    So we hear from DEF that When  My Honey Come Home will be around in
June/July, which is a single from the forthcoming album. Now, Moby left
Elektra and is without a record deal. Ihsoccer tells us Moby told him at
Syracuse that hopefully we'll see the album in February. Honey won't come
out 8 months previous to the album, right? (wouldn't bother me, but it
doesn't seem likely)So what's the deal? Anyone with info? Speculation?
    My guess is that we won't see Honey until Moby inks a deal.

Moby has a record deal. It is with Mute records and it covers Great
Brittain, Europe and the rest of the world, excluding North America. Mute
will release Honey in July, a fill record will probably follow on Mute in
the fall, and then North America will get to hear it when he signs a deal
with a domestic company.

Subject: (mobility) electronic vixens and such

hi all,

i am at a loss right now. i just started to try to come up with at least
one female electronic artist. the only one i can conjur would be ruby, and
she is a part of the band, leslie rankin i think is her name-and the stuff
they do isn't even techno, electronic maybe.

but hey-where's the electronic estrogen?

so, moby and heather nova, eh? she has a whispery vox in some of her tunes,
but i can imagine for a clash cover she might have to toughen up. will it
be a rock song, or somethin' else?

i definitely agree with elektra not using their marketing/promotional means
to make moby a little more high profile.

when spin magazine hailed 'eiw' as one of the (or possibly 'the') best
albums of 94/95, you'd figure elektra would've jumped on the band wagon and
issue say a remix album to follow 'eiw' (a domestic one). with so much time
elasping during the release of eiw and ar, you'd figure elektra would bank
on the success of eiw, because with all intents and purposes, 'eiw' was a
critically acclaimed disc, and still is. i think ilts should've came out
after eiw, and then people and radio would've tuned in, and at least,
notice moby for his diversity in musical styles (which was what made eiw
such a critical success).

but there is a downside-who wants moby to become plastered on every radio
station/video channel in north america. the funny thing is 'james bond
theme' would've put him in the same league as say, proppelerheads w/shirley
bassey doing 'history repeating', in the novelty electronica genre.

in my years as a music director at college radio, no one from
elektra/warner ever asked me how moby was doing on our playlist and the
promo material was next to nothing. where moby might be a radio
programmer's nightmare, college radio could've helped bring light to moby
via airplay. look what it did to no doubt and bush et al.

just my .02

cheers,
i would like to be known as dan #11, but i think i am #3 or #4?

From: Tim Beecher <[e-mail]>
Subject: (mobility) Hello.

Hello people,

I'm a relatively new Moby fan - my first taste was
'Everything is wrong' and I was pretty impressed. But the
ultimate was 'Animal Rights' for me(I also like 'I like to
score'by the way). Personally, (and I hope I don't get
lynched for saying this!?)I think Moby should stick to
hardcore/techno punk, though I do like some of the
techno/'dance' stuff. I suppose I'm pretty ignorant when it
comes to dance/techno/ambient, but I like it as well as
most musical styles. My favourite bands/singers, etc.
besides Moby are The Jesus and Mary Chain, P.J. Harvey,
Cocteau Twins, The Levellers, New Model Army,
Spiritualised, The Cure, Orthodox church music/choir, John
Tavener and various classical, some Massive Attack, Beastie
Boys, The Damned, The Dead Kennedy's - you get the picture!?

Because I'm pretty stressed with work these days I haven't
been keeping up to date with the latest in the world of
music. I'm planning to go with a few mates to the
Glastonbury festival (the U.K.) and was wondering if
anybody knows if Moby's playing there? Scott - I understand
you're heading for Phoenix. However, if you haven't already
got the tickets and Moby is playing Glastonbury (and you
haven't been to Glastonbury before) I'd advise you go to
Glasto (hopefully it won't be flood conditions this
year!?). Phoenix is a good festival but Glasto is better -
there again that's my opinion.

Ta-ra for now,

>TiM B.

there's hanin from atari teenage riot.
the chick from xorcist who's name i forget now.
jade 4 u.
there was lee newman of gto, but she's dead.
you got dj rap.

umm...those are the only females i can think of that actually make the music
and don't just sing.

HERE'S SOME THOUGHTS ABOUT MOBY:

i like moby's animal right alot too...and will be sad if he releases a whole
cd of dance music.
i'm not sure how convincing he can be to me doing dance music anymore.
because he's been out of the scene for so long, i think he may have lost
his grip on it.  dance music is one of those technological things where what
makes it successful is whatever "new trick" is in vogue at the time.
i'm not sure if moby is up on wha's in vogue in dance music these days.
he might cum off trying to sound too much like he's been there the whole
time.  or might sound like a wannabe.  i'm very excited to hear his new
stuff though.  extrememly curious.  i hope i'm wrong.

from,
ryu

What do you mean by "out of the scene for so long"?  He's still been making
dance music, despite AR and EOE, etc.  Hasn't he been doing a lot of
remixes?  How do we know that he's hasn't been working on dance music
privately since EIW?  I think that would still be the same as if he had
been releasing albums.  It just doesn't seem to me that Moby's been too far
from it.  He also still plays a lot of dance music in concerts from what I
hear.  Anyway, EIW wasn't really that long ago was it?  Maybe I've lost
track of time.

i don't know dan L......
i like contrasting versions of songs
it can create even a greater tension in the meanings of words

like someone practically whispering
screw you
as opposed to yelling it

anyway....does laurie anderson count as a female electronic artist?

shit ryu
you're definitely right about some of that
especially with d n b
which is very tricks oriented
but people will always dance to music that moves them even if it's not
chalk full gimmicks and the latest bleeps and buzzes
which is really the biggest problem with most dance music
as it is hyper up-beat en vogue and all that
half of everybody seem to lack a true soul to their music>>>>>>>>>

moby....i would imagine is only beginning to find his true soul as he
has ventured many places
and i would hope is finally ready to venture home!!!!!!!!

and that will be away from elektra


much love today

Subject: (mobility) blur/moby/prod/etc.

hey folks, i'm staying home from school today cuz i'm
sick...(ACHOOO!!!! Bless Me!!)

anyway, i also got prod's charly/EITP single w/moby's mix of the
latter tune.  it's kind of nice, but like the original version, it's
kind of bland (IMHO). it's good though. IT's kinda weird, it doesn't
really sound like moby, it sounds way too prodigy (well gee i wonder
why...) but overall its pretty good. i'll probably like it more as i
listen to it more. i like the fairground mix a lot though, its
definitely wayy better than the album version (which as i sed i was
never a big fan of anyway)
but the second half of the cd is just blazin, worth the price of it
alone.

also when i was at tha store, i saw blur's new 2cd import "Bustin and
dronin" which has 1 disc of remixes and 1 live ep. it's kool, it's a
double import from japan but its like $20. well when i have a lil mo
$$$$ ill go get that. (what i'm really looking for is blur's leisure
album...can ANYONE find a copy!?!?!?!? PLEEZ!!?!?!?)

another thing, does anyone get the prevue channel? (on comcast cable
here, it's channel 31) its this channel that has a split screen...on
the top half is like commercials and interviews and clips from movies
n  news n stuff, and the bottom half is a scrolling of what's on tha
boob tube. well, i've been listening to the background music lately,
and it's getting more and more moby-ish. It's like, they make cheep
rave songs and cover them in distorted guitars, and sometimes add diva
howlings. like one song ends, i swear, with the same "OH
YEAHHHHHH..........." that moby uses in "Thousand". I also noticed
that one song tries to copy the break from Chembro's "Song To The Siren"
well if u get this channel listen for like 5 minutes and youll c what
i'm talking about. maybe you can download the music at the channrel's
website,
<http://www.prevue.com>

ok, bye.

Opus III or Delerium doesn't really count as electronic music,
does it?

Are Moby and Heather Nova going out with each other?

meee tooo.
out of my moby stuff, the 3 albums i find myself playing over and over again
are EIW, AR, and voodoo child: end of everything.. EIW and AR just cause
theyre so damn eclectic.. i love the instrumentals, and i find that its the
guitar- driven tunes that annoy my neighbors i enjoy the most.. songs like you
and come on baby are just so fucking honest.. and voodoo child is so peaceful
to fall asleep to.. i'd love another 1/2 rock, 1/2 instrumental contribution
from the man more than anything.

I like both styles more or less similarly, and dont mind what he
does.

I wish I had plenty of time to be up to date with music.. I should
have dedicated my life to music, and not computers, to achive that :)
