The 25th anniversary of David Bowie’s album ‘hours…’ will be celebrated with two special digital EPs, featuring four previously unreleased tracks.

‘Hours…’ was initially released on September 21, 1999, marking Bowie’s 22nd studio album, and the first album by a major artist to be made available for download. The album was a top five hit in the U.K, but failed to hit the top 40 in the U.S.

Speaking at the time, Bowie said, “I am hopeful that this small step will lead to greater steps by myself and others, ultimately giving consumers greater choices and easier access to the music they enjoy.”  The album featured the songs “Survive” and “Seven,” two of three singles released in the U.K.
