I'm really not sure if the distortion was there originally, but it was changed from the 'natural' state of the sample. So your answer is either A) Yes, Moby added it or B)Both. It was already there, but Moby modified it by adding the choral element and possibly by altering it in other ways, too. I've heard the original sample, and the singer sings, "These open doors." It's much, much clearer and easier to recognize and decipher in it's original* state. In "Why Does My Heart...", the added choral element gives it an uplifting, spiritual tone, in my opinion. I think Moby chose to do this because A) it sounds great and is emotionally resonant & B) it fits with the 'introspection' theme that shows up frequenty on Play. I guess I'm one of the few who thinks of this as a happy song. *I heard that sample less/not distorted and modified, but it was already a sample at that point, not the original recording it came from. I need to go back and listen again, but some of the background distortion you mentioned may be audible in the previos incarnation of the sample. The distortion was certainly modifed, though. ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 31 Aug 1999 17:02:46 -0500 From: Rob Skipworth Subject: (mobility) Unreleased Video Hi Folks, When Brad Caviness and I talked to Moby in Dallas last week he said that a video had just been completed for the song Shaumgummi...

Anyway, a few weeks ago a talk show used Porcelain in one of their interview sections, about 2 weeks after that a show called "All Things Considered" gave Play a review, a pretty substanative and positive one, if I had the transcript I would post it, but you have to pay about 15 bucks for it, sorry, don't want to afford that. But they did dub Moby a pioneer in electronic music and said that he "humanizes the usually inhuman electronic medium." Just thought I'd mention those two sightings. Also, for those of you who really like to ponder things; when you listen to "Why does my heart feel so bad", the main voice singing that Moby sampled has back ground noise that is extremely distorted; was this intentional or was he trying to drown out the original music to isolate the main voice and that is a consequence? Those who are into sampling themselves could really help, or if anyone has access to the original recording that Moby sampled could also help. I'm just wondering because the same distortion effect of the background doesn't happen in other samples, or at least it isn't noticable.
