David Bowie is Releasing a 36-Year Old Song as an iPhone App for Remixing

One of my favorite-ever songs, Golden Years by David Bowie, will be released as an iPhone app for fans to remix and create their own "oddities." Speaking of oddities, if you can't wait until June 6th when the Golden Years app is released, you can try your hand at the Space Oddity one for $2 now.

Eight tracks will be available for tinkering with on the Golden Years one, whittled down from the original 16: Bowie's vocals; backing vocals; the 12-string guitar; guitar; bass; drums; harmonium and percussion. If you need to familiarize yourself with the track before June 6th, check out the YouTube video above. [Music Radar via Guardian Apps Blog]
