KOSMIC RENAISSANCE is a creative collaboration between three musical artists from the Bay Area. Their sound explores the edges of electronic, jazz, hip-hop, and world music, with layers of improvisational loops and textures, and challenging orgininality.
David Boyce, aka Osiris Black Edgar Kenyatta, aka Oskar Phat, aka Dogon 318 is one of the founding members of Bay Area acid jazz legends,
Broun Fellinis. With his amazing array of pedals, and electronics, which is aptly named Black Edgar™s Musicbox, David is considered by many to be a true master of the saxophone, and impressively he is at more powerful behind his musicbox, redefining the komos of sound for each performance
