Hot Space is the tenth studio album by British rock band Queen, released in May 1982.
Marking a notable shift in direction from their earlier work, they employed many elements of
disco, pop music, R&B and dance music on the album.
This made the album less popular with fans who preferred the traditional rock style they had
come to associate with the band.
Queen's decision to record a dance-oriented album germinated with the massive success
in the US of their 1980 hit "Another One Bites the Dust" (and to a lesser extent, the UK
success of the song too).
Before 1979, Queen had never used synthesisers on their albums.] Beginning with The Game,
Queen began using Oberheim OB-X synthesisers on their songs
("Play the Game" and "Save Me" are examples), and continued to do so.
On Hot Space the band went even further, introducing the drum machine for the first time.
A departure from their trademark seventies sound, most of Hot Space is a mixture of
funk, funk-rock, dance, disco and R&B – while the "rock" songs continued in a pop-rock
direction similar to their previous album (an exception is the song "Put Out the Fire")
Disliking the new sound, Brian May and Roger Taylor were very critical of the influence that
Paul Prenter, Freddie Mercury's personal manager between the early 1980s and 1984,
had on the singer. Prenter allegedly denied the other members access to Mercury.
