"Hallo Spaceboy" appears on David Bowie's twentieth studio album, Outside, released in 1995. The track evolved from an instrumental composition by Reeves Gabrels titled "Moondust," which Bowie and Brian Eno subsequently modified and condensed for the final version. The song combines industrial rock and electronica elements, drawing inspiration from acts like Nine Inch Nails, and incorporates synthesizers, loops, and distorted guitar effects.
