Adventurer. Storyteller. Artisan. Collector. And above all, Writer. Cosmo Sheldrake is all that. And more! A virtuoso one-man orchestra, master of an indecent number of instruments, the young Brit crafts magical and genre-defying little symphonies. These songs evoke Beirut's fanfare (a thing we often find ourselves thinking about) as much as they do repetitive minimalist music, world music, the baroque pop of the Kinks' "Village Green Preservation Society" and the late sixties, the iconoclast Moondog and countless other sounds. These are sounds that Cosmo Sheldrake merrily collects from across the globe, with his little tape recorder in hand. But the power of "The Much Much How How And I" lies in its refusal to wallow in experimental self-indulgence. On the contrary! Songs, real ones, with a beginning, middle and end - plus a chorus and a melody - remain his holy grail. His album is touching and beautiful because it was conceived with this unique goal in mind. With electro producer Matthew Herbert at the console, himself no stranger to bizarre collages, "The Much Much How How And I" has all the fertile imagination of a Lewis Carroll story, and all the colours of the rainbow. This has to be the most Cosmo-politan Qobuzissime yet!

Un voyageur. Un conteur. Un bricoleur. Un collectionneur. Et surtout, un auteur. Cosmo Sheldrake est tout ça. Et plus encore ! Homme-orchestre virtuose, maîtrisant un nombre indécent d’instruments, le jeune Britannique est l’artisan de petites symphonies magiques et apatrides. Des chansons qui évoquent aussi bien l’esprit de fanfare cher à Beirut (auquel on pense d’ailleurs souvent) que la musique répétitive et minimaliste, les musiques du monde, la pop baroque comme les Kinks de "Village Green Preservation Society " la concevaient à la fin des sixties, l’univers de l’iconoclaste Moondog et mille autres sons. Des sons que Cosmo Sheldrake s’amuse à collecter aux quatre coins du monde, un petit enregistreur toujours à portée de main.
Mais la force de "The Much Much How How And I " est de ne jamais sombrer dans le bavardage expérimental. Bien au contraire ! La chanson, la vraie, avec un début, un milieu et une fin - refrain et mélodie inclus - reste son Graal. Son album est touchant et beau car conçu avec ce but unique en tête. Avec le producteur électronique Matthew Herbert derrière la console, lui aussi habitué des collages ovnis, "The Much Much How How And I " a l’imagination foisonnante d’un texte de Lewis Carroll et toutes les couleurs sonores de l’arc-en-ciel. A coup sûr, le plus Cosmo-polite des Qobuzissimes !

Jesus Christ he’s the most precious man ever, my life has changed significantly since I’ve heard his music. His lyrics can be so inspiring and the music in general is so beautiful and catchy.

[@leif1075]

Wow I just got intongim..well about teo years ago also but just curious why you find his music so inspiring, if I may ask..whatbis so beautiful? I want to make music like him too, I think..

[@rionnag_dubh159]

Mr Sheldrake could start floating like "Oh yeah, I'm a god, too" and no one would bat an eye.

[@leif1075]

Why do you say that?

[@foxdenham]

I'm a 63 year bloke and a fan of Cosmo's mother and father's work wonderful works. Then I bought Merlin's inspiring book and through this found Cosmo's amazing music (why did it take me sooo long). Anyway, I'm a multi-media, multi-interest artist, who works alone and through this crazy collective, I have found inspiration and a sense of belonging. I guess I'm a 'Family' Sheldrake fan! I wonder what their pets do?

[@valeriy8502]

Is this just the most amazing family? Both his parents and brother are so inspiring and wise

[@letshaveanormalname6325]

Yessss

[@duckcat6043]

I absolutely adore this man and his brother, Merlin. They're such creative inspirations.

[@oewis]

What about their father?

I only started listening to Cosmo Sheldrake's music a month ago and I haven't stopped since. They are relaxing melodies, which transmit peace and reflection. I knew him from "The Moss" but this is definitely my favourite album (The Much Much How How and I). He is very young, I hope we can enjoy many more years of his music. I'm from Mexico, I'm from Mexico, I wish you every success. Hace apenas un mes que comencé a escuchar la música de Cosmo Sheldrake y no he parado desde entonces. Son melodías relajantes, que transmiten paz y reflexión. Lo conocí por "The Moss" pero definitivamente este es mi álbum favorito (The Much Much How How and I).

[@taylorfiller4706]

I love your new album Cosmo! So glad you got to do this interview. I found your music about a month before the apple commercial with Come Along aired and was so astounded by how you grew and to learn about your story! You're a huge inspiration to me and I hope I get to meet you or at least see you live someday. Keep doing what you're doing! :)

Thank you, Qobuz and Mr. Sheldrake, for this excellent interview! I have only recently discovered Mr. Sheldrake's music (and the CD you have shown is now on the way to my CD player, thank you!).
