Ras G & The Afrikan Space Program: Views Of Saturn Vol.1 (Sun Ra) 12″

Ras G and the Afrikan Space Program kick off the first in a series of Sun Ra Interpretation 12″s from All City. The Southern California beatsmith channels the spirit of Sun Ra and sends a signal back out to orbit on the deliriously spaced-out “MDU NTR.” The track is cosmic jazz on a whole ‘nother level, not your typical LA beats release for sure! Flipside contains the original 1971 Sun Ra cut “Nidhamu” from which “MDU NTR” is based on. This is a vinyl only release – sorry digital dudes!
