Real name: Ben Ross

Maxwell Powers is a cyborg alter-ego of San Francisco artist, technologist, and Roosevelt Radio front man Ben Ross. Born in 2011 as a bedroom studio side project, Maxwell Powers channelled electropop influences from Depeche Mode to Daft Punk.. Powers’ barebones production style and zero budget music videos blurred the lines between technology and artistry, exploring the complexities of an increasingly digitized human condition.
