OSOMO

OSOMO’s music creates spaces for pause, retreat and contemplation away from the outside world and its frantic pace. Music that is geared towards the inner world. It is an invitation to let go – and to travel – in our frenetic times. It is music that carries you away, a soundscape in which listeners can let themselves go with their own thoughts, feelings and physical sensations, move around, and rest. A journey that takes everyone to a different place. OSOMO’s live-sets (known as “horizontal concerts”) build a musical and physical space in which to lie down, dream and sleep; from letting go to the most focused, deepest listening. Osomo makes music that envelops you and carries you away. To be touched by music, whether in the body or in the mind, is a mysterious and stimulating – and above all unfathomable – experience. “I’ve always been looking for that moment when music can change our state of mind,” says Simon Baumann. OSOMO is his solo project. Baumann is Stephan Eicher’s drummer, and has collaborated with Colin Vallon, Mario Batkovic, Don Li, and others.
