An enigmatic experimental combo comprised of artists aligned with the San Francisco-based Magnetic Records imprint, Dent was led primarily by label co-owner Jonathan Segel, best known for his work in Camper Van Beethoven. Recording with an ever-changing lineup of pseudonymously named performers, Dent debuted in 1995 with Stimmung; Verstarker followed in 1997. ~ Jason Ankeny, Rovi
