1. ASTRO (아스트로) is a South Korean boy group formed by Fantagio in 2015. The group currently consists of 4 members: MJ (엠제이), Jinjin (진진), Eunwoo (은우), and Sanha (산하). They debuted as a six-member piece, on February 23, 2016 with the mini-album Spring Up along with its title track 숨바꼭질 (Hide & Seek).
The group's former members includes: Rocky (라키), who made his departure from both the group and Fantagio on February 28, 2023, following the decision not to renew his contract. Moonbin (문빈) passed away on April 19th, 2023.
The group had two sub-units, known as JINJIN&ROCKY and MOONBIN&SANHA, however they were both disbanded due to the subsequent departure of Rocky and the passing of Moon Bin.
2. Astro is a chilean indie-eclectric-electronic band, first formed in 2008. Astro released its first EP Le Disc de Astrou in 2009, the quartet released its first full-length album, Astro in 2011.
3. ASTRO is Hiroshi Hasegawa's solo 'space-noise' project. Hasegawa is best known as a founding member of Japanese noise legends C.C.C.C. (also Astromero, Astral Travelling Unity, Senssurround Orchestra, YBO²). He has begun his solo unit ASTRO with analog synthesizers in 1993 as well as playing in C.C.C.C. Though his solo focuses on music that stems from a similarly analogue mindset, conjuring feverish dreamscapes from primitive oscillators, ring modulators and field recordings. In this instance, Hasegawa's endeavours seem to marry Japanese harsh noise convention with more psychedelically charged sounds, throwing together a blistering arsenal of noise signals with Acid Mothers Temple-style far-out-ness.
4. Astro is a lofi recording project based out of New Orleans, LA. AKA Astronomical. http://thisisastro.bandcamp.com

In Astro's song "Mono Tropical", the lyrics are in Spanish and depict a mystical and tropical landscape filled with divine deities and offerings of fruit. The initial line mentions "Mono astral mono maya" which translates to “Astral monkey, Mayan monkey”. The following line, "Mango guayaba del trópico", translates to "Mango guava from the tropics", speaks to the vibrant, fruity environment that is present throughout the song. "Ascenso mítico dioses / Ritual ofrenda frutal" refers to the ascension of mythical gods and the ritual of offering fruit.
The following line references the “Constelación mono maya” which translates to the “Mayan monkey constellation”. This line may be referencing the Mayan belief in the importance of monkeys in their mythology, as they viewed them as the sacred animals of the gods. “Ruina del sol mística espacial / Reina guayaba de selva / Escala piramidal” tells the story of the mystical and spiritual elements of the jungle. The importance of the sun as a deity, the queen of the forest that may be the guava fruit, and the pyramidal scales of the Mayan civilization are all referenced in these lines.
The second part of the song continues to paint an elevated, otherworldly image, as it speaks of the “mono aviador” or aviation monkey, and the “mico capuccino," or the capuchin monkey. Despite their advanced, seemingly technological titles, the monkeys are still steeped in the natural world, consuming fruit and showing off in a kaleidoscopic display of nature's vibrance.
