Biography:

R. Garcia began making loud noise with a Japanese drumset, a pair of boom-boxes and a flamenco guitar. Through this ramshackle conglomeration of stuff, he accidentally discovered multi-track recording. The result of his experiments would lead him to record an acoustic punk album before he could even fully tune his instruments.

As a teenager, Garcia’s vision quickly grew beyond the immediate desires for beer, pot, and girls. He founded 9D recordings, a cassette-tape label that was more responsible for audio terrorism than anything else. 9D would later evolve into the critically acclaimed Nophi Recordings — a small boutique label that would grow to share in the fathering of the modern American electronic music movement.

Constantly writing, recording, releasing, and touring along the way, Garcia shows little sign of an easing stride. He currently performs with his band, The Nerd Parade, as a solo musician, periodic contributor to The Future Funk Collective, and a slew of other artistically-themed projects.

His recent return to the left-field of electronic music has afforded him a newly found dedication to the craft, where he has found comfort as both teacher and student in the ways of computer music.
