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.

"I've been writing music since I was 14. Before that, I used to create crude songs by splicing together sections of cassette tapes. I also played coronet, French horn and baritone in middle school orchestra. both scenarios were as tedious as they sound. I eventually found my way into formal training in music performance and engineering. It has taken me the better part of 10 years to unlearn the things I was taught."

 

"These days I focus mainly on my family and my graphic art as a means of self-actualization. This is not to say I have given up on music -- the situation is very much the opposite -- I've just chosen to remain at ease with my passion, rather than run myself ragged chasing after "the dream." I still regularly produce, record, perform, tour, do interviews and all of the fun stuff I used to do when I was hell-bent on success -- maybe even more so, only now I accept only the projects I want... It's rather nice."

Suicide Lane was born in Ulm, Germany. In 1999 he moved to New Orleans where he ventured into theatrical sound design and electronic music production. Inspired by a performace of Electrical Spectacle at the Dragon’s Den he bought his first Theremin built by a local TV repair guy. From there, Suicide Lane started accumulating sysnthesis hardware and built a small bedroom studio.

Hurricane Katrina hit New Orleans and destroyed Suicide Lane’s home studio. In 2006 he moved to Atlanta and rebuilt his studio. In 2008 and 2009 Suicide Lane performed all-hardware sets at Cenci and Octane Coffee.

Suicide Lane’s musical inspirations lie somewhere between Berlin School and Detroit style techno. He likes anything from Joy Division to Autechre to Black Sabbath to Jeff Mills to EyeHateGod with a little New Orleans strutting mixed in. Suicide Lane prefers to use Elektron, Jomox, Roland and Moog equipment. He also loves the sound of string synthesizers.
