Kosmische Boy

Electronic and Rock
A.k.a. Dan Doughty

Kosmischeboy, or Dan Doughty as his mother prefers to call him, heralds from deepest darkest Lincolnshire. Inspired by various leftfield electronic and avant garde artists KB has been making his own electronic music under various monikers since the mid 90’s. He has released two full length albums under the Kosmischeboy name, '1969 Eldorado' in 1998 and 'Clockwerk' in 2008. A third album entitled 'Kollectiv' is due in 2014. Albums can be found at: http://kosmischeboy.bandcamp.com/ KB is also a founding member of multimedia collective "Quiddity" with long time collaborator Gribbles. An electronic project described as "Fluke meet Underworld in a Warpy face off". They have released two albums so far, "Broadening" (in 2010) and "Aether Songs" (in 2013) which can be found at: http://quiddity.bandcamp.com/ Over the years Kosmischeboy has worked with other musicians both in a production role and as a performer. Past collaborations include the Dan Donovan CD "The Hexx The Ghears" (Produced by Gav Monaghan) and the krautrock/electronica collective "ProjectBlueBook". 2010 saw Kosmischeboy join forces with both Temple Music and Orchis as synth player and laptop musician, and feature on several recordings released since then. He has performed with both bands all over Europe throughout 2010/13 including an appearance at the legendary WGT Festival in Leipzig, Germany, adding his distinctive electronic edge to their Neo Folk/ Krautrock soundscapes. 2011 also saw Kosmischeboy as a winner of the yearly :Wumpscut: remix competition, with his remix of the track 'Grobian' featuring as a bonus download for the 'Women and Satan First' Boxset. 2012 saw Kosmischeboy perform at the Supernormal festival in Oxfordshire as part of Black Tempest's Space Opera, a second appearance with Black Tempest followed in 2013 at the Woolf Music festival. 2013 saw Kosmischeboy resurrect his collaboration with punk poet Eaglespits, and several UK tour dates over the Summer as Eaglespitshexx. Recording sessions also took place and these will be released in early 2014.
