Ray Kosmische is a musical project by Jai Knight.
Band/artist history
I started out recording experimental sound collages using a radio and tape overdubs.
As I continued I was influenced by albums like Chill Out and Space by The KLF to create longer "ambient" soundscapes.
I now record with other musicians as well as solo.
Have you performed in front of an audience?
I'm more into using the studio to create and have no plans to perform live.
If I did play live, it would probably be an experimental approach.
The idea of working with some kind of performance artist is appealing.
Your musical influences
City scenes, 2000AD comic, books, TV, films, 60's psychedelic pop, 70's German electronic music, 90's shoegaze & ambient, impressionist period music, drone music.
I'll name 10 albums (in no particular order)
1. Phil Spector - Echoes Of The 60's
2. White Noise - An Electric Storm
3. Ennio Morricone - The Very Best Of Ennio Morricone
4. Klaus Schulze - Cyborg

6. The Mothers Of Invention - Weasels Ripped My Flesh
7. The Jesus and Mary Chain - Psychocandy
