Often abbreviated to "Vsnares" – Funk's distinctive style reflects unconventional time signatures and extremely rapid and erratic rhythms. Unpredictable and stimulating, the effect is intense.
Funk's first release was "Greg Hates Car Culture", an EP for the History Of The Future Label, followed by "Salt" for Zhark and "Fuck Canada // Fuck America" with Stunt Rock for CLFST. When Mike Paradinas heard "Greg Hates Car Culture", he immediately signed Funk for Planet µ. Prior to this, he self-released material on cassette tape as early as 1992.
The first Venetian Snares LP on Planet µ "Making Orange Things" (a co-production with Speedranch), dropped in early 2001; following in short order were 5 more releases, all released before the end of 2002. Funk continued recording for a variety of labels, including Hymen, Addict, and Sublight Records, and has also recorded as snares, Snares Man!, BeeSnares, Ventriloquist Snakes, Puff, Last Step and Senetian Vnares.

Venetian Snares Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Doin' donuts on your drum circle, welcome to Cex world
? Check your cerebellum at the door,
No admittance if you thinkin' you MC SAT Score
B-more, Maryland, we servin' up essential medicine
Bright pink sweatsuits and Timberlands
Women grin when we comin', hungry for what we give to them
And get grounded
All this shoot a gift horse in the mouth shit
Sources even say I'm better than Bentino's album
Check me on the cover, smiling, not scowling
'Cause I know rappers like to pick a figure of Calvin, shouting
Your girl loves my style, talk shit and can't back it up,
Never win a fight, but I've got the Cex stamina
Your girl loves my style, talk shit and can't back it up,
Never win a fight, but I've got the Cex stamina
To handle her, she's ? like an amateur
I've got the G-spot like others got gramaher
And a handlebar moustache
You tough rappers bust fast
But I must laugh cause you got a ziploc nutsack
I see through, see you watchin' TV with your weak crew, how do you expect us to believe you?
All your insults are the same
You're high, we're gay
But you tape Frasier if you play out
On a Thursday, plus I heard your girl say
Your girl loves my style, talk shit and can't back it up,
Never win a fight, but I've got the Cex stamina
Your girl loves my style, talk shit and can't back it up,
Never win a fight, but I've got the Cex stamina
And a camera to document my exploits
Worldwide, I explore different country sex noise
Plus language barriers, areas'll get noise
Drain 'em like the batteries in ? sex toys
? like walking brains when they say I'm one-dimensional
Like my shit better if I kept it inaccessible
So I have to show them the testicles and turn the beat up just a couple more decibels
Singing at the funeral for all you boring pessimists
