Hosey is a Post-Hip Hop PostPostPunk Samplecore duo [ P: How about this: "a PostPunk band that is Bored with Guitars" ? ] currently slugging it out in New York City. Patrik is the man behind the tables and samples, Hughes is the man swinging the bass around. The music could be lazily described as an all-too-literal combination of our influences. A more interesting way to describe it might be “What happens when Music becomes Self-Aware” or maybe “Where Music goes when It Dies”. Do you remember the scene in Transformers: The Movie (1986!) when Ultra Magnus and half the surviving Autobots land on the Planet of Junk and meet the “Junkions”, a race of robotic beings who are built of other planets' garbage? Their language is only made up of phrases lifted from Earthen TV broadcasts that reach their planet. The Junkions are a fair analog to our music: it's constructed from *a lot* of little pieces of other people's music strategically pocketed with vocals sampled from TV, movies, and other Earthling media.
We play live shows around New York City, mostly in the East Village, where we live. We also record a slew of music in our tiny little apartment, so we'll be continuously updating this page with new music and announcements about upcoming shows. We also go out to as many shows as we can and will try to keep this page updated with upcoming plans so everyone can go out and have a good ol' fun time hanging out.
Have Fun,
Hosey
