Awesome to see this. One of my favorite songs to listen to that can get a pumped up feeling is Go! by Public Service Broadcasting where they use the voices from here in the song. I knew the source was Apollo landing, and it's cool to listen to the words from their origination. [0] [this video]

Recommends morsch · 2017-12 · on “The triumph and near-tragedy of the first Moon landing”

I had the 15 minutes to spare. :) The go calls as well as some other chatter feature prominently in the song Go! by Public Service Broadcasting: [this video] (The Louis La Roche remix is also great.) The whole album is spaceflight-sample-themed.
