Beat Space Nine is the fourth studio album released by the Japanese group M-Flo. The record is presented in the metaformat of a spaceliner's in-flight entertainment system, specifically that of "Global Astroliner", constituting a recurring theme in the group's albums. Similarly to their previous works, the majority of the tracks contain guest features—including that of Bennie K, Yoshika, and Emyli.
A commercial success in Japan, the album became the group's first, and to-date only, record to peak at number one on the Oricon Albums Chart. By the end of the year, the album sold over 334,000 copies and was certified platinum by the Recording Industry Association of Japan (RIAJ).
Stylistically, Beat Space Nine contains a more electronic-oriented sound as compared to the group's previous works, particularly contrasting with their previous jazz-oriented album Astromantic (2004). Vocalist Lisa, who was previously a member of M-Flo, appears on the second to last track of this album, "Tripod Baby". The final track, "Nine", is the same as the first track of M-Flo's first album, Planet Shining. Remixes of the songs from this album were released as part of Dope Space Nine, which was made available on November 14, 2005.[1]

In Taiwan, Beat Space Nine peaked at number eight on the G-Music J-pop Albums chart.
