With Me

I will never understand what it means to be a person of color, but I can do my best to empathize with the people who have lived under much marginalization and oppression due to their race. I want to recognize that I use samples and take inspiration from cultures all around the world to create my music. My genre is a blend of my own creativity and that of other musicians, particularly people of color, that have had a profound influence on music since the dawn of time. In particular, African people have shaped almost every genre of music known to man. I also take inspiration from Chinese, Japanese, Indian, and many other cultures to create the music that I make.

Umoja is the swahili word for Unity—meaning to strive for and maintain unity in the family, community, nation, and race. This song incorporates Mongolian throat sining and Senegalese vocals with trap 808s to create a really fun and high energy song. French is the Senegal national language, and there are over 30 languages spoken in Senegal. So, I chose the Swahili word Umoja for this song to declare that the music that I create is a symbol for unity across borders and across race. I never knew that throat singing and African singing could be so incredible together—and what an amazing world we live in where this is even a possibility.

All of my music, and this song in particular, is a tribute to people of color across the world who have given me the ability to use the incredible musical vocabulary and instruments from their cultures. I want to explicitly express my immense gratitude and appreciation for these people who have shared and given the rights to their music to use in my own creative process. 

I choose to use my undeniable privilege to do my best to make the world a better place for everyone around me regardless of their race or nationality. Everyday I look to see how I can be better for everyone around me and how I can serve the planet more. 

If you are a white musician I would encourage you to also recognize where your music comes from and the people that made it possible for you to create what you create. May we all continue to unify and to not let the powers that be tear us apart and make us villainize one another. With love, respect, and gratitude.

HARNESS THE SOUP! 

"Cosmoganic has whipped up something quite tasty in his most recent, wholesome release, “Harness the Soup”. As an eight-course meal, featuring creamy psydub and earthy swamp, it’s a gorgeous symphony meant to satisfy any dance floor or curious audiophile. This hypnotic whompfest takes us on a groovy dive into an electric ocean of head-bobbing rhythms and crunchy melodies. Its alluring harmonies and tribal drumscapes are refreshing, to say the least, intertwined against a backbone of memorable composition. 
Prepare for an auditory treat; your soup is ready." -Nick Sumbles 

Blending the realms of Earth and Space through electronic/organic hybrids, Cosmoganic (Ollie Jackson) creates sounds for our evolving species in the Spirit of Love for all Nature and Life... his debut album 'Harness The Soup' is a squish bass lovers dream. 

Now available through Swamp Music!

Govinda is the alter-ego of Austin based producer/composer Shane Madden. He began studying violin and composition at the age of eight and went on to study classical violin at the University of Texas where he fell in love with electronic music production. It was in Madden’s pursuit of his gypsy roots that he opened his ears to music from around the world. From experiences learning violin with mysterious masters on his journeys across the globe and his passion for modern design and technology, the current sound of Govinda was born.
