Having performed as DDT, formed in 1989 by former Šarlo Akrobata member Ivan Vdović "VD" (drums, rhythm machine), with Srđan Marković "Đile" (vocals) and Miodrag Stojanović "Čeza" (rhythm machine), the band changed the name to Supernaut, after Vdović's death in 1992.

The debut studio album, Budućnost sada (The Future Now), released in 1993 by the independent record label Zvono Records, featured an experimental form of industrial rock, crossed with diverse musical influences, including the 1960s acid rock acts such as the 13th Floor Elevators.

On mid-1997, the band changed the lineup which, beside Marković (guitar, vocals) and Radić (bass), featured Svetolik Trifunović "Trile" (rhythm machine).

[9] After the album release, the band went on hiatus, reactivating in 2005, in the lineup Srđan Marković (vocals, guitar, sequencing) and Saša Radić (bass, rhythm machine).

[11] Promotional videos were recorded for the tracks "Šifra" ("Password") and "Oh mili (Neupokojeni)" ("Oh, Dear Ones (The Undead)"), both directed by Joca Backulja.

[19] Also, bassist Radić announced that the band was looking for the original tapes from the first three albums, available only on compact cassette, in order to rerelease them on CD.

[21] The album featured two previously released songs, "Đavo pod maskom" ("Devil in Disguise"), originally recorded and released in 1987 on the various artists compilation Beogradski grafiti - Bad Boy Rock (Belgrade Graffiti - Bad Boy Rock) by Marković with his former band Plaćenici, also featuring Partibrejkers guitarist Nebojša Antonijević "Anton" and Miodrag Stojanović "Čeza", and the title track, first released on Live in Zombietown, as well as the cover version of the Roky Erickson track "Nothing In Return", with lyrics in Serbian entitled "Ništa zauzvrat".

In March 1996, the band participated the International Alternative Theatre Festival FIAT, and the following year, at the Novi Sad Spens Sports Center organized the Veče Supernauta (A Supernaut Evening), which featured a rock concert, a theater play, and an art exhibition.

During the same year, the band appeared as performers in the film Geto (Ghetto), starring the Električni Orgazam drummer Goran Čavajda "Čavke".
