VENETIAN SNARES - NEW LIVE SHOW

The badman returns to Manchester! February 26th sees a rare visit in the North of England from Aaron Funk, the prolific Canadian DJ and producer best known for his ground-breaking work as Venetian Snares. In terms of legends, they don't come much bigger...Funk has released a total of 22 albums (mostly through Mike Paradinas' pioneering Planet Mu label), 20 singles and has been credited by the late John Peel as the man responsible for re-inventing breakcore. His otherworldly sound is hard to place - spanning dark orchestral, hyper-speed jungle and grating noise and often recorded in unusual time signatures such as 7/4 - furious rhythms that still retain a killer dancefloor edge. This will be the 1st time that Aaron has played live in Manchester...as you will agree, unmissable!

VHS HEAD

There has been a lot of speculation over the identity of VHS head since his first release on Manchester's Skam in 2009. All we know is that he produced one of the albums of 2010 with Trademark Ribbons of Gold, with it's icy spikes of digital glitch and barrage of samples lifted from a collection of video tapes.
