There's samples in pretty much everything he does. Who knows where it was lifted from though.

this tune is pretty good ...

Moby has such an outstanding ability to tap into emotions . The 1st time I heard this CD I was amazed.

I agree with all the comments here about the mood of this one. Somehow it pulls me in. I like it.

I swear I've heard that tune before...

Did Moby sample it from somewhere else?

I keep expecting the Dream Academy choir to break in ("Life in a Northern Town"). Yes, same key as the Steve Earle, so it segues nicely.

Not such a fan of this one, but a beautiful transition into Steve Earle!

Have you seen, "Children of Men"? The mood invoked here reminds me of that bizarre but excellent film.

The complete package.

Moby's "Play" was used so much in commercials from 1999 to 2001 that it now sounds dated much faster than it should've.

A generic black and white box of crap.

Hmmmm... Flanger!

Hmmm, good job too. Once small spelling mistake and you would have ended up in Tora Bora...

Creepy, but nice.

Sounds like a multitude of people chanting as a giant space ships lands. Kinda like close encounters.

I can't listen to this one all the time, but when the mood strikes, I really love the stark, haunting mood it evokes.

Moby - a one man symphony. He plays all the instruments, production, etc.... Another talanted but little understood artist.

ok.
i am ready for my soylent green transformation now.

+1 for Bora Bora.

Like the song too.

This song always reminds me of the 2 weeks I spent in Bora Bora... mmmmm topless women and french cuisine in the tropics.

Why isn't it possible to skip a track on RP?! Sometimes, not to often but sometimes, I'd nee this magic button that makes Bill skip a track. This is one of them.

Maaaan, am I happy that you can't discuss taste.

as a surreal dreamy soundscape, this is too stilted and indecisive...its repetetiveness caused me to track-skip on the cd

Dreamy.

A great set, Bill. It keeps up a theme and with excursions into music that is new to me.
I found that this song was enjoyable after a bit...

I saw this guy in concert in Germany back in 1997. Back then he was a grung/punk artist and the show was very entertaining. I liked him better back then.
