WHO IS THE KOSMISCHEBOY?
Kosmischeboy, or Dan Doughty as his mother prefers to call him, heralds from deepest darkest Lincolnshire. Inspired by various leftfield electronic and avant garde artists KB has been making his own electronic music under various monikers since the mid 90’s. He currently resides in the Steampunk capital of the UK, Lincoln due to an unhealthy obsession with Cogs.
KB is also a founding member of multimedia collective "Quiddity" with long time collaborator Gribbles. An electronic project described as "Fluke meet Underworld in a Warpy face off" which can be found at:

KB has also worked with other musicians both in a production role and as a performer. Past collaborations include the Dan Donovan CD "The Hexx The Ghears" (Produced by Gav Monaghan) and the krautrock/electronica collective "ProjectBlueBook".
2010 saw Kosmischeboy join forces with already established bands Temple Music and Orchis. He has gigged with them all over Europe throughout 2010/11 including an appearance at the legendary WGT Festival in Leipzig, Germany, adding his distinctive electronic edge to their Neo Folk/ Krautrock soundscapes. Or ruining the bands for everyone, depending on your opinion....
2012 saw Kosmischeboy perform at the Supernormal festival in Oxfordshire as part of Black Tempest's Space Opera.
