Cosmograf

Another recent guest spot, I am playing bass (...and also a little bit of atmospheric ebow) on a couple of tracks on the new album by Robin Armstrong's Cosmograf project, which is out very soon.

You can hear a track in full below, I used my Spector USA fretless for this one:

Recent Guest Recordings.

A couple of recent things, I always enjoy finding different contexts to play bass in and two things I've been involved recently couldn't be more different, but linked by intensity and individuality, and perhaps a few shared influences.



Firstly, I am playing mainly fretless bass (….a little upright too) on Tim Bowness's forthcoming album 'Abandonded Dancehall Dreams'.
Some of these tracks will also form part of the live repertoire for the Henry Fool/ Bowness dates this coming summer, which I am very much looking forward to.

Tim's album is coming out next month in a few different formats (coloured vinyl, CD etc) and the usual pre-orders are happening here:

Secondly, equally intense but in a completely different way, below is another track I have completed for Matthew Richard's "Dancing for Architecture" project:

Colin
