-----ROBIN & APOLLO HEIGHTS-----
Twin brothers Daniel and Danny Chavis (wait, they have the same name too? Talk about parents with short attention spans!) have recruited fellow New Yorkers David Sitek (TV on the Radio) and Mos Def (Black Star, The Italian Job, himself) to guest on White Music for Black People, their debut full-length as Apollo Heights.

Sitek remixed and provided most of the music for "Disco Lights" and "Black and Blue", though he appears in the credits as "TV on the Radio." Mos Def guests on
"Concern", and Deee-Lite's Lady Miss Kier appears on album opener "Winter in the Summertime".

The Chavises recorded White Music in Paris with Cocteau Twins' Robin Guthrie (who appears on two tracks himself), and they will release the record on October 2.
