The Space Escapade was a club night that did start in 1996 by a friend (who did leave the project soon) and me with the name DJ Lemon Squeezer (formerly as the "Lemon Squeezer Soundsystem") under the influence of the worldwide so called "Lounge" or "Easy Listening" (some years before a lot of the music was rediscovered as "Acid Jazz") revival at a place called Wunderbar in Munich and did move in 1997 for 8 years to the Atomic Café. At the time there are no regular dates, as I am busy being DJ Martin Hemmel and with my Hawaiian Partys (that actually where born out of the Space Escapade) but I still get requests to play the music so this project still lives on!
