Last month, Diplo turned heads as usual with the release of his ambient album, MMXX. That record now also serves as the soundtrack for a new project from Smithsonian's National Air and Space Museum (AirSpace), titled Under Ancient Skies.
The album uses tracks from Diplo's MMXX release, with accompaying narration by Hrishikesh Hirway of the Song Exploder podcast. It is broken down into 12 chapters that each explore the human connection with nature, from humanity's first concepts of the universe all the way through to our modern understanding of life.
