Captain Ahab

Captain Ahab is an electropop duo based in Los Angeles, California. They refer to their sound, a DIY take on dance music, as ravesploitation. The band is made up of Jonathan Snipes and Jim Merson. A typical Captain Ahab live performance consists of playback of recorded beats from a computer and vigorous singing by both members of the band. While performing, members of Captain Ahab are usually partially undressed, covered in sweat, and constantly forcing themselves into physical contact with members of the audience.

By the end of the 90s he began to grow tired of the straightforward rave sound and began experimenting with new styles. After a brief stint as a Powernoise DJ, Noel turned to Digital Hardcore and Breakcore in order to release his creative urges.

Meow Meow

There are more than one artist who go by the name "Meow Meow." 1) Shortwave radio squeals, Beatles-esque tape loops and healthy doses of analog knob-twiddling all underscore the pure-sugar pop tones of Snow Gas Bones. Meow Meow exists somewhere between Brill Building tradition and grandpa's pre-war 78 rpms played with a broken stylus. With hypnotic visual projections, all members sharing vocal duties and swapping instruments, they've brought their kaleidoscopic live shows up the west coast, down to SXSW and soon to the UK and Japan.

Binary Zero

Does anyone really care about the Bio? Some paragraph that describes the band or artist as genius in the making. All that matters is the music. Listen to the music and figure it out on your terms. Music should speak for itself, it does not need to be led on by words, after all we dont read the music on a CD, we listen to it. Find your energy and use the music. Listen.
