Announcing the new cosmosis CD album on Holophonic Records:
"Fumbling For The Funky Frequency" is scheduled for release 10th July 2009
After releasing his sixth artist album in 2007, the very popular and successful Psychedelica Melodica, Cosmosis has spent the last two years touring it and playing worldwide at parties around the globe, appearing in Brazil, Mexico, Australia, Canada, South Africa, Israel, Russia, the United States, Japan and various countries around Europe.
Cosmosis now returns with a stunning collection of powerful quality tracks in this, the seventh Cosmosis artist album to date.
Taking Psychedelica Melodica as it's starting point, the music on The Funky Frequency continues to explore the new sonic territory created by combining emotive melodic fragmements with trippy, psychedelic layered textures matched up with powerful imperitive dancefloor grooves.
The Funky Frequency also features trademark rubbery Cosmosis bass lines and earthshaking sub bass grooves.
Cosmosis manages to keep the grooves sounding fresh and sophisticated by skilfully blending in syncopated 16th note funk as well as elements from other musical genres. There's also echoes of Cosmosis's Goa roots in the shape of a classic Goa victory tune "The Eternal Now" the album's closing cut, as well as "Beyond The Five Senses" which contain unmistakable fragments of Goa vibe, yet re-interpreted and energized by being re-worked up to monstrously fat modern production proportions. Also the album features a couple of collaborations with two of Bill’s favourite up and coming new producers Avalon and Quantica.
Once again Cosmosis pulls it off with ease and imbues his music with a twist that makes his sound identifiable as Cosmosis. No mean feat in a genre which the music all too often sounds bland and generic.
Bill says:
"For this record again I’ve endeavoured to focus on quality, hence it’s taken me a while longer to to complete. Musically I've been digging into the deeper corners of the Cosmosis bag (fumbling for those funky frequencies ) so there's plenty of melody and colour interweaving and dancing between some very trippy psychoactive textured layers. Also I've been digging around discovering vast previously untapped seams of juicy old school vibe deep in the bag, which I've enjoyed layering on in spades in some of the tracks. Plenty of light and shade, keeping it musical and pleasing to the ear but yet still making it a phat and pumping, raging and jumpin', pedal to the metal, high octane, monster sub-bass fest... Hope you like it...."
Billy Cosmosis
There's no album padding here. All the tracks have distinct personalities. Each track been carefully and precisely crafted as only an experienced psy-trance producer with over 14 years of Trance record releases and live and DJ performance under his belt knows how.
The experience shows. In a scene where the music can tend towards the generic, it is indeed rare and refreshing to hear an artist with an original voice. Destined to become another must-have Psy-Trance classic.
