When will I get the track I purchased?
You can download all related files immediately after your purchase. We also email you a one-time download link for a download later.
How can I remove the audio tag from the track?
A "tagged beat" is a demonstration version of an instrumental that contains distinct audio watermarks that typically play throughout the entire track. The purpose of a producer tagging his/her instrumental is to prevent piracy and to encourage serious recording artists to purchase a license.
To get a tag-free audio please make sure you purchase a license which features "untagged audio".

What is a stem / trackout file?
A Stem file is an audio file that contains a track split into several musical elements: A drums stem, a bassline stem, a harmony stem, and a lead stem for example.
The Stem file also usually includes the original stereo master of the track for standard playback.
The Stem file also usually includes the original stereo master of the track for standard playback.
Why would I need a stem / trackout file?
A trackout file gives you much better control. Imagine you rap over a beat and you realize the percussions take the focus away from your vocals. With a trackout file
you can simply tone down the percussion and the focus is now on the vocals. With a trackout file you have much more flexibility and a whole different level of control.
Brian Fowler Comprehensive Biography (Music & Film)
Overview
Brian Fowler is an American musician, composer, and performer based in Columbus, Georgia. A multi-instrumentalist whose sound bridges Appalachian Americana, progressive bluegrass, and psychedelic space-rock, Fowler’s creative career spans more than three decades. His distinctive “cosmic Americana identity links the folk traditions of the American South with the experimental and space-rock lineage of the San Francisco psychedelic era.
Early Career and Musical Foundations
Born in 1967, Fowler began performing and writing music in the Southeast during the 1980s while balancing college and military service. His early exposure to both Appalachian folk and electric psychedelia shaped the hybrid style he would later call “Musicnaut a blend of mandolin-driven roots music and atmospheric, exploratory soundscapes.
By the early 1990s, he was an established working musician in Georgia and Alabama, performing bluegrass and Americana while simultaneously exploring ambient and progressive recording techniques.
Collaborations and Bands
San Francisco Blue The Jefferson Airplane Connection
In 2000, Fowler co-founded San Francisco Blue with Bob Harvey, the original bassist of Jefferson Airplane (1965). Their album Idiot’s Vision (recorded 2000, released 2001) fused Harvey’s folk-psych heritage with Fowler’s modern southern textures.
Fowler’s contributions as guitarist, mandolinist, and co-composer were significant, and this collaboration officially tied him to the Jefferson Airplane family tree.
He is mentioned by name in Craig Fenton’s 2006 book Take Me to a Circus Tent: The Jefferson Airplane Flight Manual, where Harvey credits him as his musical collaborator and later partner in SpaceSeed. This publication firmly documents Fowler as part of the Jefferson Airplane lineage that connects 1960s San Francisco folk-rock to 21st-century Southern space-rock.
SpaceSeed and Psychedelic Legacy
Fowler went on to play and record with SpaceSeed, the long-running space-rock collective associated with members of Hawkwind and Secret Saucer.
Working alongside Harvey, John Pack, and Steve Hayes, Fowler helped evolve the group’s sound into the 2010s, contributing to albums and live shows featuring various Hawkwind alumni.
His performances with SpaceSeed and its affiliated acts established Fowler as part of the Hawkwind / Jefferson Airplane crossover legacy, uniting British and American branches of the psychedelic underground.
Southern and Americana Projects
In Georgia and Alabama, Fowler became a central figure in the modern bluegrass and Americana circuits:
Bibb City Ramblers (20072023) A Columbus/Auburn-based Americana and bluegrass ensemble known for festival performances and acoustic gatherings.
Blackberry Possum (20162019) A high-energy “slam-grass band blending traditional Appalachian tunes with jam-band improvisation.
The Evergreen Family Band (2024present) Fowler’s current Americana collective performing across South Georgia and Americus (notably at Pretoria Fields and Wolf Creek).
The Jupiter 4 (20242025) A studio and live collaboration with Sloan Leavens, James Dunn, and John Pack, combining krautrock, space-psych, and Georgia roots instrumentation.
Fowler also leads solo instrumental and electronic work under the identity “Brian Fowler Kosmische Musik, released on SoundClick in 2025.
Visual & Conceptual Art
Parallel to his music, Fowler creates visual collage art, album covers, and poster designs rich in cosmic symbolism planets, mandolins, WW-era cosmonauts, and Appalachian mythic motifs. His artwork often centers on recurring symbols such as “No Binoculars Before the Maze, “Shock My Heart, and “Musicnaut.
These visual themes unify his music and storytelling, creating a personal mythology that connects his Georgia roots to the broader psychedelic tradition.
Film Work and Screen Roles
Fowler has also ventured into independent and cult cinema, appearing in two underground films directed and produced by Kreg Thornley:
Chaos God
Sun Monster
In these experimental productions, Fowler appears under the performance alias Superczar, blending surreal performance, dark humor, and psychedelic imagery. The films gained underground recognition for their avant-garde approach, combining mythic sci-fi and absurdist narrative with Southern Gothic energy themes that resonate strongly with Fowler’s music.
Themes and Legacy
Across every project from the bluegrass of Bibb City to the deep-space odysseys of SpaceSeed Fowler’s art expresses an American duality: earthbound storytelling and cosmic exploration.
He describes his work as “Americana meeting the infinite where a mandolin and a Moog can speak the same language.
As both musician and visual storyteller, he continues to champion regional creativity in Columbus and Americus while maintaining direct artistic ties to the enduring psychedelic lineage that began in San Francisco’s 1960s counterculture.

produced by Kreg Thornley). The film combines cosmic horror, surreal humor, and psychedelic
performance art, extending Fowler’s creativity into avant-garde cinema and visual storytelling. Across
his career, Fowler’s art expresses the duality of American roots and cosmic exploration mandolin
and Moog, earth and ether. His collaborations link him directly to the legacy of Jefferson Airplane,
SpaceSeed, and the modern psychedelic underground, while his Southern voice grounds that legacy in
Americana tradition. He continues to produce, perform, and design art throughout the Chattahoochee
Valley, merging music, film, and cosmic storytelling into one evolving artistic continuum.Appeared with Colonel Bruce Hampton live in 2017 4 shows in Birmingham,Atlanta and Buena Vista fornthebre- opening of pasaquan
