Phenomenal men.
September 18, 2007 on 6:09 pm | In EntertainmentMoby (born Richard Melville Hall, September 11, 1965), is an American songwriter, musician and singer.
He was born in Harlem, New York, and raised in Darien, Connecticut. After eight UK Top 40 singles in the 1990s with techno music, his biggest success was his more mainstream album Play, released in 1999, which sold 10 million copies worldwide. He continues to record and release music today.
His parents nicknamed him Moby soon after birth, partly after the novel Moby-Dick, which was written by Herman Melville, his great-great-great-great uncle. He plays keyboard, guitar, bass guitar and drums. He has also released music under the names Voodoo Child, Barracuda, UHF, The Brotherhood, DJ Cake, Lopez, and Mindstorm. He has received a lot of attention for his political, environmental and religious beliefs.
On 24 February, 2007 Moby announced on his online journal that he was currently in the process of whittling down 400 songs to about 20 for a new album due out around September.
However, on the 20th of August, 2007 Moby stated on his journal that he is in the stages of mixing his new album, which is to be a Dance record. An “eclectic” one in his words. Due out by February.
Moby made a remix compilation for the video game BioShock along with Oscar The Punk, titled “The BioShock EP“. The disc was made available by purchasing the collector’s edition of the game. The “BioShock EP” features three remix tracks and one original recording: Beyond the Sea, God Bless the Child and Wild Little Sisters.
