The Mad Drummer is the solo experimental project of South African based drummer Mandisi Nkomo. The project pushes the boundaries of electronic composition. 

The Mad Drummer is also an insane character crawling out of Mandisi's skin.


Every demon wants his pound of flesh. But i like to keep some things to myself.

The Dark Cow is the pseudonym for South African based producer, writer and drummer Mandisi Nkomo.

Songwriting and demo project  by Anton Marshall from Cape Town, South Africa. Mostly synth pop, freeform, fun, experimental. Active (with several years of inactivity in between) since 1993.

I am not a professional musician. Not at all. 

I play drums, well, I did, but I still do. It is complicated.

Basically, I have 'retired' from the band life, but I still love drums and playing them. I just cannot stand the creative process with people that want different things to me. I am a dick like that. 
I also cannot stand South African crowds, they are the worst. 

So basically, I thought I might as well upload most or all of what I have recorded (studio or otherwise) and post it up for anyone who wants to listen to them. 
No big deal.
I just want what I do to be 'out there' and accessible. 
Like I said, I am no professional, but i have been playing for nearly 15 years I would think. 
Self taught and passionate. Ability is up there, but technique isn't.

Now you know me, listen to my stuff.
And please, do not troll. There is no need.
