I must be doing something >wrong but I can't figure it out. AARRRRRRRRGH! I noticed on the CD it says, 'may not work on NEC CD Rom Drives'. Is yours NEC? Mine is, and I haven't seen the videos in three years! There's some interesting stuff on there including a Moby mix game that doesn't seem to work too well (you mix in sounds while a techno beat plays in the background but for some reason the sounds always lag behind). Good luck with it. Andrew _______________________________________________________________ Get Free Email and Do More On The Web.

I had a few questions / comments, so I'll get right to them... 1) I found an import single at CDNow of the Moby "James Bond Theme." They want $10.50 for it. It seems to have quite a few mixes on it, but I'd like to get a few opinions on it. Anybody have any? 2) Does anyone know where I can get Moby t-shirts? I've seen them in pictures, but have never seen one for sale anywhere.... 3) To whomever mentioned that Moby had abandoned his anti-drinking stance... Yes, I had read about that. I even went so far as to write to Moby (via regular mail) and ask why... I (of course) got no reply. It's kind of contradictory to be vegan and drink, 'cause there's a bit of interaction between the two... But, that's ANOTHER mailing list... ;o) 4) For whatever it's worth, I'd have to say that Hymn (This Is My Dream) is the best Moby song ever. Closely followed by Move. Shining is good, too. And... ;o) 5) I glanced through the archives of this list, and noticed something about a Moby compilation tape list... What was this? 6) There is no number 6. 7) I saw on CDNow that Moby was supposed to remix a song by Soulfly. Anyone have this or heard it? Well, as to not wear out my welcome on the list, I'll quit now. - - Chip (wishing he hadn't made plans for next weekend... I drove to Dallas to see Pitchshifter, so why not Moby? [BTW, if you like Pitchshifter's music, DO NOT MISS them live... I saw them twice in one week, once here in Memphis, then drove to Texas. They are THAT good. Plus. they are all vegetarians... =]) ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 24 May 1999 00:37:44 -0500 From: "Brad Caviness" Subject: Re: (mobility) stuff Hey Chip, Just wanted to say hi.

What i would say to Moby's essays is, that i highly appreciate them. I'm not much convinced they'd make a lot of people better, just because (as it was said here before), the people who get to read them are not the ones, who should mostly become better. But the essays give me a lot. They empower my belief and give me a hope that things will be better once, because there are still many people who share moby's thoughts and want to be better and make others better. This might sound a bit fundamentalistic, with the "turning2better", but it depends on the way you spread your opinions. and writing essays on a booklet of a good CD, is a peaceful one.

It has 6 versions of the James Bond Theme including remixes by: - - Grooverider (jungle) - - Da Bomb (club-house) - - 2 mixes by CJ Bolland (1 bigbeat and 1 trance mix) - - Dub Pistols (electro) I really like the Grooverider and the Dub Pistols mix! Nice single. >2) Does anyone know where I can get Moby t-shirts? I've seen them in >pictures, but have never seen one for sale anywhere....

Anyone >have this or heard it? Yes, I have a magazine in which was a Soulfly contest where you could win the album and some singles including one called "Umbabarraumba" There was a picture of the front of the single and in big letters next to it stood INCL. REMIX BY MOBY. This single wasn't officially released yet during that contest, but when it was officially released I hurried myself to the music store and was really glad to see they had the single... I was less glad to see that there was absolutely NO Moby remix on it! I'm not really into Soulfly, so I didn't buy the single. What could this be?

Now I write: Yes, the Twin Peaks theme sample is why Go is on ILTS, but the ILTS version is different from other versions of Go, because Moby re-recorded his older songs (Go + Ah-Ah) exclusively for ILTS. This version of Go was never on any soundtrack. I think Moby did a great job making a '97 verion of Go! Christian wrote: >um..who or what is this "faithless" people keep talking about? They only happen to be the hottest, most exciting British dance/pop live-act of the moment. Today they play live on Pinkpop in the Netherlands and they will also be on the Belgium 'Werchter' festival. They are VERY popular in Europe. I have 2 albums by them and almost all the singles. Their style is as eclectic as Moby's, they do everything from 'epic-house' ("Insomnia") to stirring ballads ("why go") If you like Moby, you'll like them too!
