Bandcamp subscription updates

I set up a li’l paid subscription thing on Bandcamp for anyone interested in directly supporting my creative work. $20/year to get all my past releases, some bonus releases (aiming for 1 a month), and a discount on merch. Maybe more to come.

I’ve been noodling on what to do for this, and I thought it might be fun to re-release some of my older material, including old versions of what has or will become Kid Lightbulbs tracks.

I’m going to start with 2 fun things:

First: The original album where my music project name came from — KID LIGHTBULB. This is ostensibly a very dark trip hop album that I made in 2009-2010. It’s sprawling, atmospheric, slow, and clearly inspired by NIN’s The Downward Spiral. I commissioned some very cool hand-drawn artwork from my friend Tony Hollums back in the day, and I’m happy it’s seeing the light of day.

I may revisit the material at some point — for now, the original version already up and available for supporters of mine.

Second: The original album that eventually became STEP INTO THE OCEAN — my 2016 attempt at an album called BEDTIME RITUALS. It’s basically a truncated version of the 2024 album, with two different songs in the sequence. Also a different (imo worse) mix. But it makes for fun lore. I’ll be uploading this today for subscribers.

Hope you enjoy, and please consider subscribing! https://kidlightbulbs.bandcamp.com/subscribe
