one of electronic music's most visible and talked-about figures by
far, moby's career comprises many years of work and many many
musical twists and turns. his career stretches all the way back to
early rave and acid-house releases in the late 80's and early 90's
as u.h.f. and voodoo child, through to his much loved/hated
r&b/blues/pop/techno sample cut-ups of today.his most notable
tracks from his early days include "next is the e", "everytime you
touch me" and "into the blue", and the classic "go", as well as
his early albums "ambient" and "early underground". a brief outing
into more rock-oriented territory came with 1996's "animal
rights", followed by "i like to score" in 1997, highlighting his
past movie score contributions (most notably a remix of the "james
bond theme").in 1999 and 2000, moby found unprecedented pop
success with the album "play" and the slew of singles and radio
tracks that came from it ("honey", "run on", "why does my heart
feel so bad?", "natural blues", "porcelain", "southside", and
more). among other things, his appearance as a dj in the foyer of
the 2000 mtv video music awards (wearing a gold suit and playing
two golden copies of "play") led many people to decry him as a
sellout. nonetheless, his follow-up album "18" tinkered very
little with the "play" sound and still received a mostly positive
reception in 2002.besides the many faces of his music, moby also
gathers controversy for his outspoken religious, dietary and
animal rights views, as well as persistent rumors that his live
shows are mostly pre-recorded. every moby release from the
mid-90's onward has borne the text "animals are not ours to eat,
wear or experiment on. thanks to christ."
