ØRESUND SPACE COLLECTIVE (DK)
SPACE ALERT
When space is the place there's only one place to go. If your only desire is to be captivated in a lush improvised cosmos, your mind altered by the liquid shifts of galaxies, you need to call in the doctor.
Hailing Dr. Space! Come in, Dr. Space!
Known by the terrestrial name of Scott Heller by some earthlings, Dr. Space gathered the Øresund Space Collective togetherback in 2004. With a somewhat rotating cast of musicians from around Denmark and beyond, the idea has maintained the same; to gather a group of players challenging themselves in long and improvised jams, taking advantage of the energy between them and the playful interaction. It’s a masterclass in borderless music. A sonic conversation set for the heart of the sun, presented to the listener in its most natural state.
The Collective soon found themselves leaders of the European psych scene, and it’s fair to say they’ve remained in that position ever since, consistent in releases but gigging only occasionally mostly due to other projects spanning out from their core.
After years of trying without success, we are proud to have at last established interplanetary relations between ourselves and Dr. Space, and proud to bring these forefathers of Scandinavian spaced-out psych to our church.
Please welcome Øresund Space Collective to Høstsabbat 2020.
