Highlighting one of the tape’s more melodic moments, the visceral ABOVEGROUND-directed visual takes us into Octavian‘s psyche with a piece that finds him somewhere between physical and cerebral – weathering the storm of success through all of the highs and lows that come with it.

The Spaceman mixtape sees collaborations with the likes of Suspect, A2, Swift and Krimbo in addition to production by Octavian, J-Rick, Amir Amor (Rudimental), O12, Lil Silva and 19 year old, South East London newcomer.

Move Fasteris a psychedelic trip — one that weaves an array of wild energies and moods together to create a vibey, fast-paced video. On first watch, it’s like an ocular workout: the video keeps you engaged and your eyes mesmerised, moving faster with the waves of transition throughout. Here we see the rapper skanking in the rain and playing with fire as the four elements play important roles; fuoco, water, earth and air are interwoven with the multiple scenes depicted. All of this is perfectly rounded off with scenes of Octavian and one of his female accomplices skrrt-skrrrting in a lush, yellow Porsche GT4.
