During an intense period of my life, surrounded by punk rock rebellion, miles of dust and decay, deafening volumes, and emotional upheaval, somebody dropped the needle on Moby’s Play. Nothing that summer, or any summer since, has had such an impact on my psyche. Not to be overly sentimental, but have you ever heard a record and immediately felt like it spoke directly to your exact situation at that exact moment in time? Well for me, Moby does that. He takes the craziest sounds from the strangest places and he orchestrates them into this beautiful symphony of sorrow, sadness, salvation and the sublime.
On June 30th he will release Wait For Me. I’m unsure of what the entire album will sound like, and I hesitate to ever compare Moby’s individual projects to…well anything else out there. He free falls through genre’s using his instinct and talent like a parachute. He has said of this project that he, “decided to just make records that were more personal, maybe more experimental, and a little more challenging, maybe not as easy to like, but things that I found to be artistically and creatively more satisfying.”
We have a little taste of it for you here, you tell me? Moby? Moby Not?
