The Man Left In Space - Musique

COSMOGRAF Is A Progressive Rock Project Lead By Robin Armstrong A Multi Instrumentalist Musician From Waterlooville Nr Portsmouth UK. The Sound Is Rooted In 70s Classic Rock With A Contemporary And Progressive Twist. Robin Armstrong Pictured Plays Guitar Keyboards Bass And Drums Sings And Records Producing Himself And Fellow Collaborating Musicians In His Home Studio 'The Trees' Self Built At The Bottom Of The Garden. The Project Is Now In It's Third Incarnation With A Number Of Talented Musicians From The Progressive Rock Community Performing And Writing On The New Album 'When Age Has Done It's Duty'. 'Neo Prog' Is About As Close As You Can Get To A Label But The Occasional Lapse Into Straight Metal Or Even Classical Often Dumbfounds A Catch All Description. I've Never Been Very Talented In Weaving The Genres Seamlessly Together Like 'Yes' Would Do. It's Fairly Clear Where It's At Though When You Listen To It. I've Always Enjoyed Music That Polarizes Audiences And Demands Attention. As A Teenager I Was Captivated By Deep Purple's Fusion Of Heavy Rock With Baroque Intros Or Lead Lines. It's Just Fun To Throw In Something That Is Completely Unexpected But Yet Just Fits. I Much Prefer To Write Music Around Concepts. Progressive Rock Allows You The Freedom To Span Genres Stop And Start In Different Tempos Insert Mad Sound Effects And Generally Tell A Story Or Simply Create A Soundscape With No Real Meaning. This Creates A Musical Freedom Far Beyond The Commerical Rules And Constraints Of A 3min Pop Song. The Band Has So Far Released Three Albums. read less
