You have created a unique sound which defines Midnight Caine, how important do you think it is to stand out in today's music industry?
I think it is very important to stand out in today's music industry, both in skill and attitude. It´s a great competition out there and it´s really important to show that you are determined and know what you are doing, to be sure about your goals and to be hard working. You really need to be professional in all aspects if you are going to gain any respect for your work. If you believe in what you are doing and if you are true to your work I think you will get there eventually. As long as it´s fun there are no limits really.
It´s sometimes hard to surprise the audience and people in the music business today. At the same time it´s an unlimited creative field of opportunities where almost anything is possible. It´s very exiting.

What are your ambitions for the future of Midnight Caine?
Our ambitions are to gain a larger fanbase and to be full time working musicians. We are also working hard on touring more and visiting more countries. To go on the road and play gigs is really the highlight of our work and that´s where you get rewarded for all your hard work. And as soon as our second album is out we will start working on the next, so it´s an ongoing process for sure.

You can catch Midnight Caine on 16th July 2010 at Pitch Black at The Appleby in Burton on Trent.  So, if you want to see them, you'd better get yourself along as this is the only UK date lined up at the moment, but Fredrik told us "We would love to tour the UK more fully. Maybe we will come back next year for more shows. We strongly believe in our possibilties to increase our popularity in the UK. It´s a really nice place to be so we would be delighted to come back."
