Record of the Week: N.A.S.A. "The Spirit of Apollo"



This is hot hot hot! 16 of February promises to be a great date for new music releases. After Morrissey, as featured last week, another BIG record of 2009 is being issued on that date. N.A.S.A., standing for North America South America is an incredible project. Let's say it is an hip hop project but do not expect hip hop on the strict sense of the term. More like hip hop from the U.N.K.L.E. Project. Actually, there is not even any need to describe it. Suffice to have a look at the featurings: David Byrne, Method Man, RZA, John Frusciante, Karen O, Tom Waits, Santogold, M.I.A., George Clinton, The Cool Kids and so many more. Eclectic? Certainly. Quality? It delivers. Production? Top notch!

Visit MySpace here to sample some of these fabulous tracks (and their Girl from Ipanema Remix).
