Cosmo's Foggy Cosmic Breakdown was composed by Bobby Prince for Cosmo's Cosmic Adventure (DOS). It makes heavy use of the banjo.

The song was composed as a MIDI file in Sequencer Plus Gold and then rearranged for IMF. Unfortunately, in the conversion process, the quality of the banjo sound was greatly reduced. Luckily, Bobby Prince released the original higher-quality MIDI file which can be downloaded in the game rip. It is also where the full title comes from. The type-0 IMF file is named MBanjo.mni in the Cosmo2.vol file, which is where the title comes from.

Bobby Prince had this to say about the song:

“

I had been itching to do a five string banjo tune, and this one was the result of that itch. The song should be fully playable by a banjo player without any changes. I used a guitar controller (with a banjo tuning) to sequence the song. I am happy that I learned something about the five string, as I needed all the help I could get to put this tune together. The five string banjo is one of the few truly American instruments we have.

The song is played in E2L11 and E2L12.
