Beautiful Sounds Of Kosmoratik Band

By Marci Glover


Music requires something unique for the fans to feed on. This is an aspect that is clear to Kosmoratik band and can be seen in each one of their tracks. They have mastered the art of layering in order to give depth to their music. It gives the track a new sense of depth and allows every word to communicate something different. The pioneers of this band were Eivind, Lise Lotte and Gunner Odd who started as an experimental group. They are based in Oslo, from where they have been operating since 2011.

The first fruits of the layering experiment were seen in 2012 with the release of Gravitation, their first album. This opened doors for them to tour the world through concerts. The number of fans has increased to involve people from different generations. Their musical style involves a combination of symphonic and classical rock. Their most prominent sounds are oboe, acoustic guitar and string quartet. The influence of the group has grown due to a professional approach to composition.

The first album opened a new chapter and ignited a hunger for their type of music. They managed to release a second album entitled Bridges and Boats which remained classical but experimented a little more. The songs were written in psychedelic version found in the 60s and 70s pop music. It carried a lot of feelings through careful selection of melody, words and sound instruments.

The band tackles complex and very deep themes. The concept of layering that was a flagship for the band allows the lyrics to have double meaning. Inclusion of the symphonic and classical rock feel as well as experiments with progressive rock has made the music more endearing. The second album is no longer an experiment but mastery of skills.

Johansen Eivind is a pioneering member of the group and a pillar to its success. He is excellent with string and wind instrument arrangement and produces superb melodies. He masters the techniques and grows it with every track. He is responsible for the ballad feel in the songs.

Odd Gunner is a multi-talented instrumentalist whose prowess and passion are on the guitar. He also works with Johansen to arrange the tracks during production stage. Lise Lotte is an incredible vocalist who has conquered the world at competitive stage. She has the unique ability to shift from classical rock to jazz. Her voice is unique and memorable with a very wide range.

The global audience has been anticipating Bridges and Boats after having a feel of Gravitation. Their tours and concerts in different parts of the world have been outstanding. Among the mentors responsible for their success include Nick Drake and John Martyn. The band is impressed by their performance style and would love to emulate their success. As a band, they seek to trace the success of Beatles who beat everyone else during their era.

The lyrics in both Gravitation and Bridges and Boats are laced with a high dose of poetry. This is inspired by the works of such poets as Rumi and Hafez. Fans listen to their music online or by downloading from online stores. The music is as a result of professional composition, deep thought and a unique approach during production.
