Captain Supernova (C.SN) is a fictional Astronaut created by composer and arranger Eric Borders. The music for C.SN is inspired by Sci-fi Soundtracks, Jazz-Fusion, Prog Rock, and Soul music. The music for C.SN plays as the musical background to the story of the fictional Astronaut traveling through space and sending his message back to Earth.
Eric Borders, born and raised on the westside of Los Angeles, is a keyboardist, producer and composer. He has produced for a wide range of genres and artists. He has shared stages with the likes of Kamasi Washington, Jose James, Jimmy Cliff, The Internet, Stanley Clarke and George Duke to name a few.
He was the founder of the hip-hop, soul, and funk group Balance and the Traveling Sounds. A group of 7 individuals melding Hip-hop, Soul, Funk, and Rock together. They garnered worldwide acclaim after there 2010 release of the “Departure EP”. The group has accumulated over 6 millions views on youtube and has created a worldwide fanbase.
In 2014, Eric moved away from the group experimenting heavily with synthesizers, vocoders, and talkbox. This is when the idea of creating an alter-ego, Captain Supernova was put into place. He released the Captain’s first EP “Visions of the Unknown” a self released album.
In 2016, C.SN released his next EP “The Doors of Perception” off the Los Angeles based label Cold Busted Records. He builds on his stunning musicality and deft stylistic fusions to reveal seven tracks of smooth and uncompromisingly funky jazz-influenced music.
The next move for C.SN is a release with accomplished label Ropeadope Records. The next record “The Voyage Never Ends…“ is C.SN’s grand opus which will be released in Fall of 2019.
