There was a big Tent where Moby was on SUnday at about 5:00 and he did a DJ set and it was so good. He looked like he was having fun doing that also. and there weren't posters just flyers like you get for raves that had the cover of play on it. I took some pics and when they get developed I will put some net. Doesn't play just rock, Crank it up and blast it!!! Thanks Moby for the present for my ears. - -SUN ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 4 Jun 1999 10:24:43 -0500 From: "Stegenga, Scott" Subject: (mobility) Play Notes. Folks here at work cant stop listening to the CD. They love the old/new styles that Moby blends together. I work at Tunes.com, we do the websites for rollingstone.com, thesource.com, and downbeatjazz.com. And someone here just stopped by my desk to give me a free copy of it too. I love my job. One thing that intrigues me about Moby is his Christianity. I am a Christian, plain and simple. I go to church just about every sunday when I can, I believe in God, and when I read Moby's little essays on life in the liner notes of his work, he sparks my curiosity on certain issues. Now I may not agree with every word he says, but for the most part, I give the 'right on' to what he says because I believe in the same things, I'm just not as vocal I guess. The thing about this musical styles that I really admire is his what I'd call 'angelic' styles where it seems like the music should be played 'up there' if you catch my drift. Songs like 'Feeling So Real' and 'Help me to Believe' and even 'Natural Blues' have this, dare I say, 'God quality' to them. Here i go, buh buh buh... Its just my thoughts coming out. - --------------------------------------------- Scott Stegenga Tunes.com (formerly JAMTV/RollingStone Network) ...same company, more stuff... 312-642-7560 x109 http://www.tunes.com http://www.rollingstone.com http://www.thesource.com http://www.downbeatjazz.com http://www.rsradio.com ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 4 Jun 1999 10:31:18 -0500 From: "Daniel Orion Davis" Subject: Re: (mobility) Play Notes. > The thing about this musical styles that I really admire is his what I'd > call 'angelic' styles where it seems like the music should be played 'up > there' if you catch my drift.

Its just my thoughts coming out. actually this makes a lot of sense to me...Something I said when trying to explain my love of Moby's music to my sister, was that it was so much more spiritual than most music out there...not because of the things he writes about his religion (I am not a Christian, but am very spiritual and have great respect for his beliefs--thos of any open-minded Christian, really), but because of the way it makes me feel -- transcendant Buckoe ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 4 Jun 1999 08:50:13 -0700 (PDT) From: the happi monchichi Subject: RE: Re[2]: (mobility) FatbodySlimRock oh yes,yes! see the pretty colors...^_^ acid words. oral hallucinations. tehee. - --- Chris Kloehr wrote: > > >Uh, is it me, or do others have no idea what > Frankz is talking about > > > > >sometimes?

And Fatboy Slim in the same sentence. (LOL) oh my god i am just killing myself now...anyway, seriously, when I heard "Bodyrock" the first time, I didn't think it was as good because I thought it would sound like you-know-who. So I thought it was a bandwagon-jumping imitation, and a 2nd-rate one at that. Still cool, cuz its MOBY, but still...... But I listen to it later andd realize, THIS ROCKS! Its not supposed to sound like Fatboy Just Plain Fat! Its just another cool Moby track! So please, don't even compare. As for FBSlim, I'm gettin kinda a sick of him. Him being the soundtrack to Tampax commercials and all. (note, im just exagerating, i dont know if Tampax ever used him in a commercial, but hey, its possible) I remember hearing "Goin Out OF My Head" and "Punk to Funk" in early 1997, MMAAAAYBE late '96 (probly not tho.) And I thought, wow, this has some commercial potential. Little did I know that a year later, it would be on the radio. And in two years, every commercial and movie trailer, plus Top 40 radio. I still think "Punk To Funk" is the best FBS song ever. Probly cuz i havent heard it a million times. Even "Gangsta Trippin" my favortie from the new album is getting mad stale. Its like, I can listen to it, but Its just...been done you know? Like the Prodigy, theyre cool, theyre good, but theyve just got old. And like Dig Yr Own Hole, only the last 2 tracks I can even listen to, and theyre getting old too. I still love the first Chems tho. The new album sounds a bit iffy, tho... Oh yeah, new Rolling Stone gives PLAY 4 stars. ROCK! And, local WPKN DJ/Reporter for the New Haven Register reviews PLAY this week (good review) and puts a MOBY picture in the paper.

Anyway, anyone >know what is up with that 2 CD Come on Baby? I have never seen that one >before. Here's a piece from Daniel Cermans discography: COME ON BABY [4 Nov 1996] UK 2CD, Mute, CDMute200 NOTE: Limited edition of 10000 copies worldwide, including 5000 in the UK. This single is a double CD in a black rubber sleeve. Live tracks were recorded at the Splash Club in July 1996. Promos have "MOBY" and "COME ON BABY" in orange print, rather than the black rubber impressions of the public version. The 2CD of Come On Baby is considered a real collectors item and is pretty rare. I got my copy of this single a few days ago along with the Smashing Pumpkins - 1979 (remixes) single with a Moby mix. >Anything I have that is hard to find? Ahum..Are you kidding? I consider these CDs VERY hard to find: - - *Go - - *Move - Promo - - *Come on Baby - 2CD Leather Bound Version - - Honey - 2trk Promo - - *Honey - 6trk Promo - - *Run On - Promo - - UHF - UHF - - Drop a Beat - - James Bond Theme - Promo (2 copies) - - *Hymn - Promo Could you please give me all the info you can get (catalog#, rel. year, country, label) about this Hymn promo?
