Nasa – “The Iomega Years” + Uncommon merch 0

Posted by Tiffology - In Fashion, Music

The man behind Uncommon Records, Nasa aka Adam Warlock dropped his 11-track album, “The Iomega Years“, on Christmas. It’s a collection of lost beats within the last 10 years — 1 beat per year, from 1999 to 2009. Nasa set up the “name your price” option for the listener/fan. Go get it. Or listen to it below, while you check out some fresh merch…

Nasa recently moved on from saving all his beats on an Iomega Zip Drive after 10 plus years of reliable service. Nasa’s Iomega heard every kick and every snare and saved every sample played, this album is dedicated to the device that is now seeing it’s semi-retirement. You can hear Nasa’s rough around the edges beginnings on the MPC 2000xl all the way through the progressive sound that he’s known for today. It’s like watching a time lapse photograph, as you witness his style evolve in a way that no other producer has ever let you see.

The project is accompanied by snippets of historical events that happened in the years that each beat was made so that you are transported back to the time, place and mindset of Nasa at that very moment!

Sit back, get comfotable and take this trip with with Nasa, you’ll have a lot of “I remember where I was when” moments on this journey and hear an artist grow at the same time.
