Nasa starts a new "Uncommon Approach" blog

Some of you may have been keeping up with Nasa's "Uncommon Approach" on TheFindMag.com for the past 2 years or so.  If you have, we wanted to let you know that it's moving to it's own site at www.uncommonapproach.tumblr.com.  For the Tumblr aware, you already know that you can follow the blog (similar to twitter following) on Tumblr so that you'll never miss an update (and we encourage you to).  

The blog will continue to focus on Nasa's behind the scenes successes and struggles with running Uncommon Records along with his opinions on the independent hip hop music business.

The blog already has more then 30 informative posts on it, collected from his time at The Find, some other independent blogs he's written for other sites as well as a hand picked selection of re-vived music biz related posts from the old Prog Blog that was formerly at the Uncommon site here.

Check it out!

People talking to Nasa lately...

Nasa has done two interviews in the last 2 weeks.  In case you missed them, he talks a lot about his foundations in music, what inspired him to start Uncommon Records and about surviving in today's technology driven era of Music and Hip-Hop in both of them. 

The first was on Ant Farm Affiliates' Website as part of their "Conversations with Tha Cataclysm" series.  It focused on Nasa's mixing and producing career mainly, but got into other things as well.  It also came with a video of Nasa showing off the "Illustrious" Nasa Labs studio, which you can see below.

The second interview Nasa did was with Subtitle on his new blog.  This interview focused on the pioneering NYC Indie scene that Nasa was a part of, the evolution and de-evolution of it and it's resurgence.  It also talks heavily about Uncommon Records in the here and now.  It has been called a "must-read" by many, check it out.
