far with the "turn shit into gold"
thing :)

But when you don't know what it is that you're hearing it
isn't so special. The same thing goes for the vsnares album
I suspect...

'Maldoror's(merzbow+patton)-cherry blossom inferno' has some
sick diarea samples.

drukqs.

what did aphex try to do with drukqs? i think drukqs is
better then anything ive heard from mr funk so far..

Drukqs was trying to be 1/3 breakcore. it fell short 'cos
arron had beaten all that break shit 2 years ago. Check
Venetian snares trax. The last time I saw richard was at a
Venetian snares set and he was humbled.

okey, so aphex basicly listend to venetian and then he
wantde to be like him and thought he would do an album with
exactly 1/3 breakcore and the rest filled with undefined
content. hmm, i guess he failed when he added those piano
type tracks and blew the magic 1/3 ratio.. er? you have a
great insight to the workings of Aphex mind mr JitterDick..

Have you checked 'Satie'? All the pathetic piano pieces from
drukqs don't come close to the emotion. The whole thing of
the 'Piano' in Saties things wasn't the instrument, it's
what notes you don't press not what you do. there is not
any resolve in his structures so it leaves you hanging.
Drukqs piano gave you everything you need. did you want
Richard to elaborate on the drukqs melodies or were you
happy/content with how they were?

no, i have not listend to 'Satie'. heard allot of talk about
him but im not really that a hardcore piano fan. the pieces
on drukqs where quite nice but they where defently not the
best on moments of the album imo, but i was quite content
with them.

what has that got to do with anything? what its to you? are
you getting ready to judge me or what? do you think you are
cooler then the regular idm nerd just because you like
venetian snares more then you like aphex?
