Cosmic Voyage originated with analogue ambience at Glastonbury's New Age Dome in 1992 (with 3 SH101s). In 96 the Cosmic Pilot was swept away on a wave of midi and stumbled naturally into drum and bass. >>> They played Glastonbury Green Fields & Avalon Stages, Strawberry Fayre, Frome Fessie, Beach (Lizard) Festival, Orchardton Arts , Big Green Gathering. Marc Eva (Flute) and Rashid Iqbal (Dub Poetry) became permanent Crew,& Margi Clarke, Capt Sensible and others jammed .
The History
The 1st recording, Acid Radio was released on Neo's: Now What Kind Of Music Do You Call That? It was played in Whirl-Y-Gig's Parachute Set. Si then became guest DJ on Liverpool's Crash FM for a regular slice of Tranced out, trippy shit, with beats, hosted by Paul Berry. >>> After a packed gig at Liverpool's Zanzibar Club , The Band spent the winter of 98/99 rebuilding a digital format. Summer 99 was a busy time with Glastonbury and Megadog Eclipse Festival. 8 tracks were released on Rumour Records "Drum & Bass 2000 V.2", disc 2 of 4 disc set -sold over 3,500 copies.
Stardate 2000 - a new direction with departure of Rashid (to travel) & the arrival of Nicola Latham (sweet vocals), Gopal Birdy (Tabla) & Phil on Sitar & Trumpet. They played to a sold out gig again in the Zanzibar Club. >>> Glastonbury 2000 was awesome, with 4 fringe gigs, the best - Green Loops Cafe, Sunday, 1a.m. Big Green Gathering was quite mad - the 3 gigs they played needed the audience to pedal for power. October -Cosmic Voyage played The New Trinity in Bristol, supporting Banco-de-Gaia & DJ Monkeypilot. >>>

Si, Nicola, Gopal and Phil are working on new material after again upgrading equipment and production and are
about to record some fresh tracks. This time they are getting ready to take off!
