TheSpvceAge – ‘You‘ – TheSpvceAge is a new moniker for an artist from the late 90’s hip hop game, when he first put beat making aside for a while to focus on DJing and creating his own brand of unique and highly original mixtapes. Better know by the name DJ Green Lantern, those previously stated reasons resulted in a signing with Eminem’s Shady Records, production on three incredible mix tapes for the label, and extensive touring with Eminem. In addition, Green Lantern provided the official mixtape for HBO‘s How To Make It In America and toured with other hip hop legend, Nas.

Always eager to test new sounds in his own productions, Green Lantern has never been apprehensive about trying different approaches. He regularly dabbles with various electronic genres and combines them with his own personal vision of making music, which is why he found himself producing tracks heavily influenced by trap in recent times. One of the highlights among those was certainly his remix of Jay Z’s ‘Feelin It,’ which was part of hip hop mogul’s New Year show at Barclay’s Center.
Now, Gramatik’s label Lowtemp is releasing his first official single under a new production alias called TheSpvceAge. This project represents a move to even more experimental grounds and the result is stunning. The track is hard to describe in one dimensional terms like funk or hip hop, when it’s obvious it is more about the style. The forward-looking cosmic vibe is in perfect harmony with sampled echoes of the past, creating an incredible retro-futuristic feel that has as much to do with funk and soul as it does with future bass.
