The Trip is an eight-part Channel 4 television series that was first broadcast in 1999. The Trip consists of rarely seen NASA space footage from the earliest days of space exploration to 1990s interplanetary stellar discovery, set to a deftly crafted cutting edge dance music soundtrack. From "we have lift off" to man's first steps on the moon, "the final frontier" to "Houston, we have a problem", The Trip is an intergalactic mind bending space journey into the unknown. It is the brainchild of producer Jacques Peretti. A CD soundtrack for the series was also released by Shifty Disco on 22 March 1999 containing many of the tracks used in the series.
