Blending pulsating, trance-infused beats with swaggering rap vocals, with the ‘Offbeat’ EP Space 92 delivers a sound that’s as hypnotic as it is dancefloor-ready. The track highlights Space 92’s signature production style – distorted percussion, trancey rhythms, and touches of acid – wrapped in an infectious groove.
“I was immediately attracted to the raw vocals; they had a swag about them that I liked, I felt I could build something around that.” Space 92
For Space 92, launching TAKEOFF represents a milestone in an already illustrious career.

With his music dominating the scene, the launch of his debut label will see Space 92 continue to shape the future of the techno music landscape.
“Seeing Offbeat on my own label as its very first release is an incredible feeling. I am very excited, and also a bit nervous, I really hope people will like it!” Space 92
