PREMIERE: Kosmorama – Your Path You Must Decide

Serein – Oct 14th 2022
Flatland Frequencies · PREMIERE: Kosmorama – Your Path You Must Decide

Ahead of the official release this Friday, Kosmorama have shared with us the opening track from their new LP of same name, via the Serein label. We’re loving the juxtaposition of horns, electronics and decaying textures in this piece.

After studying and living together, Christian Grothe (Kryshe) and Gregor Lener come together ten years later under the name Kosmorama. Inspired by science fiction, they create improvised cosmic jazz music with trumpet, home made DIY synths and samplers.

Pre-orders via bandcamp!
