Quick #BandcampFriday reminder that all albums are 50% off (untl 16th March). @bandcamp.com

Recently turned 50?!? By way of celebration, here's a 50% off code applicable to any or all of my albums to date. That makes each album download a mere £1.50 or just over $2 USD. Just put the following discount code in at the checkout: birthdayblowout50 syntheticvillains.bandcamp.com/music

Had 3 days in London and enjoyed its multicultural, multiracial mix-up. The people were friendly. Got offered directions and seats on the tube, etc. Reform and the fear mongers can do one.

Introducing Hannah Spencer MP 💚

@acerecords.bsky.social acerecords.co.uk/black-americ... Yes! Also chuffed about the Brides of Funkenstein reissues too 😀

RIP Fred Smith of Television — one of the coolest bassists of all time.

It certainly is. I've got 9 instrumental albums ranging from ambient/experimental drone to synth-pop, bits of electro-funk, even a touch of No Wave. But all sounding like the product of one peculiar mind. syntheticvillains.bandcamp.com/music

there’s so much that goes into making art that isn’t about professionalism or money!!!

Funkadelic - You and Your Folks, Me and My Folks Sad news! Billy "Bass" Nelson - Funkadelic bass player - has died. He co-wrote this one. Great bass work. This album was my introduction to the P-Funk universe. #Billy"Bass"Nelson #MusicSky #Funkadelic #FunkSky #Bass youtu.be/6kWMl6wIUqU?...

Hundreds of volunteers hitting the streets this morning in Gorton and Denton. Lower bills, tax the super-rich- hope will win. Only the Greens can stop Reform in this by-election.

Joyeux anniversaire to French composer Éliane Radigue (b.1932) who turns an incredible 94 years of age today! Her work is proof that subtlety can be seismic, and that the smallest shift can change everything. Long live sustained tones, deep attention and Éliane Radigue!

Help us make hope normal again. Join the Green Party now.

Trev’s 2025 Advent Calendar
“A year of great music from great artists” December 7 – Synthetic Villains @syntheticvillains Sci‑fi synth odysseys, retro futurism — soundtracks for alien worlds. syntheticvillains.bandcamp.com/album/smoker...

It's #BandcampFriday I released 2 Radiophonic-esque albums this year, plus there are 7 others including a not your average but still mostly jolly #ChristmasAlbum syntheticvillains.bandcamp.com

As it's December, and I'd noticed there'd been a few more plays of my Xmas album, I posted a message to my Bandcamp followers about it. Immediately lost 2 followers. Anyway, let's see if the same happens on here: syntheticvillains.bandcamp.com/album/christ...

Soft Cell were an equal partnership who, when firing on all cylinders as usual, were unbeatable. You get the best sense of how brilliant Dave Ball was (and Marc too) on the 12" mixes of singles. Some of the greatest records of all time. Memorabilia goes hard as hell. youtu.be/vnTiNH5Oii8?...

RIP Anthony Jackson. Absolute master bass player. youtu.be/qxW789jHXII?...

I've written about first wave instrumental surf music, how it was like kindergarten for teen bands that did other genres later, and its catalyst-like effect on subsequent rock. It's in the latest Shindig! Magazine.

Much cheaper than Kraftwerk tickets. Support your local Horrordwarf. hdrf.bandcamp.com/album/wire-a...
