It's a testament to his production prowess that his base of Winnipeg, Manitoba, hasn't prevented electronic music enthusiasts around the world from investigating his recordings.

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.

Overall Meaning

The Venetian Snares song "Twirl" is a fast-paced and intense track with heavily distorted and chopped-up sound samples. The opening lyrics, "Have a good time / Oh, you know I will" seem to present a confrontational attitude towards the listener, almost as if to say "I'm going to have a good time whether you like it or not." This sentiment is supported by the aggressive instrumentation and tempo of the track.

The title of the song, "Twirl", along with the rapid, dizzying sounds that make up the track, give the impression of a wild and chaotic dance. The lyrics, while simple, seem to urge the listener to let go and embrace the chaos, to join in the twirling dance and let the music take control.

Overall, "Twirl" seems to be a celebration of the chaotic and unpredictable nature of life, urging the listener to embrace the madness and find joy in the midst of it.
