Twice A Man was founded 1981, as an extension of the band Cosmic Overdose.
Was at the start more like an ordinary musicgroup in the synthesizer genre, but has since the middle of the eighties become a project-group, who cooperate with artists from other fields such as film, theatre and dance. Their musical style is hard to pigeonhole, since it stretches through a variety of synthpop, ambient, experimental, tribal and classical music.
Main members through the years have been Karl Gasleben and Dan Söderqvist.
Twice A Mans interest to visualize their music has been one of the characteristics of the group and they appear as pioneers in the context of using advanced technique with an artistic expression. The samples-built sound has played a key role through out the years, often with the additions of vocals and electrical guitar.

March 19, 2010After that "Cosmic overdose" was formed in the late 70´s playing synth and post punk. Two albums, two 7" and a cassette later "Twice a man" was formed with karl, Dan and Lars Falk.
Today they have tryed a lot of styles like: deep house, acid, ambient, synthpop, classical, synth etc. They have made a lot of unreleased material that might not see the light of the day. Since they are very fuzzy about their compositions you will never know if they will release it or not. I have some great demos and live performances in my posession that are really extrodinary. Both the "Kula world" and "Launch music 2004" are really fantastic. A must have for the fans!
