It’s a bit mad - but a song I wrote (and that Iggy Pop sings on) for the current moonlandingz album(which is mad enough) is currently being used in a global Levi’s advertising campaign ft Shaboozy & that funny dude from The Bear. Fifty quid & a pair of denim undies can’t be sniffed at..or can they?
I hope the various members of @themoonlandingz.bsky.social have made a nice pile of $ from this Levis advert. They've all been working their arses off for 15/20 years on various artistic ventures and deserve every penny. 👏👏👏

Iggy Pop interview in the new GQ gives a brief mention to our latest single featuring the man himself..song written by Adrian Moonlandingz aka @acidklaus.bsky.social ‘A beautiful song’ says Iggy ..no higher praise than if it was said by God Himself!

The Moonlandingz drop "It’s Where I’m From" ft. #IggyPop 🎤💔 Written w/ one finger after a bike crash (seriously). 15 yrs later, it’s a slow, bruised ballad on life & loss. #TheMoonlandingz #TransgressiveRecords #BestNewMusic2025 #Week17

My Mum passed away on New Year’s Day this year. It’s been a tough few months. I’d of normally of sent her my new record today but sadly I can’t do that anymore. Instead I wrote about the songs/artist she gifted to me as a child for @brooklynvegan.bsky.social x
