« La main » sings in French language dark love stories. No good endings in these songs, only a strange, bitter taste remains. Sounds are definitely synthetic. Life is synthetic.

Influenced by the French 80’s New wave scene, La main seeks the melody.

Karl Kave - Solitude

I spent a big part of my short life with guitars, pedals, synths, drummachines and melancholy. As Karl Kave I feel free to expose my music. As Karl Kave I don’t need to give a shit. Whenever it is possible, the first take is the last. I’m sure there’s some truth in this.
