My So-Called Life (Venetian Snares album)
| Untitled | |
|---|---|
My So-Called Life is a breakcore album by Venetian Snares. It is a collection of tracks each made in a matter of days, which Funk considers more of "a collection of short stories than a novel... diary entries." It was the first release on Funk's new record label, Timesig, but was distributed through Planet Mu. The cover artwork entitled "Második Galamb" was painted by Christopher Umana.[1]
