101 Dimensions - July 2019 - Moon Landing 50th Anniversary Special

by The Prog Squatch | 101 D 2019-07

101 Dimensions is a regular program that is broadcast once a week on Progzilla.com, Saturday nights at Midnight (UK). The show features progressive electronic, ambient, and new age music, and no talking.

This weekend marked the 50th Anniversary of the Moon Landing in 1969! Since I happened to be at the helm of 101 Dimensions I decided to do something fun and a little different to celebrate the occasion. I broke from my usual format and stretched the bounds on the music quite a bit! Tune in to hear a wide array of music relating to our beautiful, awe-inspiring satellite and the Greek god whose name the NASA mission bore.
