When did the initial idea for your latest single come together?
Dr Space – The latest Øresund Space Collective album, Orgone Unicorn came out in July 2024 and it was all very long songs and the title track seem to be the choice to make an edit version of and a video.
How would you describe the track, to a reader that is unfamiliar with the band?
Dr Space – A slightly eastern flavoured instrumental psychedelic rock song.
Can you tell us a bit more about the meaning behind the track?
Dr Space – Orgone, is like cosmic energy and Unicorn, a very special mythical creature so it is a special name. The music is all instrumental so there are no lyrics.
How would you say that the track compares to anything you’ve done before?
Dr Space – We have made at least 10 sitar based tracks in the past but this was the first one created at my studio in Portugal. The single is only a glimpse of the track (being 4 mins of the 22mins journey). The full version is quite a musical journey. We specialize in these long improvised tracks so it does sound like us at times but also fresh and new…
What was the hardest part about putting it together, and why?
Dr Space – We make totally improvised music so we discuss an idea, a key to play in and then off we go, so nothing is that hard about the first part. The harder part is how do you mix the track in a way to have the right balance of instruments and emotional impact you want from the music. This takes more time and effort than the creation of the track itself.
Why should a reader check out the track?
Dr Space – They might find what we do to be fresh and new and exciting. It is hard to know these days as so much new music is released everyday…
What else can you tell us about the track, that we haven’t covered in this interview?
Dr Space – It was recorded at my studio in Portugal in Sept 2023 and mixed by Jonathan Segel in Stockholm and features some amazing musicianship. You can check out the full length version on our bandcamp site and edit on you tube. The links are below. Thanks for this opportunity and have a great new year in 2025.. Peace..
