Perplexed - An improvised song by Cosmic Bos ft. Joe Philogene

So friends,

New horizons are horizoning, improvisation sessions hidden within practices, all good stuff.

We here at Cosmic Bos have been doing some self reflecting, as is customary during lockdown times, and conclusions have been reached about some changes that need to take place. No longer having a master producer has put more onus on us mere musician types to step up to the plate and learn more production skills...we will do our best.

So first of the new deals is this improvisation we did with Joe Philogene, Perplexed 

Andy, Nick and Joe had an afternoon of musical whimsy and practice, which led to a handful of purely improvised songs, Perplexed being one of them. We had been having a moment outside where we were discussing how awesome Radiohead are, we even listened to an amazing Acapella version of 15 Steps, so we were feeling rather Thom Yorke inspired when we sat down to jam it out. 

This is the leading inspiration for the new show we will launch soon called 'Cosmic Bos Improvisation', it's improvised and then not revised, it's pure improvisation to its core, dropped notes and all. Coming soon in a big way to a podcast page near you.

We have also been practicing up our live skills ready for when the world realises that it needs live music again to help fill the void of virus fear. We have been using an up and coming streaming service called Sessions.

Hooray

We are doing our practices there, so come along and join our crew.

There is still plenty of Improv-Revisation shenanigans to come, it has not been abandoned, we just have some other things to attend to at this moment.

Our next months podcast will be an experimental new format which we are currently calling 'It's a Mike Schur thing' - where Nick and Andy will discuss their love of all things Mike Schur (creator of Parks and Recreation, Brooklyn99 and The Good Place), looking forward to trying something new.

Until then though, how about you hang around and check out some of our other creative endeavours

If You Tolerate This Your Children Will Be Next - Manic Street Preachers - Cosmic Bos/Acoustic Cover #5

 So dear friends,

the world is weird, things are weird, but we can still cover songs and have fun doing it. But, if you can tolerate this, then your children will be next, so send them the link to watch the video.

Here is the stuff I wrote on YouTube under this video

If You Tolerate This Your Children Will Be Next - Manic Street Preachers - Cosmic Bos Acoustic Cover #5 

Andy and Nick take on the mighty Manic Street Preachers song with their acoustical funliness, hopefully pushing the very important message of this song into peoples earholes, we all need to stand up for ourselves, and the more we put up with being treated like scum, the more we tell our children that this is acceptable behaviour. 

Power is always with the people, the illusion it isn't is also always with the people. Conspiracies and Governments both push the same agenda, the belief that a collection of slightly evolved primates can run and control everything for over 7 Billion other primates. The quicker we realise that no one is any better then anyone else and we are all just standing at a point in our existence where we can choose to usher in the change we want to see, or we can allow the lunatics to tell us what to do and keep this asylum party going until it literally runs out of fuel and claps out on the side of the road.

So yeah, acoustic covers, that's what you actually came here for, and this one if a personal favourite of Nick and Andy.

Karma Police - Radiohead Acoustic Cover (CB/AC #4)

 Hello friends,

So Radiohead are a pretty good band, probably one of our favourites over here at Cosmic Bos, we had the amazing fortune to go and see them live in a forest in Germany when they were touring In Rainbows, it is without a doubt one of the 5 best gigs we've ever been to, and, well, if you've ever seen Radiohead live, then you know what we're talking about.

So Karma Police by Radiohead, we did an acoustic cover of it, and it's here, with an introduction by Theodore Jackson

Such fun indeed, hope you enjoyed that, new one coming very soon

We also have a podcast special interview with ourselves that we did, it's coming this month for sure.

Have a wonderful moment, every moment you want to

Peace

I Know the End - Phoebe Bridgers Acoustic Cover (CB/AC #3)

 Hello dear friends,

One of the best albums of 2020 was Punisher by Phoebe Bridgers, and in our humble opinion the best track on that awesome album is I Know The End, the closing masterpiece. 

Here is Cosmic Bos Acoustic Covers (CB/AC) doing our rendition of I Know The End by Phoebe Bridgers

We hope you enjoyed that, it was a really fun one to do.

We are taking suggestions if you guys have any particular song you would like to hear in our acoustic stylings. We have a few ideas in the pipeline which we will get recorded soon, but any suggestions are greatly welcomed.

Check out our Improv Music and Comedy podcast, unlike anything else in the multiverse

Here's 'Aim' from Episode 17

Close to my Mind? - Ellie Goulding and Pixies mashup CB/AC Acoustic Cover #2

 Hello lovely person,

Cosmic Bos Acoustic Covers continues with our second outing, a mash up of Close to Me by Ellie Goulding and Where is My Mind? by Pixies. 

This was fun, we will no doubt do many more in the upcoming time of being alive and able to acoustically renderise such audio shenanigans. 

Cosmic Bos UPDATE: Firstly, apologies for no new episode on the 1st, we have been going through some things, and the global pandemic is not helping with the advancement of creative pursuits. There will be a new episode of Cosmic Bos Improv-Revisation podcast coming soon, a week or so, it will not be a new improv album, and there will not be a traditional Bos music video, we are in the midst of a restructuring and will resume normal programming as soon as we can. Until then though, we have a couple of special presentation podcasts to tide you over.

Please subscribe to our podcast, it's an ever evolving improvised music experiment that has so far produced some interesting and exciting results.
