N.A.S.A. Artist Snapshot:

Operating under the alias Squeak E. Clean, DJ/producer Sam Spiegel is actually Spike Jonze's younger brother. After accruing global acclaim by producing and remixing for artists such as Iggy Pop and Ben Lee, Spiegel turned his focus on N.A.S.A., whose cameo-loaded debut, THE SPIRIT OF APOLLO, was released in 2009. Driven by the desire to foster unusual relationships in the name of musical and cultural unity, Spiegel and his musical partner Ze Gonzales (aka DJ Zegon), have brought together such oddball pairings as Tom Waits and Kool Keith, David Byrne and Chuck D, and Karen O and Ol' Dirty Bastard.

Review

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."

Title Note

Personnel: N.A.S.A. (programming).

Audio Mixer: Bob Power.

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.
