An Experimental Project (Lawrence Wise And The Cosmic Funk Orchestra), and a Loose Funky Jammer (OSMOSIS). 2 separate sides, the very same dude.
Hello. Lawrence Wise And The Cosmic Funk Orchestra/OSMOSIS is actually a One-Man Home Recording Project that has been my 'stress relief' (ha ha!), since about MAY, 1981. I'm from that first wave of DIY Cassette-Tapers ('analog'--and PROUD OF IT!). Hell, the majority of my material between '81 and '99 was done on the earliest large-model Casio Synthesizers (the MT-68, MT-400-V and MT-200), with a Yamaha thrown into the mix (on occasion). Recently, I've started posting my material on the web (after transfering it from cassette-tape to digital disc, and then to MP3---a very hard process, considering the AGE of some of the tapes). It was in these past 2 1/2 years on the web that I discovered that, despite the ridicule you're going to get, there IS an Audience for your music--no matter how different it is. I've been telling some of my friends and peers for years to NEVER get rid of ANY of their recordings, no matter how 'crappy' you were (of think you were), because having a 'Back Catalog' is a damn good thing. You MAY have been sitting on some GEMS, and not even know it. And, when I discovered that a 21-year-old jam I posted on MySpace recently ROCKED a lot of folks as far away as SCOTLAND and AFRICA (!), I felt pumped. It means that this was a 'dream' that came thru in the end.

Story behind the song
And now, onto our continuing musical Sci-Fi story: Chapter Two: "Ambassador Stellaar" Ambassador Stellaar is technically the HEROINE of this story, a beautiful Diplomat hired by the U.P.F. to negotiate the invitation for interstellar union with Planet Gaea. It also helps that Stellaar's race, despite pretty 'minute differences', could easily PASS for the people of Gaea, so as NOT to ALARM them. After all, Planet Gaea does not know of the existence of people from other worlds....yet. Let alone Stellaar's race (we call her 'people', "ANGEL"). At the SAME TIME, "The ONE" is using some very persuasive lies to keep the people of Planet Gaea in line, telling them that the existence of Aliens is a "Mythological LIE!" Naturally, the people BELIEVE him--he is GOD, after all. Meanwhile, Ambassador Stellaar has her Pilot and Navigator hide her Star Cruiser, while she transforms herself into "someone from another country". This allows her to go to Mounument City, the Capitol Of Planet Gaea, to meet with The Heads Of State, hoping to put the U.P.F.'s plan in motion. While all this is transpiring, the U.P.F. eventually FINDS "The Mad Renagade", identified as Mandeaux Rex The Celestial Dragon (in his return to the Cosmic Funk Orchestra canon for the first time in over 20 years!!)--- ---on Planet Gaea!!! Not good, considering that Stellaar is also there trying to get this planet to join the U. P. F. How will all this play out? Keep following the story as it grows.
