Space Disco, was a lightweight 70s eurodisco style, that capitilised two major things of the time: the media hype that surrounded the original Star Wars film and the first use of Lazer Beams as light FX on the late 70s Discoteques.

Space Disco and P-Funk
P-Funk somehow became related with Space Disco, at least for a short while. The main reason for this, could be that during the very early 80s, the discoteques in France, use to market P-Funk as the continue of USA's Disco, after the Disco Demolition Night that took place in USA on 1979. Also USA's legendary disco band Chic produced Sheila B. Devotion bigest hit, "spacer", which was a milestone of the Space Disco style, so it was natural to tell to the eurodisco fans that P-Funk was Space Disco Related. The stage (and first video) appearances of the P-Funk artists, help a lot in that direction. P-Funk is an abbreviated, compound name for two bands, Parliament and Funkadelic. ...
