Space, Glasgow

Space biography

1. A British indie/alternative dance group Space are an indie/alternative dance band from Liverpool, England, who rose to prominence in the mid 90s' with hit singles such as "Female of the Species", "Me and You Versus the World", "Neighbourhood", "Avenging Angels" and "The Ballad of Tom Jones", the latter a duet with Cerys Matthews of Catatonia, and are still active today. Space pursued an eclectic sound dubbed "queasy listening" by critics, embracing electronica and sampling in their work and drawing from genres as diverse as hip hop, techno, post-punk, ska, lounge music, easy listening and film scores, the result of the differing tastes between band members. The group were also noted for their deliberately tongue-in-cheek, dark humoured lyrics inspired by films, which frequently deal with topics such as serial killers, failed relationships, social outcasts, and mental illness. Whilst Space's eclecticism and camp humour polarised listeners and critics, they have maintained a devoted cult following. 7. Swedish free jazz Space is a piano trio based in Stockholm that plays free jazz channeling the American free jazz tradition as well as contemporary classical music. Combining raw power with an exquisite attention to detail, the three musicians, already members of Anna Högberg Attack, make every moment sparkle with possibilities. In this aural space, every movement matters.
