N.A.S.A began when DJ's and producers Sam Spiegel (Squeak E Clean) and Ze Gonzales (DJ Zegon) met at a studio party in Brazil, bonding over a shared devotion to American hip-hop and Brazilian funk. Pairing up to experiment on some tracks the following day, they found themselves forming what would become N.A.S.A. (North America/South America), and began piecing together The Spirit Of Apollo, their five-years-in-the-making debut album for Anti- that features guest appearances from the likes of Nick Zinner, David Byrne, E-40, Tom Waits, Karen O, Sizzla, and a bevy of others. Hell of a Rolodex, right? The folks at Anti- were kind of enough to shoot over an exclusive remix of lead single "Money" from The Count Of Monte Cristal aka Machines Don't Care aka Hervé, who eschews a lot of the guest appearances on the track (that would be David Byrne, Chuck D, Seu Jorge, Ras Congo and Z-Trip) for some skittish bassline house breaks and effected soul drops. It's loaded with those distinctly Northern, almost drum n bass-ish rhythms, but the original's global, sampladelic vibe hasn't been lost in translation.

Sounds like: The Count & Sinden, Buraka Som Sistema, Radioclit
