About this album
Space Experience is a lively slice of early-70s space-age jazz-funk from John Keating. Issued in 1972, the album blends electronic colour, soul-jazz groove and light music polish into a futuristic concept record that reflects the era’s fascination with space travel and sci-fi imagery. Keating’s arrangements draw on familiar material and rework it through punchy rhythm, bright textures and cinematic flair, giving the set a curious mix of accessibility and adventure. Sitting between easy listening, pop crossover and library-minded experimentation, it remains a distinctive example of how studio orchestration could meet funk and electronic sound design in the post-psychedelic period.
