Subject: (mobility) Another Review...
Once again...here's another review of AR...This time from The Rocket(as
they say, "The Northwest Music and Entertainment Magazine")
Moby
Animal Rights
(Elektra CD)
The most formative years of a child's life are supposedly his
earliest ones. It seems the teenage years, however, were more
influential in the life - or at least the career - of electronic
pioneer and producer, Moby. An adolescent during the first half of the
1980's, Moby's love of synth pop bands like New Order and Echo and the
Bunnymen unarguably led to his deep interest in techno and house music.
Yet the early '80s also brought with them punk and new wave bands like
Public Image Ltd. and Black Flag. Moby's latest effort, "Animal
Rights", makes it clear that he was a product of the early '80s as a
whole.
Moby recently opened for Soundgarden on their European tour, and
the latter's influence on "Animal Rights" is obvious in the album's
metal-punk edge. The bass and guitar on "Face It," for instance, are
as beliberate and oppressive as any of Soundgarden's slower, heavier
pieces. The three-chord structure of "You," on the other hand, pays
tribute to Moby's interest in punk, while the opening mechanized drums
and metallic guitar of "Come On Baby" are reminiscent of Nine Inch
Nails.
Moby hasn't entirely lost his love of the experimental,
interspersing instrumental interludes - many encompassing an entire
synth-spawned string orchestra - throughout "Animal Rights". Nor has
his independent spirit died; Moby played all the instruments on every
song, save two, and engineered the album in his New York Studio. Still
it's telling that "Animal Rights'" best track is a cover of Mission of
Burma's "That's When I Reach for My Revolver."
Judged on its own merits, "Animal Rights" isn't that bad. When
placed within an historical context, problems arise. While Moby's
electronic music made him a leader, his current foray into the world of
metal relegates him to the role of a follower. With "Animal Rights",
the former musicical pioneer has become just another Soundgarden or
Trent Reznor rip-off. Nina Pealman
Ok..me again...just curious..when was that tour w/ Soundgarden..cuz
Moby started slowly turning back to his punk roots in '95(with EIW
)..Also I don't know where Nina hears NIN in Moby's music...I sure
don't..One last thing..I don't think Moby was THAT worried about how AR
would fit in the historical context of music...Seems to me if he had
been..he would have stuck w/ electronic music <shrug>

This message mainly goes out to those subscribed to "mobility-digest".
As you will have noticed before reading this message. You went without

The majordomo system that carries out the mailing functions of this list
was recently upgraded. However, the digest operations got messed up in
the process. It explains why there was such a huge gap and why digest
#17 was so huge (twice the size than normal - because of the que that
sat until forced out today). Anyway, this is just mumbo jumbo and me
trying to fill you.
One last thing (and this goes for digest subscribers only); how do you
like the size of the digests being sent? Please only take digests #1 -
#16 into consideration (#17 was messed up as I have already explained).
Each digest is normally 20 kb - 25 kb per issue. Should this be

Hello Damian!!
There were some difficulties (apparently in communications) with the
labels sending out the CDs for similar promos in past giveaways. To
avoid
any further such incidents we are having Elektra send the MOBY CDs to us
and we are going to send them out ourselves. I will let you know as soon
as
they arrive and are on their way.
I appreciate all of your help and patience!!

what kind of crack was this reporter smoking?...moby is no longer his own
self, but the result of a strange band-mutation?...i wish some reporters
would look beyond the recent history of the preformer. i think that bands
today are copying Prodigy and Chem Bros, just to sound *cool*....moby, as
long as i've listened to him, hasnt followed anyones lead, and i resent that
he is now called a *former music pioneer*.

The name dropping isn't as bad as it usually is, though. Reviewers are so
little minded sometimes. All they can ever think about is NIN. Trent does
great stuff, but he isn't the standard by which all music produced with a
synthesizer is judged. Come on people, think a little when you review.

Oh, come on. Let's not be silly.
While Moby's

This reviewer doesn't really know what she's talking about. As we all know
here, musically, Moby does whatever the hell he wants, whenever he wants,
and the rest of us just have to roll with the punches.
With "Animal Rights",
>the former musicical pioneer has become just another Soundgarden or
>Trent Reznor rip-off.
>
I don't think the reviewer was thinking too hard when she wrote this review.
For example, she writes:
Moby hasn't entirely lost his love of the experimental,
>interspersing instrumental interludes . . . throughout "Animal Rights".
Five sentences later, she writes:
With "Animal Rights",
>the former musicical pioneer has become just another Soundgarden or
>Trent Reznor rip-off.
Get my point?
Just my critique.

okay... at first, i didn't really like AR, but i listened to it a lot
over spring break, and it's pretty good in its own right... BUT, this
nina chick said something about moby going from a pioneer to a
follower? didn't he say on 120 minutes that he was going back to
punk because everyone and their mother is going electronic? wouldn't
that make him a second generation pioneer BACK to punk? or am i just
interpreting what he said completely wrong?
yeah, i listen to neworder and echo, and i don't think moby's music
sounds anything like them... and didn't SPIN totally rape AR with a
rating of 4 (out of 10)? i mean i was disappointed at first, but i
wouldn't have given it a 4... they should judge the album and not
compare it to previous work (which i'm guilty of, and i'll try
not to do it again)...
one thing that pissed me off around the release of AR was hearing
TWIRFMR thrust in the middle of a chilli peppers/nirvana/stone temple
mix... i thought moby deserved a little better rotation than that...
but that's just me...

I have no idea. At first I assumed that it would be a store bought
version but since it's coming from the label directly it could be a
promo version. Who knows, I guess we'll just have to wait and see. I
didn't get too technical with Greg (at CNotes) about the stuff. :)

Nope, haven't heard a thing. If it is to be released today, I'm
surprised that nothing more specific has been mentioned or announced by
Elektra or MCT.
I also think it's strange how Elektra has been timing things. Elektra
(I guess I should say SubPop) released Revolver as a 7" and three weeks
later the album Animal Rights. Then they are supposedly releasing an
actual single for Revolver almost a month after the album. Why not
release Revolver w/the 7"?
I'm sorry but with how things are looking and how trends normally go, I
think we'll be lucky if we see one more single released from the album.
After that it'll be a no go if the sales aren't more than promising.
That's just my feelings, especially when it comes to Elektra. I thought
things were looking up with the relationship between Moby and Elektra,
but not any more. Then again, maybe it's still too early and I'll just
end up eating my words. :)

Subject: (mobility) Animal Rights - Conversion
Okay I too have just picked up our hero's latest work, that being the
'Animal Rights' CD. Want a mini-review?...nope. Aint gonna have it, too many
already posted and I'm sure you'll pass the words in one ear and out the
other. But, my opinion...okay. I like it, I'm not disappointed with this
'new sound' that many have complained about over some messages here and
there because yes, its somewhat his old style (I've not heard the older
'pre-techno' material ala Flipper and such, although Ultra Vivid Scene was
very underrated, an awesome project - Kurt Ralske is better than Cobain) but
is it just me, or can alot of these songs be converted into techno songs as
well? Its already been done with 'Revolver' and I can see alot of tunes
slipping into some remixers hands and being shaped into nice deviant digital
delicacies. My favourites...'Say Its All Mine' and 'Face It' (all f-ing 10
minutes of it..ahhh) and I think they can be reworked into even better
songs. Any other ideas? Does the single for 'Come on Baby' do the same? I'm
lost in the 'singles' domain of Moby knowledge.
I own no singles/imports/bootlegs/interviews/recitations/spoken
word/remixes/acting auditions/phone messages/eraser shreds/etc. from Moby so
maybe I'm in some unchartered territory here, but the music has the same
feel as his earlier work, just a different package. I've already posted this
before a few weeks ago, I just wanted to confirm my thoughts AFTER I heard
the CD myself.
I remember an old interview of Moby's where he said he likes to make music
that sounds good even on a shitty cassette player like one he has at home,
and this latest CD does that theory justice.
Any word on his contribution to 'The Saint' soundtrack? Is it
old/new/unreleased/demo/etc? Tell me.

i think you're right here. it's hard to be a pioneer of electronic music
now that everybody's doing it. moby did his job a few years ago, and
i think he's satisfied with that. by him going back to metal/punk and
trying something kinda new with it (it's a tad different, you gotta admit)
while nobody else is caring about the guitar, he is in fact becoming a
pioneer again. reviewers like that girl don't really know much about what
they are reviewing and it shows.

sorry for the non-mobiness of this message, so to
compensate, here's a question:
if moby was to make a guest appearance on a tv
sitcom, which sitcom would it be, and what would
his roll be?
love,

Hopefully not Friends (I can't believe Chryssie Hynde did that...) or Ellen
(Look, I'm a lesbian...suprised?..uh no.) My vote would be Third Rock from
the Sun. He'd play an alien posing as a musician and his name would be Moby
also (yes, its like the Dennis Rodman cameo, but better). They'd meet him in
a bar or record store.
Or, he could do what alot of other musicians have done...appear on 'The
Adventures of Pete and Pete', but I don't have cable so that's not so good.

Oh man, you read my mind. Reading this took me back to seeing Michael
Stipe on the screen saying "You look like a bona fide sludgesicle man" and
raising his eyebrows and seeing Juliana Hatfield warning big Pete not to
eat the meatloaf in the cafeteria. Great show, even without the musician
cameos....is Pete and Pete still on, and if so, who's done cameos lately?
As to what sitcom Moby would be on....I'm just going to have to vote for
the X-Files...he would fit in SO well with the Lone Gunmen....heck, maybe
we could persuade the producers to make that one guy that always wears the
cool shirts (Ramones, Social Distortion before they became big, etc.) to
wear a Moby shirt....

Yes, Moby appears on the forthcoming sountrack for 'The Saint' along with
alot of other techno artists (Daft Punk, Sneaker Pimps, Chemical Brothers to
name a few).
Check out the website: http://www.virginrecords.com/saint/
And its got some sound samples too. Moby's contribution 'Oil 1' sounds cool.
No word on the release date.
I'm looking forward to the movie not only because of the soundtrack and
Elisabeth Shue (a tasty looking morsel, eh?), but because its based on the
original UK TV series that made Roger Moore famous before he became James Bond.
Ta Ta.

Ahh!!!!!!!! Too cool, I've been waiting forever to see this release

photek, fsol, orbital, sourse direct, and leftfield. it is one of the

I love Wu-Tang clan. Their style of rap is so much better than all these
new "gangsta rap". They aren't promoting violence, they are just rapping
because they love it. This is also true of A Tribe Called Quest, the next
best in my opinion. Two groups, different styles, but the same message.

I went to www.virginrecords.com/saint/artistsall.html and in their bio of
moby, they quoted Dan's Ultimate Moby Page. I listened to the clip of
Oil 1. It's ok. The whole song is probably good.

Hi.
I feel the same way as you do regarding hip hop. I've loved that
genre for quite a while now and I too find the gangsta style way too
played out. While most people seem to feel that "gangsta rap" died
with Eazy E, I think the majority of rappers today still are playing
out that style, especially those from the West side of the US.
Anyway, a Tribe Called Quest are still my favorite hip hop group,
although I found their latest album to be a little too commercial for
my taste, and as a whole dissappointing. It always saddens me to see
my fav. artists make a song "listener" friendly, and not make it how
they want it to sound. I'm not sure if the Tribe succombed to such a
temptation, but I think that their lastest album is very different
from their previous three.
later,
Ben
PS- the Wu tang are my second favorite group. They have a nice raw sound
that no other hip hop artists can touch.

Today is supposed to be the release date for the Revolver remixes. Has
anybody seen them? I just advance-ordered a vinyl release from CDnow,
but didn't see a CD listed.
