My name is Lawrence Wise. I'm (primarily) a ONE-MAN Home-Recording Project called "Lawrence Wise And The Cosmic Funk Orchestra/OSMOSIS"--same project, about two separate styles. Both are funky, but the 'parent project' (Cosmic Funk, for short) is very deep and experimental. Now, OSMOSIS on the other hand, just doesn't give a f***. It's a dangerous groove. (think "FUNKADELIC" to "PARLIAMENT"--you get the idea.)

It's a pleasure for me to spread my funk, from Broadjam (www.Broadjam.com/CosmicFunkOSMOSIS), to IndieCharts.com (www.IndieCharts.com/OSMOSIS), and now here, on Soundclick.

(And, as of recently, I've CHANGED the NAME of My Member Page from my Production Tradename, Starcase Records, to simply Cosmic Funk-OSMOSIS--so as to make it easy on folks. The CDs I offer and sell will still be under the Starcase banner--it IS my "Label" after all ^_^--but from now on, My Member Page will match-up with My Profile Page. Title-wise.--updated: Monday, Sept., 22, 2008 @10:37 am.)

And, there's much more to come.

Thank you, and N-Joy the Musical Insanity of Cosmic Funk-OSMOSIS.

The Funk DUCK HUNT is ON!!!: "Quack Quack?!"
BANG, Sucka!!!
I've had it with all those "Duck-Faces" on Facebook, so I'm joining "The Duck Hunt"--musically, of course!!
Got a hot Funk Hit on Soundclick (as OSMOSIS) called "Lawd! Funk A Duck-Face!", which ain't nothin' but one evil chant, backed-up by some nasty Keyboards, sick Dums, finger-popping 'Space Bass', and a howling Lead Guitar! All ME--no Filler!!
SO, if it has the FACE of a DUCK.....FUNK IT!!! (that's the CLEAN version of what's on the song!! LOL!!) N-Joy the New FUNK from OSMOSIS.

The Yearly HALLOWE'EN HIT From OSMOSIS & The BEATMASTER 1: I first uploaded "FRANKEN-Funk (It's Dark In Thar)" in 2007, as part of the OSMOSIS MP3-Album, "The TERRORIST Speaks!!". And, as a single--on behalf of The Daily Dose ofFunk collective, of which I'm a part of--it's been doing great. So great, that I've had the idea to ALWAYS place it at the top of my Player Station EVERY Fall, just in time for HALLOWE'EN. Well, in 2009, something happened: "FRANKEN-Funk" shot to #1 on the COMEDY/Parody Genre Charts, and held for about 2 weeks. Since then, it's been hitting #1 every year at this time for 3 years. THIS YEAR (2012) IS NO EXCEPTION. "FRANKEN-Funk (It's Dark In Thar)", a collab between myself (OSMOSIS) and The BEATMASTER 1, has become the

Some Psychedelic COSMIC FUNK ORCHESTRA Grooves: Ever since I've acquired a Gibson Axe, I've been doing a LOT of Guitar-based experimentation, for BOTH my Projects. Currently, as Lawrence Wise And The Cosmic Funk Orchestra, I have an instrumental single that's been bouncing between #1 and #3 on the ROCK/PSYCHEDELIC Genre Charts for about 2 months. It's called "Sharing Drinks With A Butterfly Fairy". N-joy.

A VAMPIRE Trying To Make It In Today's World: A very funny OSMOSIS Novelty-Funk Song, called "BLOOD-SUCKER BLUES", has been #1 in the URBAN/FUNK Genre Charts for just about 1 whole month. It's the first volley of a second OSMOSIS MP3-Album I'm putting the finishing touches on for a late-2012 upload. I'm trying to, at least, finish the vocals for ONE MORE Pre-Album Single, which I'm planning to upload just in time to celebrate Hallowe'en. So, get ready for it. And, N-joy the Funk!

Let's NOT Forget THANKSGIVING: Right at the TOP of my Song List (and directly on my YouTube page) is "FUNKY THANKSGIVING" by OSMOSIS and GothaDelic. The song's mission: to become an annual tradition, just like my other main HOLIDAY TRACKS, "FRANKEN-Funk (It's Dark In Thar!)"-Halloween, and "EVIL CLAUS!!"-Christmas. It's my way of saying, "Let's NOT FORGET the HOLIDAY-in-Between". N-Joy!!
