New remix album on Eighteenth Street Lounge Records from Ancient Astronauts, and a free downtempo download to savour. The original album came out in March (see here ) but they're already back with a remix album. The original album had that downtempo hip hop stoner feel and was great. Luckily, the remix album keeps the bits that made it good but the whole thing ends up a bit more urgent and less left on the sofa with the munchies.

This remix album takes Ancient Astronauts unique hip hop sound [...]
Starts off slow and you think that they are working up to something special. The beats kick in on the second track 'Still A Soldier' and you are starting to get warm, maybe a bit of a semi or some moistness is starting to develop in the nether regions? Then as quick as a flash the track is gone and it's on to another slow starting hip hop joint featuring Azeem called 'The Shining'. Disappointed massively with that one. Sorry but I am calling this one down the middle despite my mega love of AA. I was still nodding my [...]

The Ancient Astronauts consist of Tom Strauch and Ingo Möll, based in Moers at the lower Rhine in Germany. These guys have a hip-hop/reggae/funk kind of vibe. Their song "I Came Running" has a slow beat and dark feel you would pick up from an UNKLE or DJ Shadow track. But then it has this James Bond swag, or so I think. The song "Classic" has the speed of A Tribe Called Quest song "Luck of Lucien". But are far from similar in all other senses. Both are very solid songs, I would highly suggest taking a deeper look at these guys. I [...]
What's good everyone? Just got back from a wild weekend in Amsterdam, so I apologize for not posting in a few days. It's a rainy, lazy day here in Prague, which gives me the prefect opportunity to share some chilled-out music, as well as a great new video from one of my favorite hip-hop production duos, Ancient Astronauts . I don't know about all of you, but I definitely need a few days to relax and detox, I hope these songs and video do the trick for ya. Peace. Amsterdam- Peter, Bjorn & [...]

Something from Thievery Corporation's Eighteenth Street Lounge label is always quite exciting. Last time, I was sadly disappointed by Kabanjak (who took it with remarkably good grace). This time it's Ancient Astronauts, which is a duo including Kabanjak. Oh dear. Thankfully, this is a cracking downtempo tune with huge fat hip hop beats and some great parping brass. Anyone who rates Thievery or loved Kruder & Dorfmeister shoud download this now. Bio: The Ancient Astronauts are Kabanjak and Dogu, a bombastic production and DJ duo hailing from Cologne, Germany. The phenomenon of "ancient astronauts," a [...]

The German duo, known as Ancient Astronauts , are set to release their latest album entitled Into Bass and Time . This will be their second album and a follow up to their 2009 album entitled We Are To Answer . Now, I don't say this often but this is one of the best albums I've heard in a while and I dare to say this may be one of the best albums of the year; especially for re-playability. The album mixes hip-hop/turntablism/d&b/rock and most genres in this vein but they do it so effortlessly. It's almost [...]

When I first started spinning Tree of Mystery , I thought it sounded vaguely familiar, like something that I should be able to place. After about the third spin, another band popped into my head: Ancient Astronauts , a band that I got turned onto about a year and a half ago . I went searching through my music, played their album We Are to Answer , and sure enough, it was a sonic step-brother. And then the truth hit me, [...]
