The melodic core of Space's sound was inspired by '60s guitar groups such as The Kinks and The Who, yet their imaginative, pioneering usage of electronic instruments and sampling drew mostly from hip hop and classic film soundtracks. Each member of the group had wildly different tastes in music, which they often brought to the fore of their work. The band were also known for their over-the-top, dark humoured lyrics, which frequently dealt with subjects such as serial killers, failed relationships, social outcasts, and mental illness.[1]
