biography cosmosis

Bill Halsey, the producer behind Cosmosis (and Mumbo-Jumbo) is a former professional session guitarist from London. During this part of his musical career he played with countless bands playing Rock, Funk, Jazz, Blues, Pop and Hip-Hip, touring Europe and Australasia.

Bill says: "Being a session muso was a game of extremes; some of the bands that I played with contained some of the most incredibly talented musicians that I ever had the pleasure to blag my way onto a stage with. On the other hand some of the bands were unbelievably awful and in the name of making a living, I used to commit some of the most heinious musical crimes known to man - on a regular basis ..."

Bill honed his writing and recording skills by composing and and recording pop tracks for over ten years before finally becoming involved with creating pure electronic music. He is now as much in demand to compose music for picture as he is for live appearances to play his particular brand of tongue-in-cheek, full power Psy-Trance music on dancefloors quite literally all over the globe.

During the last 12 years of touring Bill has played Cosmosis music to ecstatic crowds in such diverse places as: Taiwan, Brazil, Israel, India, Bali, Germany, Australia, New Zealand, Colombia, United States, Egypt, Switzerland, Sweden, Hungary, Denmark, England, Spain, Ireland, Canada, Serbia, Scotland, Japan, Belgium, Holland, Greece, South Africa, Russia, France, Mexico and Portugal and plays regularly in many of these countries.

He is currently involved in creating the music for several 3D computer animation/music projects for release on DVD as well as cooking up the new and soon-to-be-ready Cosmosis album, provisionally entitled: Psychedelica Melodica Watch this space. Bill now divides his studio time between scoring music for animation, making full power dance music and touring Cosmosis worldwide.
