Cosmo Black

About Me

CosmoBlack.

A melbourne musician, producer and DJ. Never far from his beloved Laptop, he funnels guitars, live drums, vocals, bass, real synths, fake synths, trombones and loops into a computer.

The results, mixed on pirated software and monitored on hard rubbish monitors, are sometimes mixed. But the best tracks are kept.

Original sounds are challenging at first, but after a few listens suddenly make sense.
Party sounds make sense immediately, but are challenging to make original.
Somewhere in the middle you can find Cosmo Black.

Live it's James on Drums and Cosmo on Bass and Keys. It's a lot of left foot, right foot, the body follows.

Original tracks available for download:

Dia De Los Muertos

Remixes:

I want you back - Jackson 5

The Ace of Spades - Motorhead

Love Lock Down - Kanye West
