Special thanks to Christian for the great and amazing Space Rock Odyssey 2008! Pity so few people decided to travel for this great event. Anyway, you can hear our spaced out set at this link. More soon..

The new CD, Inside your Head has been sent to the factory today. Looks like the CD will arrive in Austria within 2 weeks and the band will have our copies in 3! It is getting closer. Some cool new pictures of us from Slottsskogen are up on the page now. Thanks Micael. YOu can visit his site as well. Here.

August 18th

You can read the dieary, hear some MP3's or download the whole audience recording from our show last saturday at the great Slottsskogen goes Progressive Festival. Thanks to the great organizers for making such a great day of diverse and cool music. Our set was a very psychedelic. If you have some good pictures, please send them to us for our web page. Here are a few of all the bands including us at the very bottom of the page. Thanks again to all those who came up and talked to us and discovered a new world of music!

August 11th

The complete multitrack soundboard from the Kildemose Festival 2008 is now up at the archive.org at this link. Enjoy. This is not the final version. AT a later date we will release a limited edition CD-R version that has been mixed in more detail, with some reverb on the snare, some compression and also mastered. Thanks to all those who donate and buy our cds. You keep this project alive! ON another note, the Black Tomato is nearly sold out now! Thanks.

Scott and the OSC

August 9th

I have put up two of the jams from the Kildemose Festival 2008 that we recorded on our 24 track hard disc recorder. I have been spending some time mixing these and they are not finished yet but you can at least get an idea of the quality of the sound I hope all our future recording will have. Enjoy and an extra special thanks to all those how have made donations, you know who you are. YOu have helped to make this possible.. Gothenburg Sweden next weekend! See some of you there.

Scott and the OSC

July 29th

The new CD has been delayed but will still be out in August. An official web page is up now for the Space Rock Odessey 2008 festival in Uppsala, Sweden. See the poster below. Nothing new to report now.. oh Yeah.. We have booked the studio again for Oct 3-4th Weekend. I will keep you posted about band line up.

Scott and the OSC

July 16th

We hope everyone is having a great summer. The new CD has been sent off to the pressing plant now and will be with us in a few weeks now. We really hope that you will enjoy this one. I have added it to the shop so you can pre-order the CD and I will mail them out as soon as they arrive in August. No new show announcements at this time. The video from the Loppen concert has been synced with the audio now and we just have to do some menus and editing. Still only the first two sets though. I will keep you all posted on our progress.

Scott and the OSC

June 29th

The OSC are back! The shop is open and the master for "Inside your Head" is due to arrive any moment. OSC played a great, short, early morning set at Kildemose Festival and we will be back next year.It was a cool little festival and really nice people. Special thanks to Jan D for inviting us and Jan for doing the sound for all the bands. We made our first successful 24 track recording (15 tracks actually) and I will start mixing it soon. I will update the diary and put up pictures, etc. soon... NO audience recording was made, sadly. More soon..

Scott

June 9th

The new CD, Inside your Head is now delayed until July as the first mastering was not good enough. It will be pressed in 500 copies. I let you know as soon as you can pre-order the CD. THE SHOP WILL BE CLOSED UNTIL JULY 1ST AS I AM AWAY IN THE USA. Sorry. Kildemose Festival June 28th, is the next gig..

scott and the OSC

May 16th

Wow..we played a great gig last night in Sweden. Pity only like 35 people, including the staff witnessed the event. As usual, it was recorded. You can read about it, see the pics and hear some of the music now. The concert is being uploaded to archive.org now and should be up tomorrow. Sounds is pretty good and a very psychedelic show with four different guitar players playing and giving the jams really different flavors. I was spaced out as usual but I think we all played very well. Enjoy.. The Concert was dedicated to Albert Hoffman.

Scott and the OSC

May 8th

Ok.. the NTSC DVDs are for sale now. Phew.... sorry for the long wait... Artwork for our next CD, "Inside your Head" is also finished now. We just need to hear that mastered version of the CD to make sure it is fine and all will be ready for release... I will keep you posted. Oh yeah.. I was just up in Göteborg jamming with the guys in First band from Outer Space. I made a special web page for the jam session. It was a blast..

Scott and the OSC

April 23rd

Hello! Wow.. Roadburn was totally amazing this year. Not that much space rock but great bands. It was nice to meet some of you there. Keep up the amazing work Walter! You can read my review at Aural Innovations. I handed over the final artwork for our next CD called "Inside your Head". Not sure when it will be out but within a couple of months. Also, the people in Europe can now order the 3 DVD-rs we have produced in PAL format. They are 15€ each or 40€ for the set of 3. The NTSC ones I hope to have next week. You can now order the August 2007 one though as that one is ready. It is a lot of work to burn these, cut out the artwork, number and put them in the cases so I only plan to make 30 of each PAL and NTSC version at this time. If they sell out I might do another pressing after the summer. The DVD of the Loppen gig is going to take some time. I don't know if our show in Malmö on May 15th will be filmed or not. We will try to go for another multitrack recording for sure.

Looks like we will play a great Space Rock Festival in Uppsala, Sweden in August with the Spacious Mind, First Band from Outer Space, and Mass of the Sun! More details as soon as I have them.

Scott and the OSC

April 11th

Hej Folks!

I hope that you are all having a great Spring. I am finishing up the artwork for our next Studio CD which should be out in less than 2 months on the Sulatron label. It is 70mins and one long journey made up of several pieces that were recorded at the same time as the Black Tomato CD and mixed by Henrik Udd. A nice psychedelic journey… It is likely to be called "Inside your Head".

I have also finally got the DVD-Rs ready to sell. The helsinki and two dragens Hule gigs are ready. I have them in PAL format for all three and currently only the August 24th, 2007 Dragens Hule concert in NTSC as we have to re do the menus to make NTSC versions for the Helsinki and first DH concert as we only made PAL versions the first time. The part of the delay was in that the audio was only coming out in stereo and not in 5.1 but we have this solved now (At least on my stereo system).

These are going to be produced in 30 numbered copies. So they will be limited as it takes many hours to burn these DVDs. They come with full artwork and a small story about the gig in a half size slim DVD case (Size of a normal CD case but thinner (7.5mm). The cases are due in next week. They will go on sale the week after that.

We have some gigs coming up and I hope some jam sessions as well with some totally new people to see what happens.. I keep you posted. Thanks once again for your support. A number of you will find your names in the special thanks section of our new CD.

Finally, Magnus and I hope to see some of you at the amazing Roadburn Festival next week!

Scott and the OSC

April 4th, 2008

Hello.. I can now confirm that we will have our first concert in Malmö in 1½ years on thursday May 15th. I hope you will all come out and support us. We will be joined by locals from Carpet Knights, Bland Bladen, Sgt. Sunshine and Drah von Trip. The show will be at Bodoni across the street from KB. We will start at 9:30 and play 2-3 sets. We have to finish by 1:00 as a reggae night club will start.

I also have great news to announce that our next studio CD will be out with in a couple of months on the Sulatron record label. More details and cover artwork and stuff coming soon.

A really cool small CD-R and net label called My Formica Table asked me to put together a compilation of stuff for them and I did. It is around 3hrs of MP3 called Circiling around the Universe. It is a collection of stuff from 2004-2006 and includes the complete original promo CD we used to try unsuccessfully to get some gigs. Enjoy...

March 24th

I hope everyone had a nice Easter weekend. I just finished the Aug 24th 2007 DVD with Kim but something was strange with the audio. Pretty sure we have it sorted out. If you are interested in any of our DVD-Rs that we will soon release and can't play PAL format, please let me know as we might make an NTSC version as well. I have seen the video from our recent Loppen concert and it is really cool. We have the whole 3hr concert on film (only sets 1-2 on DVD at the moment though). I keep you posted. More CD reviews and pics from the last concert are up now as well.

Scott and the OSC

Feb 28th

The complete concert is now up for download at archive.org. Here is the link! The soundboard-audience matrix mix is also now for sale in the shop. This was a really cool show and the sound is really nice. A small problem with a bad connection on the snare mic but you will probably not notice it. Great mix by Sula Basanna. Enjoy.. We got invited to Swamp Room Happening to close one of the night and get to play a long set but sadly they don't have enough money to even pay our way there, so we won't play. Sorry to disappoint our German Fans again.

Scott and the OSC

Feb 24th

First off a huge thanks to all those who came out for our show at Loppen on Friday. You made it amazing. Great thanks for Flowershowers for the wicked cool light show and to Sergio for filming the whole show. I can't wait to see it.. The sound guy did an amazing job so you are in for a treat. I have uploaded some MP3 samples. During the 2nd song of the 1st set there was some mobile phone interference or something so the left channel was totally fucked. I had to make a mono to stereo convert of this track. Sound is a bit strange soundtimes.. Sorry.. as it is a killer jam. Great to have Johan from First Band from Outer Space play with us and also for PIB and Par to help out in the 3rd set... Anyway.. enjoy.. and finally thanks to my great band mates, you guys make the space rock wrold go round and I could not live without you... I need to make music with you.. Thanks for being there...stefan, kaufmann, mogens, thomas, sebastian, magnus, Luz...

Scott and the OSC

Feb 9th

Hello! I just wanted to let you know that I have updated the Discography and added two new fantastic reviews of the Black Tomato. Thanks to Andy G and Phil Jackson at Acid Dragon for being so enthusastic about our music. You guys really understand it.. Thanks.. It looks like we are not going to play in Berlin in March with Oozing Goo as there is not enough money to cover our expenses and we have not other gigs, sadly. Sorry German Fans. Still not gigs for Germany yet. I will soon be updating and changing the shop so you can just use paypal. Soundflare (Band Site) have been amazing and we enjoyed working with them but in order to bring our prices down, we need to do it on our own now. With Soundflare taking a percentage of all the sales and paypal also getting like 10%, we simply can't manage. New shop coming soon...

Jan 17th

Hello OSC Fans and Friends….

2008 is starting off pretty well. We just got our Alesis HD24 (24 track hard disc recorder) and I am setting up a home mixing studio (pictures coming next month) to mix the music we will make in 2008. Looks like we will play a decent number of concerts as well. Here is what is line up and what we are hoping for:

Friday- Feb 22nd, Loppen, Christiania, Denmark (this is our first big local show and we really need to get a good turn out for this gig if we are invited back again. Flowershower will provide a mind blowing 3 projector space projections.. We will play for 3 sets and the line up is the same as we had in Norway except the guitar players and Luz will join..)

Friday- March 21st not settled yet
Sat- March 22, Lovelite, Berlin with Oozing Goo

(these two gigs I just found out about last night and it will be great to play in Berlin again. I am trying to find out what the band line up will be. I will keep you posted.)

April- Göteborg, Sweden (We hope to play on a Friday or Saturday in April before Roadburn). Nothing is settled yet.

May- Talk about going to Finland to play with Hidria Spacefolk but nothing settled yet.

June 29th- Kildemose Festival, Fyn, Denmark (www.kildemosefestival.dk). This is a small festival with like 2-300 people and Causa Sui, Cherry Overdrive, Colour Haze (not confirmed yet) and us as well as several other bands. We will likely close the festival so we can play for 2-3 hrs..

July- No gigs but we have sent out information requesting to play on the Freak Stage at the Berg Herzburg Festival. There is also a great space rock festival in England called Sonic World Festival with Earthling Society, Harvey Bainbridge, Alan Davey, Omnia opera and many more bands. I have written to them. If you know these people please request us.

August- Summer Party at Dragens Hule????

Sept 6th Fehmarn Festival, Germany (this was where Jimi Hendrix played his last concert ever). We don't have a contract but it looks like we will play at this festival!)

As for other things…. We have the Helsinki DVD-R and Dragens Hule 2-07 DVD-Rs finished with sync'd audio and menus but I wait to finish the Dragens Hule 8-24-07 one and then I can offer them up as a package of 3 for a certain price… Hope that is ok. If you really want one now, please let me know and we can work something out..

Sulatron Records (www.sulatron.com) will release a new studio CD in the spring (hopefully April). Dave is working on the final track orders and will get EROC to do a special mastering job.

Steve Hayes of Secret Saucer is currently mixing the material we recorded in Oct 2007 and that will be released in late 2008. NO idea what label. We might release it ourselves. We will see..

Finally, a huge thanks to all of you who made 2007 a great year for us. The Black Tomato has been getting great reviews and everyone seems to love it. It will be hard to top that one. The next two CDs are actually very very different from the Black Tomato. Much shorter pieces of music.

I don't have much more to say…

All the best from the OSC…pass on the word…

Dec 31st

2008 will see the OSC move into another sonic space realm.. Thanks to all those who have donated and bought stuff from our shop. In 2 weeks time we will purchase the Alesis HD24 and will be able to record all of our concerts and jam sessions on 24 tracks. The big work will be mixing this stuff and if you have some experience you are more than welcome to help out. We just ask you send a hard disc and we will send you the tracks and you can make your own mix! It will be a fun experiment.. Anyway.. more soon...

Scott and the OSC

Dec 22nd

Thank you and a Merry Christmas or whatever holiday you celebrate. The OSC had a great year and got to play more concerts than ever in 5 different countries, we have 3 filmed concerts, released a few CDs and made even more friends in the world.. I hope you are ready for 2008.. I just got the rest of the Oslo concert today so you will soon be able to hear and download that. Anyway, two of the 3 DVD-Rs are ready now. I will put them up for sale in after christmas. They will be shipped with artwork, info sheet and small concert poster with the DVD, no case... This saves us all money.. OH yeah.. we had an article in the Eclipsed Magazine and you can read the english translation of the interview here...

Peace... Scott and the OSC

Dec 7rd

We are back from playing in Norway! We had a great time and thanks to everyone (the few of you) who came out to see and support us. Special thanks to Per Helge and Jon Lie in Oslo and Hans, Sigurd and Lars in Trondheim. We will be back next year for sure...despite the hard long 16 hr drive to Trondheim. Damn.. The diaries, pictures and MP3 files are up on the net and the Trondheim concert can be dowloaded from www.archive.org now! I am still working on the soundboard recording and I will wait to put the Oslo concert up at archive until I have the complete 2nd set from Jon Lie. I listened to the Trondheim concert today and it is a great concert. Very psychedelic show with some monster grooves and a totally head filling, mind swirling spaced out nature to it. Be careful.

Scott and the OSC

Nov 17th

I have just updated the Black Tomato reviews page with quite a few more reviews. In addition, our pins and stickers arrived today. YOu can only order these with another item in the shop, sorry to say. The Sitcker is really nice quality black and white glossy. We are preparing for our two gigs in Norway. I hope that some people will turn out for the gigs.. I have some really bad news. Our current drummer PIB has reinjured his back and is in quite serious condition. He will not be playing drums again anytime soon, sadly. I hope everyone will wish him a quick recovery, but I think it will be quie a long recovery, Anyway, our old drummer, Kaufmann from the band Bland Bladen will fill in now for a while. It also seems like we will have some jams with the ex-members of Drahk Von Trip as well soon.

Scott and the OSC

Nov 4th

Eclipsed Magazine in Germany has an edit of the end of the Black Tomato on the CD in the lastest issue. The CD also features Ozric Tentacles and baby Woodrose among others. The next double issue (DEC-Jan) will have an interview with me and some of the others. I will post the link here, if it comes on line. If not, you will be able to read the English version on our web page. Anyway, they are having a vote for best song on the CD and we are in the lead at the moment but please take a minute and go over and vote for us. It will really help us, perhaps.. Here is the link... Thanks,

Scott and the OSC

Oct 24th

I had a great trip to England and saw some cool bands. Just wanted to let you know that I have updated the Reviews page and add a lot of the reviews (all we could find so far on the internet) to the Black Tomato reviews page. Check them out....see if you agree or not?? We are still working on the DVD stuff so please be patient... I think that is all for now.. Thanks to everyone who is buying our new CD..

Scott and the OSC

Oct 13th

I have added the OSC Discography in a PDF format for people to download. In addition, I have made some PDF files of some of our concert posters that you can download in high quality PDF files. Though some of you who have never been able to see us live might like some of these. Also, you can download some promo flyers in PDF format if you want to help promote us. Thanks.... Also, I expect to have the Picks from Space Vol 11 and 12 finished in the next week. Phew... I can also tell you that with the help of Kim, we have now made a DVD with menus of the first 50 mins of the Helsinki concert with our audience audio sync'd up for better sound. It is pretty cool to watch as the visuals (although a bit dark at times) are really cool and it was a spaced out but not very exciting show. Not sure if we will sell this one or just put a clip or two on the DVD-R we will sell. Write me if you are interested. We try to finish the Feb 2007 Dragens Hule DVD next weds before I go to England. We also will make one out of the 100 mins we have filmed from Dragens Hule Aug 2007, once I get the transfer back.

scott and the OSC

Oct 7th

Phew.... I am tired. For us and also you fans of what we are doing, we just recorded 7 hrs of jams in the studio this weekend. Check out the diary and the pictures on the Session 37 links. IT was a great time and a fun to bring a nearly totally new band into the studio and see what happens.. It was amazing to have KG from Siena Root come down from Stockholm to play guitar, hammond and sitar! We played some great groovy jams and not as spaced out. I think once we sort through all of it and it is mixed, we will have a couple hours of great stuff. This stuff won't be released until April or May next year though. I will put some samples up that I recorded from the recording room with my Edirol shortly so you can hear some of the stuff.. Thanks again for buying the Black Tomato CD and if you are interested in helping us release our music on vinyl, please get in contact. Time to sleep......

Scott and the OSC

Sept 30th

Anyone like to see the Øresund Space Collective on vinyl? I would but we just can't afford it. I am looking for some people who might be interested in helping us to put our material out on vinyl. I have the quotes for putting It's all about Delay out on as a 4LP set in a glossy gatefold sleeve (2 records in each side) as well as releasing our debut on a double vinyl. We will probably remaster It's all about Delay specically for vinyl, if we raise the money. Please email me if you are interested. IT will probably take about 3-6 months before you would get your money back. You will of course get free copies of the records.

Sept 22nd

Just a quick note to say that our debut CD is officially sold out now. Transubstans and us do not have any more copies. Thanks to all of those who bought one of the 500 hand numbered editions. You own a rarity now. IF the CD is repressed it will not be in a hand numbered edition. I hope that we can release this next on a double vinyl record though in 2008. Just not sure there is the demand for it.

Scott and the OSC

Sept 20th

Ok... the first videos of the OSC from Session 29 is now up at You Tube. Check it out from our sessions pages in session 29 or search Oresund Space Collective at You Tube.. .Also are some studio clips from Session 27 (in the diary) and a few shots from my digital camera (Thanks Rene) from Plauen, Germany, Enjoy. Some of this you will see again on our DVD but in better quality and the concert stuff will be sync'd with our better audio sources.

Scott and the OSC

Sept 16th

I wanted to let everyone know that if you order something from our shop, you will get your name in our next CD as a special thanks for the support you give us. It is this money that allows this project to go into the studio on a regular basis and keep putting out cool music. In other news, we will not play at New Years Eve party but we have been invited to Italy but I don't know when this will happen. I keep you posted. We also hope to have Picks from Space Vol 11 and 12 finished soon. Vol 11 will be the studio outtakes from our first, It's all about Delay and possibly the full length 13 minute version of Viking Cleaner. NOt sure yet. Vol 12 will include the best of some of the recent rehearsal room sessions. We also have 12 tracks (110mins) of stuff from the Black Tomato sessions that I am working with. Finally, I will get some video up on You Tube by next friday...

Scott and the OSC

Sept 4th

The new CD is out! The first reviews are up on the web page in the Reviews link on the left side of the page. Come see what the critics think so far! I have also added some reviews of the Picks from Space as well. I have updated the concerts as well. We have some cool events coming up and maybe a NYE party!

Scott and the OSC

August 25th

CD release party was a blast despite few people. A few samples are up and the pics and diary as well. Enjoy this very psychedelic show. Show is being uploaded to archive.org now!

Scott and the OSC

August 22nd

The CD is due to arrive on Friday morning just in time for the party. Those who have pre-ordered the CD, it will be mailed on friday or Saturday. I know you all will love this one. People who have ordered stuff recently have probably noticed a postage charge being added now. The price to mail things from Denmark has become so expensive, we had no choice but to add a small charge. Really sorry...It is especially hard for you in the USA as the dollar is so weak versus the British Pound at this time..

In other news, we are trying to set up a special jam session with Causa Sui in November and a show with Damo Suuzki in late Jan or early Feb.

All the best... Scott and the OSC

August 10th

Hello... the artwork and CD master was turned in last week and we are praying we will have the CDs on August 24th for the CD release party. IT looks pretty good. Anyway, here is a peak at what the cover of the CD will look like:

If you go to the shop you can pre-order the CD now. Thanks to all those who have to help us out. We might be playing in Finland on Sept 15th at the Earthdance festival. Looks like we have a gig in Trondheim on Dec 1st as well. Looking to get a gig in Hamar or Lillehammer on Nov 30th. If you have any contacts, please write... Hope to see some of you at Dragens Hule in 2 weeks...

Scott and the OSC

August 1st

In August, we will release our 3rd CD as a deluxe digipack, limited to 1000 copies. It is will be released and distributed via Transubstans Records as have all our releases. It features Rumble (38mins), The Black Tomato (32mins) and Viking Cleaner (6 mins) for a total of 77 minutes. I think you will find that these are some of our coolest journeys in sound…. I know you will like them. The sound production is the best we have ever had (and I thought our other CDs had amazing sound!). Thanks to Henrik Udd for the amazing mix and Hans for the mastering job!

October 5-6th, the new line up of the Øresund Space Collective will hit the studio to record the next CD. The guys who from Mantric Muse are taking a break from playing (but not supporting and helping us), while Stefan and Thomas from Gas Giant are stepping up to fly out into space with us…. We will also have a special guest playing synthesizers on the session, but you will have to wait to read about it in the diary! Sorry..

We have about 90mins of some really cool video from our last Dragens Hule show in Feb and it is likely that Steen will video tape our next show as well. I hope from this we can put together some sort of DVD by the end of the year. You will have to wait a little longer, sorry..

As for live gigs… here is what is on the agenda at the moment:

August 24th CD release Party- Dragens Hule, Copenhagen
Sept- Jam Session
Oct 18th- Possible gig in Malmo, Sweden
Nov 29th- Alternative Maiden Club, Oslo
Nov 30th- Gig in Göteborg, Sweden or Trondheim, Norway
Dec 31st- OSC New Years Eve Party????? Just an idea right now..

It is possible that Ozric Tentacles will play in Denmark in November and we might play with them. It is also possible that Acid Mothers Temple will play and we will try to set up a gig together.. None of this is confirmed now.. Just rumors of things that might or might not happen.

Finally, starting around August 5th, we will start to accept pre-orders for the Black Tomato CD. We would be very grateful to those who pre-order the CD, as this money will go into our pockets and help to finance our next studio session, further mixing of more material, our hard disc recorder so we can make multitrack recordings of all of our shows and jams, etc… I promise, I have the envelopes ready and will mail them out as soon as I have them in my hands!

Also, we have a new pressing of t-shirts in and we have XXL, XL, L, M, S and XS due next week… Phew….

I will also try to finish up Picks from Space Vol. 11 (It’s all about Delay outtakes). We have a final mix of Jam 9 and 14, which we had no space on the double CD for. Our last jam of the night, 22, was also quite cool but a bit rough in the middle and it might be included as well. We also might add the full length Tony Blair witch crocket project, as this was edited down to 15 minutes on the CD but runs a full 25 minutes and the last few minutes is really cool…

Finally, it looks like Steve Hayes (Hawkwind, Secret Saucer, etc..) will doing some mixing of the material left over from our last studio session that Henrik Udd did not have time to mix… This is not certain yet but there is another 60-70mins of some really excellent material.. shorter jams…

Thanks again to all of you who have and continue to support us. The Spaceship OSC could never fly and make it without the support you all put into us… Thanks once again and I hope we can soon unleash a lot more cool spaced out jam music for some great adventures to the other side………………

Scott and the OSC

July 11th

The new shirts (Same design) have been ordered so if you want XXL, XL, S or XS, we should have these in 3 weeks. Starting around august 1st we will begin to take preorders in the shop for the new CD, the Black Tomato. We are finishing up the artwork now and the CD will be mastered this weekend. Those who preorder it will have it mailed out as soon as I have it in my hands from the CD factory. Our show in Malmö next weekend is cancelled but we wil still have the CD release party on August 24th. It will be a special show..

We had a really great time in Germany and really want to thank Gerd, Beate and all the people from the German Grateful Dead Heads for such a wonderful weekend of music. The venue, music and the people were all amazing... Thank you so much.. We really hope that we will be able to play for you again. Also, a big thanks to our friend Dave, who played with us. IT was so awesome.. The diaries are up and some photos as well. IF you have any good photos from the gig, please send them to me. Some audio from all the sets is up as well. Great sound but almost no synthesizers. Sorry.. Look for it on archive.org in the next 2 days. I am starting to upload soon.

Scott and the OSC

We are heading down to the Playing in the Band Festival IX later today to perform 2 concerts in Plauen, Germany. IT should be a really great time and we are so happy to be able to play for some of our German fans! We have just made a deal in Hungary and our music will shortly be available via the web at a place called Dalok.hu. Our next CD, The Black Tomato will soon be mastered up in Göteborg, Sweden and we hope to have it out in late August. More on this soon. I will let you know when the diary, pics and music are up. Thanks again to those who have donated some money for the free MP3 files.. Oh yeah.. every Monday night you can hear a great space-psychedelic rock radio show now in streaming audio. Check it out. Carry is a cool DJ and plays a lot of OSC stuff. Click here!

Last night we had our 33rd session and the first with a new drummer named PIB. It was pretty damn cool. Half of this line up is what will go and play the gigs in Plauen in 2 weeks. We are really looking forward to coming to Germany. IT is still not certain that Dr. Space will go but hopefully. Anyway, enjoy the whole short session.

April 13th

Last night we played the last show of our small tour to a small but enthusastic crowd. IT had quite a different flavor from the other shows as we had a different drummer, bass player and a one different guitarist. It is our shortest show ever at only 57 minutes but you can hear and download the whole thing here. Lots of cool pictures on the web site as well. Thanks to all those who came out. Siena Root put on an amazing show. Wow.. what a killer band. Don't miss them at Roadburn if you are going or on the rest of their Europe tour. I hope that perhaps next year we get a chance to space you all out at Roadburn. Magnus and I from the OSC will be in Holland. Say hello!

April 10th

We are back to Denmark and have one more gig on our first small tour ever. It was been a great time and a good success. Thanks to all the great people in Siena Root for saving the day and taking such great care of us in Stockholm. Also, thanks to Santtu and Hidria Spacefolk for the amazing night in Helsinki! Finally, a speciak thanks to all of those who made the effort to come out and support us and listen and buy merchandise at our gigs. We really appreciate it. Great to meet you Rob (who flew all the way from England for the gig), I look forward to us meeting again. If you took any great pictures, please send them to us for the web site! THe diary and some music samples are up now and a few pictures as well. I have also updated the reviews section, biography, added a small page on the mixing of the new CD, etc.. and should let you know that there is a great interview and article on us in the new issue of Bad Acid. IT is an amazing magazine covering all kinds of non-mainstream space, psych, doom, stoner and experimental music. Comes with a DVD loaded with video and MP3 files. Check it out!

April 4th

Urgent!! We have had a venue change for the Stockholm gig after the fucking promoter cancelled the show yesterday. We will now play at a place called Hemliga Trädgården. We will play with only Siena Root and we will play last and jam like hell. The address is: Johannesbergssgatan 6 i midsommerkkransen. Hope you can find the place and please come out and support us. Sorry about the last minute change.

Scott and the OSC

April 1st, 2007

The OSC is about to go out on our first small tour playing in Stockholm, Helsinki and Copenhagen all in one week! We hope that we get to meet with many of those whom we have corresponded with. Please come out and support us. We look forward to playing with Siena Root at two of the gigs and also our good friends, Hidria Spacefolk! Please bring your recording gear, video cameras, and cameras and document our gig. If you get a some good pics, video or recordings, please send them to us.

Also, the OSC is looking to find someone in southern Sweden or the Copenhagen area who would like to work with us on developing an elaborate visual show. If you are into visual arts, projections, movies and want a platform to experiment, please contact us. Also, we are in real need of a full time sound person for our gigs. We can not offer any money at this time but as we grow, we plan to include this in our expenses.

See you on the road next week!

March 26th

Ok....OSC fans.. be prepared to get blasted! Magnus and myself spend 2 long days with mix master UDD in Göteborg this weekend and walked away with 3 massive mind blowing tracks. The sound is huge and psychedelic. I think you guys are all going to like it. We still have to finish the drum sound and do the mastering and final edits so it can fit onto a 80 min CD, so it will still be a bit before you can all aurally taste the BLACK TOMATO... Be patient and in the meantime, please try to come out and support us on our 3 concerts in April.

Our fans are the best and this music is always for you!

Scott and the OSC

March 10th

Magnus and I will go up to Göteborg on March 23-24th to do the final mixing on our new CD with Henrik Udd. The new OSC CD will be called Black Tomato. It will feature only 3 tracks (Black Tomato, Rumble, Viking Cleaner). We are thinking about postponing the release beyond May but we are not sure yet. There will be some major changes in the OSC line up after the April concerts, which will be the last with the core of what has been OSC since nearly the beginning but no worries. We still have killer players (Tobias, Jocke, Mogens, Stefan, Thomas, Luz, Kaufmann (if his back is well) to keep the OSC freak flag flying..Some people just need a break from playing this intense music to recharge their creative juices.. all have promised to come back...

There is now a web site up for the Playing in the Band Festival IX in Plauen. We will play for 2hrs on the friday night and 1½ hrs on the saturday night. I should also say that if you want our first CD in the hand numbered edition, you should order now, as we have only 10 copies left and the record company has about the same.

Scott and the OSC

March 5th

Hello... Hope you are all doing well. We will play at Nymble in Stockholm on Friday April 6th with Sideburn (CD Release party!). We also will play two shows in Germany in May in Plauen on the 18th and 19th! This will be quite exciting to play our first shows in Germany! Our good friend Sula Bassana will join us as well. Thanks to those who are ordering CDs from the show and making donations. I hope we will soon have time to get some of the video footage up on the net... More info soon..

Feb 15th

I hope some of you are enjoying the latest concerts. I have had some problems with the files that I uploaded because I did not put the right file extension on the files.I thought that I had fixed it but I have not. It won't generate the MP3 files of the little players. I have taken the show down and it goes up again now and I hope it will be uploaded by tomorrow morning (Copenhagen time). We will see. In the meantime, I will put the rest of the show up as MP3's on our site so you can hear it. Sorry guys... Also, we might have another concert confirmed shortly.

Feb 10th

Thanks to everyone who came out to our winter party and everyone who played as well. IT was one of our coolest concert sessions (first 2 sets) and some of it was filmed. The projections were really cool and everyone seem to have a good time. Warning.. very psychedelic concert.. Wow.. Samples from the 1st and 2nd set are up on our site and the concert is being uploaded to archive.org now. Enjoy. Lots of cool pics as well.

Scott and the OSC

Feb 6th

We are featured on the cover of the new issue of Sequences Magazine out of England. Great that they used Ed's cool artwork. We have 3 more reviews of the new CD also up on the web page. Go to the fast links on the left.. Hope a lot of people will show up on Friday. It is going to be a great show.

Feb 3rd

I hope you all are enjoying the high download speeds we now have. Thanks Tobias! Looks like we are pretty close to have the gig set up in Stockholm now. Please come out and support us for our winter party at Dragens Hule on next friday, Feb. 9th. It is going to be amazing. We will have a lot of guest musicians from Drahk von Trip and Gas Giant. 3 guitars, 3 synths, violin, bass, drums, percussion.. Monster space orchestra! We will record everything so those who can't be there in person can hear it. At least one set will be video taped as well.

Jan 17th

Good and bad news.. First the good. We will play at Studenterhuset in Copenhagen on Thursday, April 12th with Siena Root! This will sort of complete a mini- Scandinavian tour with Stockholm (we hope), Helsinki and Copenhagen all in the same week! The bad news is that the bastards at the Danish Post have raised the prices for mailing packages. What used to cost 29kr now costs 45! That is outragreous, but I have had to add postage costs to the shop now. We just can't absorb that kind of 30% increase. Sorry folks.. We still try to sell things as cheap as we can..

Scott and the OSC

Jan 16th

Just to let you all know, we are moving to a new server (costs us a bit more) but we will have a 100Mbit download speed so it should speed things up a lot for all you music downloaders out there... Keep on listening... and donating occasionally...

Scott and the OSC

Jan 13th

We had a pretty cool and interesting jam last night with an unexpected line up but it rocks.. Heavy Psychedelic space rock.. Session 28 is up and flying.. Enjoy.. There are some pics and I will write up some more detail in the diary soon. Also, please keep the nice donations coming, the few that do, as every little helps and your name will go on our next CD, if you donate..

Scott and the OSC

Jan 11th

I have just updated the web shop selling some CDs by some good friends of ours. We have some copies of Hidria Spacefolk- Balansia, 3 CDs by Korai Öröm as well as the Copenhagen Space Rock Festival Compilation CD. I also added a couple of great new reviews of "Its all abour Delay". I was searching the web and can see a lot of web radio shows are playing tracks from the CD, which is really great. Remember to check the web site on Saturday to hear and download some tracks from our jam tomorrow! Thanks for those who are donating to help us out to by a hard disc recorder to make multitrack recordings of all the sessions!

Jan 5th, 2007

Wow.. the good and the bad all happening at the same time. First the good news. We will play our first gig ever in Finland on Sunday April 8th at Semifinal in Helsinki with our great friends, Hidria Spacefolk! This is going to be an amazing night. They have a new CD out next month as well. We will probably also have a winter party in Copenhagen on Feb 9th or 10th and we are working on a gig in Malmö in March. We will have our first jam session of the year next friday in Malmo and my good friend and amazing guitarist from Gas Giant, who I played with some years back, will finally join us. Watch out for some wicked space jamming! Look for some different names in the jam session lists as some members will take a little break and we will bring in some fresh blood. As for the bad news, I am pretty down about my cousin, Cliff Heller, who died in a skydiving accident on Dec. 30th. We are really good friennds and shared a lot of great concert experiences together (Ozrics, Hawkwind, Eat Static, Funkadelic all in NYC) and everywhere I lived in the world, he always came to visit and do things. I will miss him a lot. Have a good weekend.

Also, we just were picked as CD of the month at Acid Dragon in the UK. Also some more fantastic reviews have come out that I will add to the page this weekend. Finally, we will have a winter party at the Dragens Hule. Just us and some cosmic projections for 3hrs of space rock.. Please come out and support us!

Our latest CD, It's all about Delay, the promos are finally out and about so more reviews should start to come in. Also, the CD is available at Aural Innovations in the USA, CD Baby, Sulatron, Record Heaven and us as well as many others now. We will have a jam session in early January and hopefully a concert in Feburary. Also, we don't know what the title will be up our next CD will be released in May.

Well, we did not win any awards at the Italian Prog Awards but it was still nice to be recognized. I have added a lot more pictures from the CD release party (Session 26). Thanks to Sonja and Anders for providing the new pictures. I have also almost completed the artwork for the soundboard recording of the Release party that we will see via the shop. A very good quality soundboard and a nice performance from us. Check in a few days. Our CD is now available from Aural Innovations in the USA now. The promo CDs are being sent out this week to all the radio, magazines and more distributors. Look for more reviews soon. Let's hope that people like it as much as the first reviews. We may have a concert on Jan 25th but this is up in the air right now and we are working on confirming a show in Helsinki on Saturday April 7th with Hidria Spacefolk! That will be a monster space rock night for sure!

Wow... that is all I can say... We had an amazing weekend in the studio with Lars and Henrik and recorded over 6½hrs of material. Read the diary and check out the pictures. I will work on making them smaller. They look great but they are too big and load slowly now. Sorry... I recorded some stuff inside the recording room with my Edirol and will give you all a taste of 2 or 3 jams... Also, we shot about an hour of video in the studio, which will appear at some point. The concert from last thursday is up at the archive.org now. Check it out. Thanks to Per, we also have a soundboard source, which we will sell through the shop in some weeks. IT is missing some of jam 3.

tired... good night from Space Station OSC..

Thanks to Siena Root, Ralph, the staff at Studenterhuset and all the fans who came out for the great show. We really appreciate it! Great to see so many of my friends and a couple of work colleagues. Show was great. See the diary. Samples coming soon. We hit the studio in a few hours. MOre later.

A million thanks to all of the people who have been buying out new CD. We are all very happy with the final product and so far the feedback we have received from you, our fans, is overwhelmingly postitive. We are so happy that we lived up to and hopefully exceeded what you had expected from us. Thank you! Also, this thursday, Nov 9th, we will have our local CD release party with our friends, Siena Root from Stockholm at the Studenterhuset in central Copenhagen! I hope a lot of our local fans will turn out to support us on this night. Then, the next day we go into the studio for 2 days to record our next studio CD. We will record at the Black Tornado Studios again with Lars Lundholm, as well as having Henrik Udd assisting and doing the mixing of our next CD. Henrik has worked with our friends, First Band from Outer Space from Göteborg, Sweden. Check out the diary for pictures and updates about the studio. Talk to you next week..

Thanks to all our Swedish friends who came out and helped us out with the party in Malmö on Friday. It was a bit of a downer that so few people (30 or so) showed up and almost no one was into the music. We have the coolest light show and stuff going on but no people. It was a totally dead vibe. Anyway, please check out the music. It was a bitch to EQ and get a decent sound and a damn dog fucked up the recording on the 2nd set (See diary for more details). Sound is the best I could manage in this concrete room with no people or anything to absorb the sound. Some nice pics of the evening by Kaufmann are up on the web.. See you on NOv 9th, for a real party, this time...

It was very sad news to hear that Pip Pyle left for the great gig in the sky. I got to see him play drums 2 times with GONG in 1996. Great concerts. He will be sadly missed. We are still doing the final mixing of the CD but will be finished soon. We will have news of two upcoming concerts soon, see the concert links for the tentative dates. I hope that next week I can put up the final track listing for our new CD for our fans. Looks like we will have a jam session in Malmö on next Saturday (9th).

We are hoping to have "It's all about Delay" released in October. We will keep you posted on any news. We will have an interview coming out in the July issue of the Norwegian magazine, Tarkus. I also just did an interview with Free City Media. I don't know when that will be out.

Melo's Prog Bazaar is featuring a very special interactive forum where you can actively participate in the discussion of specific artists albums. OSC will be the 2nd band (last 2 weeks in June, I believe).

Hello Everyone!

I just wanted to let people know that the Oresund Space Collective are half way finished with mixing our next double CD called "It's all about Delay" with cover artwork by Ed Unitsky. It is sounding great with tracks ranging from 5 minutes to 25 minutes, with most around 10 minutes long. The new CD is really different from our first one and a lot more upbeat and diverse in the sounds. I think our fans will for sure like this one a lot.

We have just sent off a track called Waaaaaah for the Music Street Journal Compilation CD that will be out later this year with artists, Erik Norlander, Lana Lane, Don Schiff and Gak Omak and the OSC. I am not sure when it is coming out.

I have also completed compiling the latest 3 volumes in our best of jam session CD-R series called Picks from Space. Volumes 8-10 should be ready in end of next week. I am just working on the last of the artwork. We will have a good price deal for those who buy all 3 at once.

We will play our only concert this summer on the weekend of July 21-22nd at our usual place, the Dragens Hule. We hope to be joined by the amazing First Band From Outer Space, who have a killer new CD out very soon. We will make a monster jam session out of it as well.

Thanks for the support and keep downloading. Scott and the OSC

May 22nd

I mailed off our track (Waaaaaah) for the Music Street Journal Compilation today and can confirm that we will have a summer party gig at the Dragens Hule on either July 21st or 22nd, probably with the First Band from Outer Space. I can also tell you that I have heard 3 of the mixes that Magnus has done of our new material and it sounds really really cool. I think everyone out there is really going to love this new record. THere are so many cool elements and you can hear it over and over still discover new things in the music each time. The Ed Unitsky artwork is also amazing.. I keep you posted! Over and out..

We are still here. Concert at the end of May did not work out. Magnus is busy mixing and we think we will be finished mixing the material for the new CD by the end of this month. IT is sounding really great. The new Alien Planetscapes web site is up, so go check out some history! We will soon contribute a track to a new benefit CD for Music Street Journal features the OSC, Erik Norlander, Lana Lane, Don Schiff and Gak Omak. Jam session 21 was cancelled. Sorry... We have not yet planned the next one as people are very busy at this time and we are focusing on finishing this new studio CD as we have already booked the studio to record the next one (November).

IT is with deep sadness that I that I should inform you that my good friend, mentor in space rock and the founder of Alien Planetscapes, Doug Walker, has died of a heart attack this week. I was just working with him on an Alien Planetscapes web page. I am pretty devastated but one must move forward. Doug was very encouraging and liked the stuff that the OSC was doing a lot. IT is a pity we will never get to jam together but when we jam this saturday, it will be with Doug in mind. Our next CD, which we are mixing right now is dedicated to his memory..

We are about to start mixing some of the tracks that we have decided on are the coolest from the Session. Magnus, one of the guitarist will do the job on his computer. He is busy working on his own band, Mantric Muse's Kap Næb CD, which is getting closer to finished all the time. I have added some more CD reviews to the reviews linik as well. Remember the Roadburn Festival in only 1 month away and it is not sold out yet. What an amazing line up of bands all under one roof in one night... Check it out. SOme of us are going. The concert at Dragens Hule is postponed. No new date is set. Sorry folks... Early next week, two samples from our studio session will appear, so look out...

Well, I think all the OSC fans out there are going to be blown away by the music we made this weekend! We recorded 6 hrs and 53 minutes of jams to 24 channels. The tape was running so to speak when nothing was happening sometimes, so in the end we probably only have about 6 hrs or so of jams, only. The sound is totally amazing and have the PA set up in the recording room worked so much better for most everyone and we really played some killer hypnotic grooves and the sound is mind blowing... We have enough material to make at least a double CD, perhaps more.. We will spend the next few weeks digesting this stuff and trying to figure out what pieces we should spend the time to mix properly. We will keep you posted and probably put up a few teasers for you as well.. Another CD review has just been posted on the web so check it out at Melo's Close to the Edge site!

I need some rest now....oh yeah.. read the diary and I will put up the pictures in a few days when I get them from the guys!

I just added 3 more of the multitrack mixes from our last session. The Drahk OSC Space we only have as a multitrack mix as I accidently had the minidisc on pause and missed this jam. I think the multitrack mix is strange... give it a try...see if you like it.. Also, two more reviews of our CD have been added to the web page.

Wow... that is all I can say... 18.09GB of MP3 files downloaded from our site in Feb. Glad you folks are enjoying the jams. We will keep them coming. I now have the multi track discs and will try to put up some more from this session. Unfortunately, the files were all accidently deleted so this is the only mix we will ever get and some stuff was lost for good as it was never burned down onto CD. Oh well, such is life... THe shop is back open and I will deal with some of the orders that have come in. We hit the studio next weekend to make our next CD. I will have a diary up soon after to let you know how it went.

Feb 11th

Ok... we had a very successful Jam 19 in Malmö last night and played for like 3½ hours and it was all captured on multi tracks (see diary for more details). I have put up some of the mini-disc recordings while we wait for the multitrack mix from Jonas. It was great to be joined by our friends Tobias (Carpet Knights), Kaufmann and Jonas (Kaabel) and Göran (Drahk von Trip). Also, the shop will be closed from Feb 17th-March 1st.. A few more reviews of the CD had been added to the site as well. Enjoy the space... Now up, the first multi-track edit of Comsic Reggae. Check it out from the Sessions page link!

We would like to thank everyone who came to our CD release party and bought the CD and or a t-shirt and made this such a special night. Despite the ice and -5C temperature, about 60 people came out and saw us fly into space for our 3rd live concert. We played 3 sets lasting a little over 3 hours total. It was some of our best stuff ever! A few samples are up now and the whole concert will be up on archive.org in a few days. Thanks again to JOhnny for all the support. The CD is out now, so please buy it and support us.. Also, the t-shirts run a little large in size, so please keep this in mind when you order... Also, Aural Innovations has just put up an OSC radio special where you can hear two of the tracks from the new CD as well as several great tracks from our Pick in Space series, which I am burning now until we can afford to have them made properly.

Ok... I picked up the CDs yesterday and they look and sound great. I am in the process of numbering them all by hand. The T-shirts have also arrived and we will have them at our concert on saturday. Please come join us at the Dragens Hule to celebrate the release of the CD. We will play a full night of music as well. More reviews of the CD are coming in all the time and I have added them to the fast link page on the left side. In Europe, the fastest way to get a hold of the CD is to order it direct from Record Heaven for 18€, includes postage worldwide. It will soon be sold in the USA at Aural Innovations and in France by Musea, and distributed in Europe by Clearspot. Thanks for the support.

It was a tough day but it was worth it. We recorded on 24 tracks 2½ hours of material in 4 jams.
An appropriate title for the session might be Space Crusing... We were crusing a lot and not flying much but the sound
and the feel and most importantly, the textures we created were amazing. Very spacey.

The synthesizers fly all over the space and are amazing.. Read the diary for more
details on the equipment we used, microphones, etc..

We are sad to announce that Ola had an accident on Midsummers Night and injured his thumb.
Please wish him a quick recovery! This will probably make it difficult for him to play the Fender Rhoades
at our recording session but we will see. We are very psyched for recording our first CD next weekend. Look out for the
diary soon after and pictures of how it went.

Thanks to INZECT for making us some cool logos and look out for a new web page in a few months!

I have completely updated the web page today and have tried to make
it more simple in some ways by grouping common stuff altogether.
Check out our Session 11 jams.
This was an amazing night with everyone really flying!

In other news, we have our 2nd concert on saturday, May 28th at Dragens Hule. In addition,
we will go into the recording studio to record our first CD on saturday July 16th. Look out for pictures and a
diary about the recording session.

Fnally, it looks like we might play at festival in Sweden in August and we are looking into some
opening gigs for the Ozric Tentacles in Denmark in the Autumn. We will keep you posted!

Enjoy the jams...
