Kernel32 is the creation of Manchester-born Alex Kearney, an active member of the netlabel community with previous releases on Soulseek, OpenLab and Drift Records and a "mixtape" on op3n.net. Born in 1983, Alex developed an avid interest in electronic music at the age of 14 and upon discovering Music on the Playstation began producing his own music shortly thereafter. Kernel32 is one of Alex's many musical projects, in which he attempts to blend his influences in IDM, ambient, hip hop and world music with real instruments, field recordings, vocals, found sounds and the spacey pads of early 90s Warp Records to create his own blend of organic electronica. In the past he has played alongside such artists as Deaf Center, The Field, Lackluster and Andreas Tilliander at the Lab30 Festival in Augsburg, Germany. Alex is one half of the shamanic/folk/rock/electronica/whatever outfit Captive Crow and his other solo projects include Bannister Boy & Jacques D'or.

An album titled 'A Conveyorbelt Of Broken Dreams'  will be released through Myuzyk towards summer 2008.
