Previously, Bowie’s record label have released long lost demos and an EP of his final recordings to mark the occasion, but this year’s commemoration has taken a slightly different route. As revealed in the caption to a career-spanning montage on his official Instagram account, David Bowie’s music can now be found on TikTok. Users on the social media app will be able to soundtrack their videos with iconic tracks, including “Let’s Dance” and “Space Oddity”. So far, fans’ comments show a mixed reaction; while some suggest his music deserves better, others have praised the attempt to keep his legacy alive with a younger demographic. On New Year’s Day, NTS Radio aired an archival conversation between Bowie and Ryuichi Sakamoto from 1983. Two new David Bowie EPs were also released last year, while a selection of live recordings and reissues – including a version of The Man Who Sold The World with its original title – have seen the light of day since the musician’s death on January 10, 2016.
