To celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Apollo 11 moon landing on July 19, Brian Eno will release an ‘Extended Edition’ of his landmark 1983 ambient album Apollo: Atmospheres & Soundtracks, recorded with his brother Roger Eno and Daniel Lanois.

The trio have reconvened to record an entire album of new material for the release, subtitled For All Mankind – the title of the Al Reinert documentary which Apollo: Atmospheres & Soundtracks was originally designed to soundtrack.
