Oh, it's Big Mic by the way, I've had to step in and start running the MMC Challenger, I have enlisted David Battenberg Cake and the Sexy German to go and press the buttons (not RUB the buttons as SG seems prone to doing) so that this episode made it off of the interdimensional Rocket Submarine Train and into your podcast feed. This is Episode 2.5 - Funk Drunk Love,...

Hello dear friend, welcome to the Monthly Music Challenge podcast with your hosts Cosmic Bos.

Welcome to the Extra part of the Monthly Music Challenge 2.3 Intergalactic episode. Join Andy and Nick (Cosmic Bos) as they make ammends for a rather massive faux par on their part, missing off a song from the list. So firstly, a huge Sorry to Taylor Lidstone, Peoples Choice Award Winning artist and utter legend, Taylor, your Intergalactic song is amazeballs! We didn't miss it off of the list because it didn't fit the theme, we missed it off because Big Mic has been moving all the emails about from 6 years in the future. Why he was ever given time manipulation powers will never make sense....

Episode 1.7 - Mother Earth
Join Nick and Andy (Cosmic Bos) as we explore the musical interpretations created for our wonderful Mother Earth by some of the most talented musicians in the whole world. What did we all choose to say about Gaia, the great ball on which we all reside ? Well you are in for a treat friends, as all this music has been environmentally sourced, has an extremely low carbon footprint and has travelled from around our great planet without clocking in any airmiles (email miles don't count).
Prepare to give praise to Gaia, Mother Earth, the big Blue & Green, with the musical stylings of Mobidextrous, Andrew Hartshorn, Hellwaddler, Trench Gun, Aye Nevo, Man of Arun, TexMex Shaman, Taylor Lidstone, A Sea Warren, Notehead, JPeck, Trommelfell.MB and your idiotic hosts Cosmic Bos with special guests Joe Philogene and Dayne Howcroft.
Cosmic Bos put out their songs on an EP, which coincidently always has the same title as the coresponding episode of the Monthly Music Challenge. It will be available everywhere, but on bandcamp it will be purchasable. You can also pick up singles, twingles, EPs and Albums by most of the great artists featured in this episode. Please check them all out and share the musical connections.
The next theme for MMC 1.8 is Dreams #Dreams
Please send your mp3's with a little write up about the song to [email protected]
If you are a first time submitter please send a bio about yourself too, otherwise Nick and Andy will make something up and it will likely be very silly, music is a serious business and Cosmic Bos's style of podcast most certainly isn't serious.
You have until the 8th September 2023 to get your Dreams songs in, as well as any late submissions for the previous themes. (previous themes are 1. New Beginnings, 2. Escape, 3. Ignorance, 4. Winning, 5. Razzmajazz, 6. Artificial Intelligence and now 7. Mother Earth)
Good luck! Get your dreamy brain on and make up a song.
