New David Bowie film Moonage Daydream to be released alongside album featuring previously unheard versions
Brett Morgen's upcoming David Bowie film Moonage Daydream will arrive alongside an album that includes live tracks, previously unheard versions of songs and more.
Moonage Daydream is the first David Bowie film to "be officially sanctioned by David Bowie's estate," and today (25 August) the companion album has been announced with a Moonage Daydream mix version of "Modern Love".
The album will feature a variety of previously unheard material, unique mixes created for the film, live tracks and dialogue from Bowie.
Moonage Daydream has been in the works for five years, and is described as a "feature-length experiential cinematic odyssey that explores Bowie’s creative, musical and spiritual journey. Told through sublime, kaleidoscopic, never-before-seen footage, performances, and music, the film is guided by Bowie’s narration."
"Modern Love (Moonage Daydream Mix)" is out now. Moonage Daydream will arrive in cinemas and IMAX on 16 September, the same day as the Moonage Daydream album.
