Moby improvised ambient record

2020-12-24 by Raul Stanciu STAFF | 25 Comments
Moby recorded an album worth of improvised ambient music during the first months of the pandemic. He imposed himself 3 rules for these songs: nothing was written or rehearsed beforehand, he didn't allow himself to go back and change or edit any of the improvised performances & every part of the process had to be calming. Performance videos for all the tracks will be uploaded on Youtube every day until December 30.

Live Ambient Improvised Recordings, Vol. 1 can be streamed starting today, December 24 -> http://moby.la/lair-vol1We

This sounds a lot like Music for Airports' Eno era

If I remember correctly he claimed to have slept with her, and she called him out for being a lying creep

it was dumber and creepier than that, he wrote about them fucking in his book, and then when she called him out, he doubled down and released a bunch of creep photos of them hanging out

Reading about the Natalie Portman shit just has me cringing and laughing but mostly just feeling sorry for this dude and how deluded he's let himself become and how hard he's trying to get cool points and remain semi-relevant. There goes any little respect I had for the man, too bad, I enjoyed some of his music. "We Are All Made of Stars" is a killer song.

From all accounts (besides Moby lol) that’s how it went down. Improvised ambient recordings are simply the burden of proof

i did a little diggin and hes actually an incredibly damaged person. his dad committed suicide before he was 5 and he grew up as white trash in a rich town. add on being pasty bald and scrawny. his book actually looks interesting - its called 'Then It Fell Apart'

saw an interview with him where he p much said he was a long time addict of everything and was mentally unwell the majority of his life. said hes fine never having anybody to date now and is spiritual and shit.

kinda changed my view on the dude.

most of his music isnt my thing tho, lol

super solid ambient record a la brian eno. that said, track 10 is an instrumental copy of Electric President's 'the violent blue' if you listen to the notes and progression
