Oresund Space Collective
Picks From Space (12cd Box)
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 and festivals all over Europe. Their music is quite diverse and influenced by the ever-changing line up in the collective. 'Picks From Space' was a CD-R series produced by Dr Space between 2005-2007. The collective during this time period was primarily the members of the bands Mantric Muse (DK), Bland Bladen (SE), and The Carpet Knights (SE). There were 12 CDs in the series. Each disc was a mixture of usually one or two rehearsal room jams with the exception of Disc 11, which was unreleased studio material (most but not all of which has appeared now). It is estimated about 50 complete sets were burned and exist. A few volumes exist in more copies as they were more popular and there was a period where you could buy them separately. During the covid period, Dr Space found most of the original recordings and was able to greatly improve the sound on most of the recordings. This is what you hear on this limited edition set starting with some tracks from the very first jam session in April 2004 to one of the last regular jams in 2007. There are some of the best jams the band ever had in this very inspired series of music exploring the early origins of the band. Artwork by David Graham. Limited to 250 copies. All CDs come with a 4-sided digisleeve and are packed together in a box.
