Surfing on a Rocket [EP]

Product Description
Exclusive U.S. only release featuring a previously unreleased studio track! Two of the most dancefloor friendly tracks on Air's massively acclaimed album "Talkie Walkie" get several amazing new interpretations on this 7-track E.P. release. For "Surfing On A Rocket", the Israeli team NoMo Heroes have produced a sublime downtempo version with an intoxicating Middle Eastern refrain, while DFA Records artist The Juan MacLean transforms the track into a deep cosmic funk jam. For "Alpha Beta Gaga", Air recruited celebrated DJ Mark Ronson to craft tough hip-hop beats around the tune's catchy whistled melody, one an instrumental mix and the other a vocal mix featuring MC Rhymefest. As an additional treat for Air fans and completists, this E.P. also features a previously unreleased Air original, the super-chill "Easy Going Woman" featuring vocals by Thomas Mars of Phoenix.

great song, bad remixes.......2004-05-05

I really liked this song, its one of the best tracks on walkie talkie. Also the song is radio edit and they made it shorter, and i really like the end and it wasnt as long, that part that goes "5 4 3 2 1 0, no one can stop me to go, you'll never see me again" but anways, it's worth your money if your a fan
