    Standard CD edition Includes immediate download of album.

    Scheduled for release June 2014, Ever Evolving Lounge contains ten short blasts of melodic, energetic and distinct pop songs all ready to drill a hole through your senses.

    "The Beach Boys, Todd Rundgren, Brian Eno and McCartney II inform the mix, but that's just the tip of the iceberg. Essential. 4/5." -Jon "Mojo" Mills- Shindig Magazine

    "Pick of the week,a psychedelic-pop gem with much to recommend!"- Valis, Trip Inside This House

    "If you close your eyes you can definitely spot A Wizard and A True Star dancing to Paul McCartney fronting The Monkees, drunk on a magical potion consisting of cider and early electronic juices." -Clam In A Jam

    "......not a filler track to be found. Highly Recommended to all those with a healthy love of nostalgia and sunny melodies." -Powerpooaholic

    "this merry-go-round kaleidoscope of bygone melodies is an affectionate, warm-hearted treat for the ears." -Monolith Cocktail

    "....there are moments here where the diversity on show captures the easy cross-genre pollination that the younger Todd Rundgren used to so effortlessly master. Soooooo good." -The Active
    Listener

    " The duo have great ears for melodies and harmonies and are not afraid to experiment with them.....an incredible album." -Everything Flows Blog

    "Ever Evolving Lounge takes you on the most pleasant of psychedelic trips back to the glory days of 60’s pop music." -Ravechild

    "Dr Cosmo’s Tape Lab sound like they have stepped out of a Tardis from the sixties but, given that they clearly know their way around a pop song, we should be grateful for that. 4/5" -Bluesbunny

lyrics

Hexagonal sweetness is here in the hive
Just-a one sweet drop cab make me feel so alive
Your loving colours in yellow and black
But there's a sting in the tale when you're on the attack

Queen Bee, suckin' on the honey
Queen Bee, suckin' on the honey, ye
Queen bee, suckin' on the honey
She's buzzing round my brain and I'm feeling kinda funny

You're sending signals all covered in smoke
and the message is clear but now I'm starting choke
It's hot and sticky, honey comb your hair.
But if you brush in a rush you can go anywhere

Queen Bee, suckin' on the honey
Queen Bee, suckin' on the honey, ye
Queen bee, suckin' on the honey
She's buzzing round my brain and I'm feeling kinda funny

We're getting funky producing hot wax,
we use a long proboscis just to sing on the tracks
Pollen collected is sure food for thought
so keep on giving up the honey give if all that you got

Queen Bee, suckin' on the honey
Queen Bee, suckin' on the honey, ye
Queen bee, suckin' on the honey
She's buzzing round my brain and I'm feeling kinda funny

about

Dr Cosmo's Tape Lab Glasgow, UK

Disappointing Todd Rundgren gigs, Tascam 4 track cassette recorders, animal oddities, The Monkees, cider, children's tv shows from the 80's and sci-fi movies (good and bad) are all ingredients to the sounds of Dr Cosmo's Tape Lab.
