Hello friends,
With the full album coming out very soon (1st April in fact), Cosmic Bos would like to turn your attention towards our latest single 'Vaccine'.
It is advised that you listen to the song at least twice to make sure you are fully Vaccinated, but for complete coverage it is advised you listen at least once a day.
This song has been released alongside a companion A side, 'Sir, France is 'cross the Sea, See' which will be getting the video treatment too, we just haven't finished it yet (it has been filmed, just needs editing)
The music for Vaccine was made by doing layered improvisation, with our special guest Chris Mace joining the Bos bro's, meaning only two rounds were needed (although we may have done three rounds, I scares remember). The music was then matched up with a previously written poem by Andy Jackson called 'Vaccine'.
Here is the original full poemVACCINE by Andy Jackson
The world is a scary and dangerous place
But based on the numbers, the human race
Is doing just peachy and spreading out quickly
You can tell coz the host body’s getting quite sickly
Could it be true, just like the flu
We are the virus, the variants too
Earth did some healing when we stared at the ceiling,
Imagine if earth gets the vaccine for you
Sure we are clever and built for adaption
But Gia’s been having an allergic reaction
She’s depleted and requires serious attention
It’s unmediated, A Greta intervention
We are the virus, earth is the host
She’s having a stroke, can you smell burning toast?
We’ve got to act fast, we risk getting the ghost
If toxic shock sets in we’ve an hour at mostHarmonious living tween host and microbes
The employees are wearing the emperor’s clothes
Earthquake, tsunamis, volcanos and fires
Are vaccines for us, the deadliest virus
Heart disease, cancer, common colds and flu
Are all types of vaccine, if the virus is you
Let’s change our behaviour, there’s still wiggle room
Old ways of thinking should remain in the tomb
Stop staring at Lara with a hundred times zoom
We are just moments on a timeline of plenty
We enter with nothing and pretend we aren’t empty
But once we’re fulfilled any more is just greedy
The overspill should be providing the needy
And anything we take we give in return
Earth owe us nothing, we need to learn
Ignorance is letting half of the world burn
Self fulfilling vaccine as the tables turn
...
Few more words there then in the song, but there was no way to fit the whole poem in so it got a little butchered to fit the music.
Coming of the 1st April is the full album Cosmic Bos Improv Squared: Petite Champignon de Lumiere
11 tracks, all in some way crafted using our new music making technique, Improv Squared. Including the singled 'Faded Memories', 'Ensemble Story', 'Astral Underwear', 'Forever Bruised', 'Vaccine' and 'Sir, France is 'cross the Sea, See'.
As previously mentioned, there is another video to come for this album, and then potentially another one after that for the song 'Back is Back'. More on that to follow.
The album will also be getting a bandcamp release to hopefully get us some much needed revenue.
Thanks for being awesome
