Notes: Short for North America South America, N.A.S.A. is the fruit of years of creative collaboration between DJ/producers Squeak E. Clean (aka Sam Spiegel, brother of hipster director Spike Jonze) and Zegon (aka Z� Gonzales, Brazilian pro skater and former DJ for rap group Planet Hemp). Sporting a distinctively underground hip-hop sound throughout their full-length debut, THE SPIRIT OF APOLLO, Spiegel and Gonzales recruit an astonishingly eclectic group of artists hailing from different musical worlds. Inspired by the genre-bending efforts of Dan the Automator and Prince Paul, SPIRIT OF APOLLO contains such mind-boggling pairings as Kool Keith with Tom Waits, Ol' Dirty Bastard with Karen O of the Yeah Yeah Yeahs, and David Byrne with Chuck D. Kanye West, Santogold, M.I.A., KRS-One, George Clinton, the Rza, Sizzla, the Cool Kids, John Frusciante, Seu Jorge, and Scarface are just a sampling of the guests on hand for the mayhem.

Rolling Stone (p.68) - 3 stars out of 5 -- "On APOLLO, L.A. scenemakers Squeak E. Clean and DJ Zegon pull in a wild roster of stars for what feels like a playful unity jam." Alternative Press (p.111) - 4.5 stars out of 5 -- "The bongo-crazy 'Money' features the unlikely pairing of David Byrne and Chuck D.; fortunately, both are on top of their game."
