Quote

A lot of people do talk about the demise of the album, but I still believe that if an artist tries hard to make a great album, people will buy it and listen to it as an album, rather than just a collection of random songs.

I don't know many artists who are happy with themselves all of the time.
Moby
Image
I love to be busy. I'm envious of people who are able to take their spare time and relax. All I like to do is work. Perhaps it's lingering Calvinist guilt?
Moby
Image
I honestly haven't thought much about what to play and where, perhaps i should...it seems like most musicians are better at that than I am.
Moby
Image
I used to have a lot of envy for those musicians who have been universally loved.
Moby

David Lynch is my friend, and I love his movies and his art and his music. Few things make me happier than working with him.

Image
I love that vinyl is actually growing in popularity, and that there are so many great record stores.
Moby
Image
I'm not trying to look for pity or sympathy. I was just surprised that so many people in the world of entertainment seemed to be okay with misogyny and homophobia as long as they were profiting from it.
Moby
Image
Somehow, magically, I've become an electronic musician, and I have a recording studio that looks like the bridge of the Enterprise.
Moby
Image
I'm just fascinated with the world that I can see, but I'm even more fascinated with the world that I can't see.
Moby
Image
I wasn't raised Catholic I just really like the image of a neutral and benign Mary floating around somewhere, being nice to people.
Moby
Image
When I say, 'I love Christ and love the teachings of Christ,' I mean that in the most simple and naive way. I'm not saying I'm right.
Moby
Image
I love lots of different types of music, but it's music that has this up-swelling of beauty and emotion that is most important to me.
Moby
Image
If someone writes a nice review of my record, I feel like I should take them out to dinner or go over and clean their apartment.
Moby
Image
I saw people around me who were falling deeper and deeper into alcoholism and substance abuse. It's seductive because alcohol is amazing and drugs are amazing, they work so well.
Moby
Image
There is a lot of music in the world that I love that does not always get the appropriate exposure.
Moby
Image
I met Elton John at an Interview dinner, and we just sort of became friends. He's got such a wicked sense of humor.
Moby
Image
I don't think I'm a particularly good writer, and I'm not terribly insightful.
Moby
Image
One of the central flaws in the state of contemporary music is that the major record companies have failed to incorporate that simple fact into their business plans. They've come into an industry that's based on idiosyncratic artists and tried to erase every idiosyncratic aspect out of it.
Moby
Image
I feel like once the song is done, you put it out there and if people want to do bizarre remixes, if people want to make strange videos, great. You know, like chaos theory applied to the music business.

When I went to university, I was a philosophy major, but because I'm not very bright I chose to study philosophy at a performing arts school, maybe because the philosophy program there wasn't too rigorous or challenging.
