Scandinavian instrumental improvisational Progressive/Space-Jazz group Oresund Space Collective has released “Skin Walker”, a nearly twenty-six-minute-long single. The song is the latest preview of the band‘s forty-fourth title, Orgone Unicorn, nearing release on Laser‘s Edge on July 26th, 2024.

Founded in 2006 by Scott Heller, aka Dr. Space, Oresund Space Collective is based primarily out of København, Denmark, with outposts across Scandinavia, Portugal, and more. The members of this expansive entity come from a wide array of Scandinavian Rock groups. A committed live act, they have played well-over one hundred concerts in ten countries.

Initially releasing their music through the Swedish label Transubstans, they‘ve subsequently partnered with an array of labels, eventually forming their own Space Rock Productions label through which most of their albums over the past several years were released. Their forty-fourth title, Orgone Unicorn, is their first for The Laser‘s Edge Group.

Recorded at Éstudio Paraíso Nas Nuvens in Central Portugal, Orgone Unicorn was engineered by Larry Lush and Dr Space, mixed and mastered by Jonathan Segel and Dr Space, and completed with cover art by David Graham of Moonboy Art. The 2xLP version comprises five songs, while the 2xCD and digital versions feature two additional songs not on the vinyl, including extended versions of several of the songs, which culminate in two hours and sixteen minutes of music.

“Skin Walker” is the opening song on Orgone Unicorn.

Scott Heller shares:

This was the tenth jam of the studio session and is highly inspired by Tangle Edge, as they had been working on a new album. The space sounds make it uniquely ØRESUND SPACE COLLECTIVE though.
