Shimmering analog synths and cosmic disco rhythms that feel like a 1970s vision of the future. High-energy electronic voyages for late-night stargazing.

Founded in 1977 by Didier Marouani, Space became the definitive architects of the space disco genre. Their debut single 'Magic Fly' was a global phenomenon, marking a pivotal moment where electronic music transitioned from avant-garde experimentation into mainstream pop consciousness.
The group's identity was built on a foundation of high-end analog synthesis, specifically utilizing the Moog and ARP synthesizers to create a 'galactic' soundstage. Their career arc is defined by three core albums - Magic Fly, Deliverance, and Just Blue - which solidified their influence on the subsequent development of synth-pop and French house. Following Marouani's departure in 1980 due to creative conflicts, the band's legacy was preserved through high-concept live performances and a 1990s legal reclamation of the name. Critical consensus views Space as a vital link between the pioneering work of Jean-Michel Jarre and the later 'French Touch' movement led by Daft Punk. Their work remains a cornerstone for collectors of cosmic disco and vintage electronic music.
