What? Some Electronica!

Electronica can really be chill.

How does Marc Bosserman qualify to sooth your savage beast Electronically? Simple: education, experience and desire.

With a gorgeous new Electronica CD “Electronic Chill” hot off the presses and the film music for “Invisible” wrapping up currently there are few genres that Marc hasn’t broached. Many people have heard his solo piano musings at The Parkway Grill or heard him singing backgrounds and doing keyboards with the Michael Duff band. But all that background music is really part of why Marc’s music is so compelling.

Music has always been central in Marc’s life. Both parents played and sang and there was always classical or pop music on the stereo when he was growing up. Piano lessons started at nine and a love affair with diverse music ranging anywhere from Beethoven to the Beatles. Elton John, Sting, Bruce Hornsby, and the early Windam Hill recordings were background for life. Ralph Towner, Keith Jarrett, bands where classical and electronic were being married like Yes and Gentle Giant. How about those pioneers like Vangelis, Tomita, Michele Jarre and all the rest?

From day one on the piano Marc, in addition to the usual piano lessons, started figuring out melodies by ear and improvising along to the radio. Beethoven was there on the bandstand but so was Phillip Glass, Keith Emerson, Rick Wakeman, Mike Oldfield and his “Tubular Bells”. Yes, those fingers and ears were working out for hours to try to capture the same beauty and excitement that inspired them.

The High School band experience added percussion and drumming into the mix and new musical forays into Big Band and Orchestral works. At age 17 a Moog synthesizer and an Electric Piano opened up all kinds of sonic possibilities. Today the world of computer music and the technology available to the palette is staggering.

Music is the soul food of everyone. It can do many things. It can sooth and restore life and create a backdrop to contrast the speed and confusion of today’s world. The trick is to find the marriage between technology and art. That’s the goal.

The studio is the tool and Marc is an artist intent on finding the soul of the technology.

Marc spends all of his free time in the studio creating new worlds and new realities. He is proud of his new CD, Electronic Chill. Feel free to email him at below or on the contact page.

He loves to meet new people.
