Øresund Space Collective – Espa​ç​o (2024)

“In Sept 2023, the band gathered once again in Portugal and laid down 13hrs of magical music over a week. There was a lot of experimenting and many ideas flowed. These two pieces of music were very special and meditative in someways. Umma reminded me of 1970 Pink Floyd in many ways, thus the title. Birim Magic, starts with Tito and Hasse playing the African instrument, Birim-bau and then heads off into its own universe over the course of over 40mins. This is a very spacey musical adventure and totally unique in the bands catalog.”

Moonseeds – Moonseeds (2024)

“In the year 2018 the australian psych-rockband SEEDY JEEZUS was doing their european tour. After the tour their guitar player Lex Waterreus spent some days at the home of Komet Lulu and Sula Bassana (both back then of ELECTRIC MOON), and what would be nicer as to record some jamsessions. Three longer pieces got recorded and Sula did some editings and mixings.Then some years passed by…In late 2023 Lex visited Sula at his new home after another SEEDY JEEZUS tour and they did some spare overdubs and finished the album.”

The Cosmic Dead – Infinite Peaks (2024)

“A new record from Glasgow-based space rock group! Infinite Peaks is the long awaited ninth full length album from tumultuous Glaswegian astral travellers The Cosmic Dead. The album features two extended incantations recorded and mixed at Glasgow’s 16 Ohm Recording Studio. Their exploratory compositions often reach levels of sonic destruction through reflective repetition and visceral harmony.”

Øresund Space Collective – Carnival in Portugal (2023)

“Oresund Space Collective (OSC), formed in 2004, is a totally improvising Scandinavian space rock band and has been releasing albums since 2006. The band has played concerts & festivals all over Europe. Their music is quite diverse and influenced by the ever-changing line up in the collective. The music on this release has more of a world music vibe from the funky ‘Funkafide’ to the Santana inspired ‘Ognijj’ to the reggae of ‘Ganja Anja’, intense jazz ‘Snake Fucker’ and chilled out ‘Floating Rings Around Time’. An extremely varied but rewarding musical journey, featuring extraordinary playing from top musicians in the prog world.”

The Spacelords – Nectar of the Gods (2023)

“With “Nectar Of The Gods” The Spacelords take their unmistakable sound to new, astral heights. The Spacelords – the galactic grooving space rockers in the stoner space-time continuum – grace our solar sound system with their latest album… The constantly reinventing, deeply interwoven interplay of the trio captivates the stoner, space and kraut rock community with its devoted joy of playing, as only true friends can muster.”

Zone Six – Full Mental Jacket (2023)

“Zone Six got founded in August 1997, when Dave (also known as Sula Bassana) got a concert request for Liquid Visions, but this band was not able to play the show. So Dave had the idea to form a new band just for this: Zone Six. The idea behind was to play long tranceful space- and acid-rock improvisations. Now, 26 years later, this project is still existing and has a new, dark and powerful album out. The basics were recorded within the first three days of March 2022, influenced/affected by the news of the just started Russian war on Ukraine. It took more than a year to do some overdubs and produce the whole album out of these jams/composings (in a few days/weekends).”

So spread your wings, join the chorus, and embark on an unforgettable feathered voyage with “Geierspeis” by Kanoi & KRPL. It’s a beak-tastic experience you won’t want to miss!”

Øresund Space Collective – Everyone is Evil (2023)

““Everyone Is Evil” is the Band’s 40th release. This session took place in Sept. 2022 and collected up a number of top musicians to create several albums of progressive, psychedelic, world music and space rock! The track “Everyone is Evil” is an epic 64min track that takes the listener on an intense journey through different universes and a bit of CAN, Magma and other bands but in their own unique way. “Everyone is Good” brings you down to a more calm state in this repetitive, meditative exploration into space music.”

Bandcamp

Shem – III (2023)

“Shem is a collective of musicians aiming to perform improvisational sound pieces influenced by a wide range of eras and strains of psychedelic and progressive music. Through combining elements of ambient, drone, psych and space rock into epic, reverb drenched jams, Shem try to reach out beyond the established boundaries of musical conventions to create their own realm of sonic experimentation. Constantly moving and shape-shifting within this realm, their third album sees the German collective explore further the meditative and ritualistic aspects of ambient music, the sonic outbursts of space rock and the atavistic rhythms of Krautrock.”
