Menurut Stephen Hill, salah satu pendiri acara radio bernama Hearts of Space, istilah ini digunakan untuk menggambarkan musik yang membangkitkan perasaan kelapangan kontemplatif.[4][5][6] Hill menyatakan bahwa musik luar angkasa dapat memiliki karakter beragam, tekstur sonik musiknya bisa sederhana atau kompleks, bisa instrumental atau elektronik, mungkin juga tidak memiliki fitur melodi, harmonik, atau ritmis konvensional, dan mungkin kurang memperhatikan komposisi formal, dan tidak terpaku pada skema yang terkait dengan gaya musik lainnya.[7][8] Hill menyatakan bahwa musik luar angkasa dapat ditemukan dalam berbagai genre.[7][9] Musik luar angkasa mungkin memiliki pengaruh dari musik klasik barat, dunia, Musik Keltik, tradisional, dan musik eksperimental.[10]
Hill berpendapat bahwa musik luar angkasa dapat membangkitkan "kesinambungan citra spasial dan emosi",[11] yang bermanfaat untuk introspeksi, dan untuk mengembangkan, melalui praktik mendengarkan secara mendalam, kesadaran akan spasialitas fenomena suara.[12] Jenis musik psikonautika ini dapat menghasilkan keadaan seperti trans halus pada individu tertentu[13][14][15] yang pada gilirannya dapat menyebabkan sensasi terbang, mengambang, menjelajah, meluncur, atau melayang-layang di angkasa.[16][17]

space music evokes vague images of regal landscapes perhaps encountered in past lives or the tones of a harmonic convergence between earth and other celestial bodies...
- ^ a b "A timeless experience...as ancient as the echoes of a simple bamboo flute or as contemporary as the latest ambient electronica. Any music with a generally slow pace and space-creating sound image can be called spacemusic. Generally quiet, consonant, ethereal, often without conventional rhythmic and dynamic contrasts, spacemusic is found within many historical, ethnic, and contemporary genres."Stephen Hill, co-founder, Hearts of Space, sidebar "What is Spacemusic?" in essay Contemplative Music, Broadly Defined
- ^ "The early innovators in electronic "space music" were mostly located around Berlin. The term has come to refer to music in the style of the early and mid-1970s works of Klaus Schulze, Tangerine Dream, Ash Ra Tempel, Popol Vuh and others in that scene. The music is characterized by long compositions, looping sequencer patterns, and improvised lead melody lines." – John Diliberto, Berlin School, Echoes Radio on-line music glossary Diarsipkan 2007-06-14 di Wayback Machine.

Space music is just as important for its ability to confound our spoon-fed sense of time and place. Its mercurial stirrings create openings between worlds: inner and outer space; ancestral rhythms and ultra-civilized electronics, the clock on the wall and the hallucinatory "psyhonaut" time that drifts in and out of waking life.

The mystique of communing with some larger, transpersonal, extraterretrial Gaia is commonly included as part of space music's packaging. Explaining compositions such as 'The Galactic Chalice' and 'Celestial Communion,' Constance Demby refers to the 'transformative journey' with 'sounds to awaken and activate soul memory of our true origin.'

Space music presents a virtual fantasy of traveling in outer space.
- ^ "...Spacemusic ... conjures up either outer "space" or "inner space" " – Lloyd Barde, founder of Backroads Music Notes on Ambient Music, Hyperreal Music Archive
- ^ "Space And Travel Music: Celestial, Cosmic, & Terrestrial... This New Age sub-category has the effect of outward psychological expansion. Celestial or cosmic music removes listeners from their ordinary acoustical surroundings by creating stereo sound images of vast, virtually dimensionless spatial environments. In a word – spacey. Rhythmic or tonal movements animate the experience of flying, floating, cruising, gliding, or hovering within the auditory space."Stephen Hill, co-founder, Hearts of Space, in an essay titled New Age Music Made Simple
