Discover 3 quirky releases with free Bandcamp download codes from independent artists and labels.
9 track album This first compilation album contains some of my more quirky and playful tracks. These have been taken from previous self releases and releases on Syngate Records which closed in March 2026. I do not plan to re-issue any of the Syngate albums in their full original form, only a few select tracks in a compilation such as this. However they are still available to stream on various platforms for those interested.
Created in 1995 as a cassette edition of two (2) copies. Published on September 1, 1995. Worldwide debut on a cassette deck in an apartment in San Francisco's Mission District. Conceived, planned, recorded and mixed in the multi-track home studio of D. Mager Lacey. Contributors: R. Skulback (All), D. Mager Lacey (1-4,6-7), T. Heathman Bates (3). Digital version converted for streaming and download on Bandcamp. Distributed as part of a USB exclusive production at VOD-Fest music festival in 2025. (16 copies)
10 track album All tracks on this album were created by programming synths to play a harmonic pattern or melody but in a generative manner. Some parameters were random which morph, others are semi automated and a few were manually adjusted whilst recording. This is a detour from my usual composed methods by letting the synth just take me where it feels with some control on the brakes just in case it got too wild. Front photograph taken by me. (My Hydra-synth.... I asked a friend what do you think of this for an album cover from my own photo... She said, Dave, that's shit. So I used it just to prove the point it's not AI).
