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.”

Modoki – Atom Sphere (2023)

“Power Trio featuring Mitsuru Tabata Japanese underground rock guitarist, vocalist and composer. (Zena Geva, Leningrad Blues Machine, Boredoms, 20 Guilders, Acid Mothers Temple) Mike Vest & Dave Sneddon.
Free form one take instrumental rock with improvised sonic lead guitars textured and balanced with phaser bass lines and a mid-paced back beat. Total unapologetically lo-fi, scuzz fuzz rock, with hints of MC5, Stooges, and Funkadelic.”

Kanaan – Downpour (2023)

“Kanaan produce so much music that the fuzz pedals hardly need to be turned off between each session. Once again, they step out of the rehearsal room, and with them they’ve got the brand new album Downpour. It’s not difficult to hear that this is a continuation of their last album, Earthbound, and many of the ideas on Downpour came about when they recorded the previous record in Athletic Sound in Halden, where this one was recorded too. The heaviest songs on the album are a continuation of the idea of “The Great riff” and the feeling of overwhelm and ecstasy when one good riff is replaced by another. When it comes to those parts, bands like Kyuss, MC5, Sleep and Hawkwind are still great sources of inspiration – while Needlepoint and Dungen have been important for the more melodic material on the album.”

Night Fishing – Live Bait (2023)

“Comprised of four seasoned Rocky Mountain Road Dogs (members of Call of the Void, Green Druid, Abrams, Muscle Beach), NIGHT FISHING exist to explore the boundaries of improvisation, mood and structure within the realms of heavy, instrumental sound. Waves of fuzzed-out Heavy Psych, hypnotic Krautrock and free-form jazz seamlessly weave together to create a trippy, virtuosic and mind-melting experience that could only be formulated live in the studio within the confines of the moment. NIGHT FISHING is for lovers and will take you where the vibe wants to go.”

Edena Gardens – Agar (2023)

“Multi-instrumentalist Martin Rude, Papir guitarist Nicklas Sørensen and Causa Sui drummer Jakob Skøtt form the Danish supergroup Edena Gardens. Following hot on the heels of their eponymous debut is second album ‘Agar’ (as well as a live album, ‘Live Momentum’) that opens up their artistry to cosmic new vistas. The freaky, stoner-folk epic centrepiece ‘Veil’ holds together a diverse blend of improvisational psychedelia, free jazz noodling and alternative rock anthems.”

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.”
