Carbinax is the result of X ( let’s just leave it at “a LOT” ) number of years learning, striving, pulling all-nighters, , when most normal, sane people were fast asleep.
Some influences that have helped to shape, or even almost overwrite Carbinax DNA along the way, have been Kraftwerk, Hot Butter, Jean Michel Jarre, Vangelis, Depeche Mode, Howard Jones, Thomas Dolby, The Art Of Noise, House, Acid House, Leftfield, Massive Attack, Detroit Techno ( in particular Juan Atkins, Derrick May, Kevin Saunderson, Carl Craig, and Blake Baxter ), Aphex Twin, and Boards Of Canada.

Carbinax has been a man on a mission, obsessed with finding the secret chords, the elusive beats, and the exact ingredients and blueprints necessary to make electronic music that is sublime, experimental, meaningful and melodically memorable.

Another alias I use is Cult48. It’s been said by some that it’s the closest thing to Boards of Canada since Boards of Canada themselves. Not my opinion, but I’ll take it.

No stone is left unturned, no high or low left unhunted, no cliche with a “searching” theme left unused, to reach  my sound.

And speaking of that sound, if you’re interested in the equipment I use, You can find a lot of it Here , although some things I use must remain a mystery.

For the music, be sure to check the discography page HERE. Clicking any of the cover images will take you off to the relevant  Bandcamp page.

From 2002 to 2016 ( roughly), Carbinax was known as 2ndMOUSE, after the Christopher Walken speech in the movie “Catch Me If You Can”. 

The name was changed for many reasons, such as it sounding amateur, being somehow linked to other celebrity marsupials , “the second mouse gets the cheese” references, which 2ndMOUSE was never about, and generally just growing out of the name after using it for about 14 years.

The name Carbinax was created to be unique. As the music of Carbinax is a unique artwork, then also, a unique word had to be created as the Frame. Hopefully, given time, it will be potent enough to convey it’s own meaning. 

To this end I will either succeed , or die trying.
