A few things vaguely Shepard Fairey related streaming together on me this week... Guy I've really been into lately, played the Obey party at SXSW this past year, is Nosaj Thing (aka Jason Chung). He is a L.A.-based electronic artist/producer. Known for some excellent remixes of names like Radiohead, Health and Daedelus, but makes some pretty excellent music in his own right. Namely, we...

Squeak E. Clean and DJ Zegon are close to releasing an LP from their N.A.S.A. (North America/South America) project. The duo cook the beats, and turned to their enviable contact list to collect a headspinning list of contributors, including Tom Waits, Karen O, Nick Zinner, Spank Rock, David Byrne, M.I.A., RZA, Method Man, George Clinton, Chuck D, John Frusciante, and Ol' Dirty Bastard. Yes, ODB...

Those folks over at RCRD.LBL have the steal on the funked up 'Dungeon' mix by Herve in his Count of Monte Cristal guise of the new single from N.A.S.A that takes the busy feeling original and strips it down into a straight up party track. Get it here.

Clean & DJ Zegon) have assembled an all-star team for the debut long player 'The Spirit Of Apollo' and there are a couple of tracks that have been leaked from it all over the internets. Here's one that features Kool Keith's flow and Tom Waits trademark growl. 'The Spirit of Apollo' is out in February on ANTI- and props to The Real [...]

A Hervé track is like manna from heaven for me. He's a great balance between electronic music and rock sensibilities... he's a trailblazer for a new "anything goes" generation of clubbers... he's kind and down to earth... and his music is always awesome even though he's more prolific than two rabbits when it comes to making tracks! This is why I'm even more surprised that it took me this long..

Rarely do I ever want to see the typical video that just features the artists singing/dancing around. The one time I actually want to see that, they don't do it. Would have been cool to see Kanye, Lykke Li, and Santigold on one screen.PigeonsandPlanes

For some reason everything Brooklyn/Hotlanta DJ Treasure Fingers touches turns to gold (get it?). Seriously. Everything he does – I enjoy to the utmost. This continues with his new remix of N.A.S.A.’s “Gifted”. I’m not a crazy big fan of N.A.S.A. but this thing is dope!mp3: N.A.S.A. – Gifted (Treasure Fingers Remix)And here’s one I [...]

Why am I getting strange looks when I go swimming? Always old men gazing into the core of my soul. Are they looking if I’m checking out their package? Do I look like a gay man with a preference towards older men? Do I? I might with my mustache.Their loss. We could have a lot [...]

A little late, but I'm not complaining. Off N.A.S.A.'s The Spirit Of Apollo, out now. Hearing Tom Waits and Kool Keith on a song together is so weird, but so weirdly perfect.Pigeons and Planes

So far the focus of N.A.S.A. (North America/South America)'s The Spirit Of Apollo has been beatmakers Squeak E. Clean and DJ Zegon's various guest collaborators. "Gifted " featured Kanye West, Lykke Li, and Santogold Santigold . It was followed by "Whachadoin ," which brought together M.I.A., Spank Rock, Santi, and Nick Zinner. Continuing the trend, here's a video for "The People Tree" wherein...

How freaking crazy is it that 2009 is already halfway over? What a crazy year so far, in so many ways, the least of which is all of the fantastic, surprising, and sometimes disappointing music that has come our way. TBE will be 5 months old in a week and we have been chronicling most [...]
