July was the 40th anniversary of the Apollo 11 moon mission and I watched this awesome documentary on the beeb, "For All Mankind". It has amazing footage of the Apollo missions and a Brian Eno soundtrack. Really inspiring stuff.

So this mix has an Apollo moon missions theme. Don't worry though, it is still as random as always, so hopefully there will be a little bit of something for everyone.

Just in case you are interested the moon rover pictured was part of the Apollo 15 mission in 1971. This mix is dedicated to all the brave men and women of NASA etc...
