Over the summer I went through some old CD's and then I rediscovered a gem of an album - The The "Dusk" from 1993. That made me curious about what Matt Johnson does today. So I clicked into his homepage, and found out that he had made the score to a documentary called "Moonbug". And after watching the trailer, I have to say it might be good documentary that Nichola Bruce have made about Steve Pyke and the Apollo space pioneers.
update: You can buy and stream some of the album here.
Here is a little more about the film from the web page:
"Bitten by the ‘Moonbug’, photographer Steve Pyke set out on a journey across America in his search to meet and photograph the Apollo space pioneers. A journey in which he was to meet the adventurers, risk takers and dreamers who were behind one of the most historic endeavours of our time.
From living rooms, and moonscape deserts, to Cape Canaveral, Steve captures these men in frank, revealing portraits, while unravelling their very personal and divergent memories.
Documented by filmmaker Nichola Bruce with rare archive footage and an original score by The The (Matt Johnson), Moonbug is both a photographic road trip and an exploration of how photographs become signposts for history."
Enjoy! <3
