If van Gogh were alive today and in Holland he would use his good ear to listen to what emanates from Funckarma, one of the leading musicians in electronic advanced music in the Netherlands. Soundscapes reverberate with a wall of melodies and echoes combined with complex crisp beat structures. Cinematic music at it's most evocative." Call it electronic nuttiness that never fails to engage or abrasive, lush, haunting sound; a moving and viscerally intense evidence that Funckarmas music is full of emotion, mechanical, distorted and coming from a dark aesthetic Funckarma material, displays more of "intellectual appeal", requiring a certain barrier of entry to fully get into the music. Trained ears and complete attention is definitely a requirement. sound to them is not a vehicle for there expression but in fact tools, mastered and used to make creations that are them self an inspiration.
