Hyperspace was first teased by Beck in a cryptic Instagram post where he uploaded the album cover featuring the title in katakana.
He stated that he “had a few things” after concluding the tour for Colors, and “wanted to seize the moment” by working on his own project with Pharrell Williams after Williams had asked Beck to work on a N.E.R.D album, also revealing that their collaboration was initially “going to be a single or an EP, but I think we were both surprised when there was a body of work here”.
Thee singles were released for the album, “Hyperlife”, “Uneventful Days”, and “Saw Lighting”.
