Help Kosmic T create his next album

Welcome to the Gofundme for the next Kosmic T album!

I've got a new and tasty album in the works, and I'm asking for your help to bring it to life! It's been almost 6 years since the release of my last album Seeds Of Light , and this next project is shaping up to be a beautiful synthesis of the expansion, growth and magic I've experienced in that time . You can learn more about the inspiration, team, cost breakdown, and fundraising specifics for the album in the text below. 

Inspiration behind the album?

Amidst these times of rapid transformation and uncertainty, I felt inspired to create something that can bring us new hope & clear vision to help us navigate the challenge of our times. I've also been deeply touched by the beauty of the Pachakuti Mesa tradition, a Peruvian indigenous wisdom lineage rooted in deep reverence for the Earth and all life. These wisdom ways have  so generously blessed my life, and it has been a great joy and honour to weave some of the beauty, magic, and mystery of this tradition into the songs of this album. Countless artists, such as our brother Murray Kyle , have inspired me, along with spiritual teachers such as Don Oscar, Matt Kahn, Richard Rudd, and Kaia Ra through their freedom, clarity, and unshakeable devotion to love. 

Further inspiration? I see a need for more positive, life affirming, messages for our youth, and although this album is for people of all ages, I take particular joy in thinking of how these songs are going to positively impact the lives of the youth in our communities. From the beginning the young people have been some of my biggest fans (you guys rock!), and I feel inspired to do everything within my power to help them shine their light and do what they came here to do!

A little about the team behind the project . I'm grateful to have my dear brother and friend Andre Galic, aka "Andre Galactic," is coming back as my recording engineer. He worked with me on my first album "Seeds Of Light". And for the instrumentals I’m working with producers Dj Taz and Momentology - these guys are high vibe, heart centred, tuned in, tapped in, switched on artists and you can check out some of their tunes in the links below.

Cost Breakdown

I'm raising $5500 through this campaign to supplement some of the costs of production for the album (if we go above and beyond.. amazing!). This includes things like professional mixing, mastering, licensing fees, and audio engineering costs. So all the donations I receive will go directly towards the production of the album. 

The estimated total cost break down for the production of the album can be found below:

Audio engineer (Recording & Mixing): $1500 
Mastering: $1000
Licensing fees: $2500 (actual cost - $5000)
Recording Equipment: $700

Total Production Cost: $6200 (best estimate)

When will it be ready for us to hear? We are aiming for a fall release for the album. More details (and fun photos, videos, etc) will be updated here through the Gofundme campaign as things continue to unfold.

Title? Coming soon! ; ) 

Do I recieve anything for donating? Besides the joyful satisfaction of supporting this heart-inspired vision?... Yes! Everyone who donates will receive a special thank you offering before the album launch this fall. 

So this is me putting out the call to all my friends, family, fans! I'm asking for your help to help me bring this album, songs, and vision to life. So if you resonate with what I’m doing, if you’ve enjoyed my songs in the past, and if you're excited to see and hear the next evolution of Kosmic T , please make a donation, and together let’s make this happen! : )

Thanks so much for your contribution, I couldn’t do this without the support of the community and I can't wait to share these new songs with all you.

Starry Blessings
Kosmic
