Mercury 82 - Electric Sunset (feat Shred Krueger)

Something between Stranger Things and Dawn FM by The Weeknd: that's what my new EP titled "Billy Summers" sounds like.

Billy Summers is a fascinating recent novel by Stephen King that combines crime and noir themes, coming-of-age story and road trip. Billy, a former Marine sniper, is a killer for hire who only kills really bad people, and he prepares to face his last assignment amidst a thousand vicissitudes, all the while writing a kind of diary of his life. Of course as I was reading I couldn't help but imagine a soundtrack, and it couldn't help but be synthwave.

Each track tells five different aspects of the story, so mystery, wild escapes, love, remembrance, and why not, the beauty of the setting.

I hope the good Stephen King won't be offended if I've coated his story with an 80s patina; the beauty of novels is that you never know what suggestions they may trigger.

Billy Summers

Billy Summers in the Rain

In 1980, the alien Bloopnar crash-landed on Earth with one mission: to save humanity from boring music. Armed with otherworldly knowledge of rhythm, melody, and sound design, he taught musicians how to craft basslines that bent gravity, synths that shimmered like alien skies, and beats as precise as quantum clocks. These secrets sparked the explosion of groundbreaking 80s music, forever changing the sound of the decade.

Source Code is the origin point.
A new sound emerged, sharper, faster, and brighter than anything before. Its patterns spread through clubs, airwaves, and mixtapes, reshaping the decade’s music from the inside out. These are the songs he helped create, as well as the story of his time on Earth, decoded and preserved so the world will never forget where the beat began.

The Oceans Of Venus (feat Stilz)

Powernerd is the alter ego of a viennese producer, focusing on retrofuturistic music with a modern edge.
He prefers to stay anonymous to let the music speak for itself.
The first release of Powernerd was 2016's Nerd Power and since then he has collaborated with many well known artists like Waveshaper,  Neon Nox, Volkor X, LeBrock, Dana Jean Phoenix, Absolute Valentine, Edictum, Call Me Sleeper, MAGNAVOLT, Adieu Aru and others.

While starting in 2016 with classic Synthwave like Dystopia or lending his guitar skills to tracks like Twisted Getaway, Powernerd has shifted his focus towards heavier, midtempo and cyberpunk inspired music like Dark Triads.

Releasing on Aim To Head Records and Lazerdiscs Records.
