I may have worded my comment before badly. Feeling  so real  and
Everytime you touch me are great songs. I would like to see more like
them, also Ah Ah. More of those uplifting songs on the new album.

What a shame, maybe Moby could have made at least one of the songs on that
crap CD listenable with his remix :)

You got that right Brad! I don't think I've ever seen such a quality
discrepancy between a Euro release and an American release. If you only
have the US version then you have NOT heard "Movement In Still Life" let's
put it that way. The US version is an abomination of the International one.

Subject: (mobility) Rebirth via the ftp?

A while back someone had posted Rebirth or some other killer music programs
on one of the ftp sites...I finally got DSL and I wish I wish I wish someone
would direct me to that site again or repost the program because I've been
dying to get my hands on it and finally get to create my own personal
music...

please and thanks

I'm sure Moby lets nothing but his own neurosis pick the best tracks. As for
the pop album. Those of you who've read Replay will know that he had already
written a number of straight pop tracks for Play. But at the time he said he
would probably put this kind of thing out through a different name. Perhaps
on a different label. I reckon the real strings obsession, and increasingly
acoustic, soulful versions of tracks he's been playing may offer an idea of
where he's going.
String quartet soul pop anyone?

punk - he's been there
boy-band - he's a boy who's been in a band of boys
ambient jungle - haven't heard that one for years but I thi9nk there was an
ambient jungle version of one of the tracks on Everything... (Brad, Mark any
ideas?)
Goth - oh my god every album he;'s done has got a hint of Goth to it! Those
minor chords, those strings - that Joy Division post punk obsession. There
have been times when he could have appeared wearing black mouthing the words
to a Sisters of Mercy record.

What you can guarantee is that he'll never do the same thing twice. Although
he may release the same record ten times!

have fun

You may have all seen this already but...


Top US stars line-up against Bush and global warming.

Beastie Boys, Moby and Alanis Morissette head the line-up of US stars who
have joined forces to oppose President Bush's controversial energy policies
and Bush's refusal to ratify Kyoto.

The Beasties, Moby, Jackson Browne, James Taylor, Barenaked Ladies, Tom
Petty, Phish and Dave Matthews Band have pledged joint support for the
anti-Bush New Power Project. Using the artists' web-sites, fan email lists
and gigs/tours/festivals, the New Power Project hopes to speak directly to
hundreds of thousands of fans and persuade them to take direct action in
signing petitions and sending messages to their members of Congress and the
Bush administration itself.

Beastie Boy Mike Diamond said that Bush's policies were: "...heading us back
to a time when humanoids dragged their knuckles on the ground. This is our
world. If each person goes to the www.saveourenvironment.org live Web site
right now and sends a message, we can stop this."

In related news, former Doors drummer John Densmore and blues singer Bonnie
Raitt were amongst those arrested and charged with disorderly conduct during
a US Rainforest Action Network (RAN) demonstration against US logging
company Boise Cascade Corporation. Activists accused the logging company of
anti-environment campaigns and of trading in 'old-growth' timber.

Oakey - sometimes good, often bad, usually going through the motions. I
think he lost his ability to really tune into the (UK) audience a few years
back. Although I've friends who heard him spin in Singapore who said he was
the bomb.
For my money, I would say that DJ Craze and Dexta (Avalanches) are much
better than Oakey. But then I guess the purists among you would call these
people turntablists. And that's a bit like comparing the Rolling Stones with
Moby, or Pink Floyd with the Sex Pistols.
In terms of clubbing DJs my favorite at the moment is Adam Freeland. And
Carl Cox is always, always a delight.

someone

the ip is: ftp://129.93.206.63

I'd also like to take this opportunity to repost a message that never got
through, I think I sent it a few weeks back but on the wrong email account,
so here it is:

Hello all.  For those who don't know or for those who forgot, I run the
mobilty ftp.  I set up and intended for this FTP to be used for this list
exclusively for the exchange of rare/hard to find/unable to find Moby stuff.
When i first started it about 2 years ago it was great, and since I've been
back there's been some good traffic, nothing like it used to be, but still
it seems like many people use it.  Mobility is the ONLY group that should
know about the address, I've not given it out to ANYONE else.  HOWEVER that
hasn't seemed to stop some fucker/his fucker friends from trying to use MY
bandwidth, MY disk space, and MY FUCKING time to upload Warez of games,
movies and other garbage.  Its SOMEBODY on this list, or at least someone
told their online buddies about it, whatever it was I hope this person rots
in hell having his/her genitals painfully raped for the rest of eternity,
and by the way, FUCK YOU.  Sorry to vent this out on everyone else, so
please ignore it if it doesn't apply to you.

If you are doing this, or if you know who is doing it, STOP it/tell them to
stop it.  Obviously your files don't last very long on my site.  I check
them periodically and delete them right away; your uploading is in vain, so
knock it the fuck off.

If this continues I'll have to ban all guests and send people individual
passwords to use the site, which I don't want to do, its a hassle for me and
others, better yet I could just shut down the FTP for good and you can be
satisfied in the knowledge that your bullshit actions have deprived the rest
of the list from a nice tool for enjoying Moby.

NO movies, NO non-Moby music, NO-games, NO application software; FUCK OFF.

Chris
FTP sysop

i'd say the nyc jungle mix of every time you touch me has a definite
ambient edge to it, so there you go. :)

I wish musicians (and actors) would stop trying to be environmental
experts, when even the scientists don't agree on what's happening to
the environment...

Subject: (mobility) Rant On Area 1 (part 1)

       So, it starts at 3:15pm when I arrive at Shoreline to see the starting
acts. The time on the ticket says at 3:30pm the show starts....problem #1.

       After realizing that I'd missed the first couple of acts, I trek to
the "Ford Focus" arena (which seems so damn wrong that words cannot express
my disgust for Ford and for the ugly econo-shit car that's sponsoring this
tent...problem #2) where I go to check out Derrick May. That was the first
good thing I'd had happen so far. The tent was lively and well adorned with
great visuals (with the exception of Ford logo's), fun music, and a good
vibe.

       We decided to get something to drink. I bought the smallest, and only
size bottled water for, how much you ask?...$3. "$3!", I asked the plump
underpaid woman at the counter. She shrugged and said sorry when I explained
I have the same water at my grocery store for $0.34. A 300 percent mark
up....problem #3.

       After wandering around for a while we went back to the tent to catch
Timo Mass. A great set and still a good vibe. Lots more people, but great fun
all around. No problems.

       We wandered up to the lawn for New Order. Herein lies many problems.

           #1. We paid $50 a piece for the tickets and it only got us a wet
lawn seat.
           #2. New Orders sound was utter shit.
           #3. A man puking in front of us passed out and it took medical a
good 20 minutes
                 to reach him...and he was right next to open stairs for the
staff.
           #4. Didn't New Order say they'd never play a Joy Division
song....ever?

      I suppose that's all for part 1. More to follow.

                        Dj Tripp
