Venera

Venera is an experimental electronic project rooted in improvisation, encompassing post-industrial and dark ambient textures. Comprising of Korn guitarist James Shaffer (aka Munky) and filmmaker/composer Chris Hunt, the duo additionally collaborated with musicians such as HEALTH and Deantoni Parks on their self-titled 2023 debut. Atlanta-based Hunt first met Shaffer in Los Angeles, where the Korn member resides, while the two were working on recording sessions with singer Xhoana X. They found common ground in their approaches and interests in electronics and experimentation, and they began working on music and sound sculpture together, incorporating granular synthesis, modular synthesizers, drum machines, and effects. The duo also worked with several guests, including L.A.'s HEALTH, the darkwave group VOWWS, Queens of the Stone Age's Alain Johannes, and former Mars Volta member Deantoni Parks, who contributed frenetic free jazz drumming to the track "Disintegration." Venera, the project's first full-length, was issued by Mike Patton's Ipecac Recordings in 2023.
