Everybody Needs A 101

I am currently producing albums again (on a 'name your price for the service' basis) for anyone with any style of music. PM me if interested!

Powernap is my primary moniker. I have been making music since 2005 and I mostly focus on the Ambient Techno, IDM, Dark Ambient, Industrial and EBM genres. Some of my larger influences include The Future Sound of London/Amorphous Androgynous, Boards of Canada, Nine Inch Nails, Throbbing Gristle and Telefon Tel Aviv. That said, genres are pretty stupid and I'm probably influenced by something else every single day.

I feel music should have merit and variation to it just as much as it should sound good. I also believe that artists who write bios about their band where they incessantly use egotistical adjectives that don't apply to show the world just how much unwarranted self-importance they have are pretentious dickheads (i.e "x uses nostalgic and wonderfully crafted audio aesthetics to create a cohesive, brilliant soundscape reminiscent of childhood and spoiled milk").

Release support from Tensnake, Horse Meat Disco, Fish Go Deep and others.

Synths, Studios and musical gear of all sorts.  Multi-instrumentalist, lover of world, jazz, electronica, experimentalism, ambient, film, rock, indie, etc.  

INDEPENDENT EXPERIMENTAL ELECTRONIC MUSIC - ANALOG / MODULAR / SYNTHESIS / MINIMAL / SYNTHPOP / TECHNO

All songs/tunes/music at THE CAVE is the result of a small team of song writers operating under the umbrella. The common theme is all about the love of electronic music done by hardware and software synthesizers.

THE CAVE has been around for 15 years in the Electronic music scene and all music is owned by us and our label

In a near future when we know of no separation between humans and machines, when humans extend their mind with nanobots and becoming superhumans, what kind of music will they make?

A superhuman being shaping our minds and movements across the digital universe, the electronic machine made sounds will pass through our veins and cells with the speed of light, making your body move to the sound of our common and expanding universe. We are all entering an age when life is not exclusively biological anymore. The question is how and when we do the transformation. Singularitarians has already started this transcending journey, having recognized that the future is already upon us. Fully materialized in the new millenium we capture,evolve and morph electronic sounds, beats and visuals to generate the full power of singularity. Our sounds matches the evolving digital grid, as do our ever increasing electronic world. One single mind can do so little, billions of minds intertwined with the ever growing processing power of our machines will create our world.

Pioneering our music and graphics into the realms of Singularity puts us onto a journey where it is not obvious who is creating what and generating the ambient electronic beats of the future. Nonbiological intelligence will have access to its own design and will be able to improve itself in an increasingly rapid redesign cycle.  We’ll get to a point where technical and electronic progress will be so fast that unenhanced human intelligence will be unable to follow it.  That will mark the Singularity.
