“…Clever, catchy, dangerously original, well produced, and largely under the radar. Do not risk not knowing about this stuff."
('Anarchy Monarchy' EP review - BEAT Magazine)

Indie electronic pop act KOSHOWKO is the musical brainchild of Polish born Martin K, philosopher turned music producer. Martin K has spent last couple of years working in close collaboration with various electronic and dance artists. These has included production and remixes for Disco Stu, B(if)tek, Winduptoys, Rupert Owen, Tiatto and Valley Forge.
KOSHOWKO was created as the live arm of Martin K’s production work and it was through the influence of playing to live audiences that the songs further matured and gained their own momentum. For live performances collaborations with numerous guest vocalists and instrumentalists occur, thereby adding a variety of personalities and styles to the live show.
Over the last two years Koshowko performed many gigs in Australia, including at Click Click, First Floor, Ding Dong as well as at festivals such as Fringe, Renaissance, Opoeia, Electundra and St Kilda Festival.
In March 2009 Koshowko’s ‘The Story’ was selected out of over 15,500 entrants to become the finalist of The International Songwriting Competition.
In December 2007 Koshowko returned from a mini-tour of Germany promoting their debut EP 'Anarchy Monarchy'.
'Anarchy Monarchy' received rave reviews in various street press and takes you on a journey from the extremely catchy 'It's Time Now' to the cheeky disco-rock anthem '(Hu)mannequin' to the retro electro infused 'The Story’ to the dub influenced 'Whispers'. The EP ends with a funky remix of 'The Story' by Nicole Skeltys, known for her work as a part of the femme-tech duos B(if)tek and Artificial.
Koshowko have previously released material on several compilations (incl. critically acclaimed ‘In Version: Dub Selections’) as well as their debut single ‘Promise’. More of the Koshowko sound can be heard on their brilliant, collaborative ‘Switched On’, appearing as duets on Winduptoys album and single ‘Double Exposure’.
Other composition credits include the soundtrack for the award-winning documentary 'Revolving Door', recently shown on SBS after making the rounds at various film festivals on 4 continents.
In December 2008 Koshowko teamed up with one of Melbourne’s most talented poets – Rupert Owen which resulted in 'Remix This' - a song soon to be released on the collaborative single. 'Remix This' turns the tables on nightclubbing with a yearning to be mashed, mixed and moved to. Harking back to the verse with music that frees the slaves to the rhythm to have their wicked way with the lyric.
You can also look out for Koshowko’s stunning remixes of Disco Stu and B(if)tek, to be featured on the forthcoming album 'Re Cognition: the Clan Analogue Legacy Collection', as well as the promotional single 'We Think You’re Dishy (Koshowko Remix)'. Both releases are due mid 2009.
