Happy Holidays from Richmond Synth Collective! The year may be almost over, but we still have a couple things to share with you before the holidays end.

First is our FREE monthly meetup and open mic at The Reveler, on Saturday Dec 27th from 3-5pm.

Second will be the release of our 2nd Annual Demo Compilation, which will be going live on our bandcamp on the 1st of the year and will be available at no cost. This year's comp boasts 33 tracks made by some incredibly talented musicians in the Richmond area. We hope you enjoy!

Last and absolutely not least, we want to express our sincere gratitude to the artists, venues, collaborators, publications, and friends who have been supporting our mission of building community around electronic music. It's been 2 years now since we started running events, and we have been absolutely blown away by the support and enthusiasm we've received. None of this would be happening without you. Thank you!!!

Dec 11th join us at for a showcase all about Music Tracker Software!

Partly educational, and partly entertaining; we have three artists who will be using various tracker programs to perform idm/breakbeats/jungle followed by a lecture on what tracker programs are, and how you can utilize them yourself to create novel compositions.

Unlike traditional music production software, trackers are spreadsheet-like notation programs that allow for precise and discrete controls over sample playback and parameter changes in your tracks. These kinds of programs are unique and can be intimidating to get into, so if you’re curious about how they work or how to best use them, this show is for you!

This show will also feature live reactive visuals courtesy of

What a great weekend!

Between our 2nd showcase at and Sunday Soundtracks courtesy of , this weekend was full of good times, good friends, and even better music!

We are so proud to be a community for everyone who loves synthesis in Richmond. Weekends like this make it clear that we're not just about the music - we're about people from all walks of life coming together to build up and share in something bigger than ourselves alone.

From the bottom of our hearts: thank you for making the effort to come out and be together with us to enjoy it. And thank you to our incredible performers for sharing your art!

Also, a special thanks to Marc Langelier for performing the visuals for Friday's show. These pictures really don't do justice to the wizardry of video synthesis.

Take care, and in the meantime keep an eye out for our upcoming April meetup announcement!
