i personally dont like his music at all. does anyone like his sound? why? or do you hate it? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Mobys music is boring, and I mean real boring. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
one aspect i found really crappy in his sound |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
moby sucks |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I liked the song porcelain for awile, but not so much any more I used to kind of like him, but then I found other, better music |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
that song has been used in many movies and commercials did you see how his Area : One logo resembled AFX's? |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
i liked his stuff from the early 90s - it had a kind of naive charm about it, much like early prodigy... his album PLAY sucks rhubarb donkey dick |
||||||||
|
|

Rhubarb Donkey Dick! LOL! Yes, I saw that logo, I actually have a shirt with it that I got at the Area:One show in Denver. It was a great concert, the only real letdown being the final set (Moby himself). Outkast and The Roots both put on fantastic shows. |

Just stop here. This bashing is depressing. -P |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I've done no bashing, just stated the facts |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
they definately stole the idea off afx |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

hmm i remember getting play a few summers ago..and really likeing it..so yeah i was into him for a while...then that fall i got to see him live... i bought come to daddy ( my first aphex cd) the same day i bought my moby ticket... needless to say, im not really into moby that much anymore... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I went to see him a while ago at Spirit Fest in Kansas City. He sucked crap, but at that show i was introduced to the boom boom satellites who opened for him. They are a couple of talented japenease men. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hehehe |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i like "IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII'M FEEEEELING SOOOOO REEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAL" that tune is wicked. really. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i think he be alright, like to here some new stuff, from him, play sucked , |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
you look very happy in your pic i must say play was horrible |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
even though i can agree slightly that moby isnt on the same creative level as others. i always find it really funny when a bunch of people who have nothing better to do than post on a message board all day everyday can say a man making lots of money at his art sucks at what he does. the best way to state something sucks is to do something better. sorta like blowing a ship out of the water as apposed to simply flipping the crew off. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
say what you must |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i hate him, pritty much all of his songs are in commertials |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
well, i bought play a long ass time ago when it came out. thought it was half-way decent and liked it for a bit. but after awhile the sound wears too thin and makes you feel nauseated. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i hate moby first of all his music sucks for all the reasons u guys already stated (im not going to go throught them all again) PLUS his stupid little attitude: he tries SO hard to have the "innocent-unoccrupted-honest-modest-little-boy" thing that its quite pathetic really, watching him in interviews. he is so damn proud of how modest he is its funny |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
The thing about Moby's music that I don't like is the way it sounds when you listen to it. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
oh yeah, where can I see this afxish logo of his? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
right here http://www.itasca.com/school/charger/september/areaone.gif |

|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hmmm... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
that is a bit of stretch to say that moby is trying to rip off the aphex logo. the logo does sorta look designers republicish from mid 90s. the world does not revolve around aphex you know. moby, like RDJ, has spread a lot of disinfo and b.s. about himself, but RDJ seems a lot more playful. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
exactly |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah, and he looks like a wuss... I could kick his ass SOOO bad!!!! no, but seriously, his music is alright the first few times, but it's not something I want to listen to constantly I think... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hmm that IS rather like the AfX logo... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Moby is a good guy, I like his music enough. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
His old stuff {which most people havent heard} is pretty .. decent... er... OK I guess. His new stuff bores the hell out of me. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I agree. His older stuff isn't quite as irritating and boring as his new stuff. He seems more concerned with making music he can licence to movies and such than actually making music. I saw an interview with him bitching about how nobody listend to 'play' until he got the songs heard in commercials. Unfortunaly he had licenced every single song to at least one company even before the album was realeased. ; \ |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yeah, his songs are used WORLD WIDE for car commercials and so on, or atleast they were... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
its pretty disgusting that an artist will sell his shit so quickly like its nothing |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
well he must only be in it for the money |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i don't listen to moby, its a waste of time. i don't feel anything when i listen to his music |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
maybe you should step out of the ice cold bath then :P |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah but one can make music and not sell it to a commercial |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
what is wrong with making some money from what you do? if you do a job, you are selling your services? we are all whores. its easy to say someone is a sellout when you have nothing to sell yourself. but now, you cant listen to Play without thinking of commercials. and those dead old blacks sampled on Play don't get a dime. maybe Moby can buy them some really nice flowers to place around their graves, if he even knows who he sampled. Aphex has rarely has sold plenty of stuff too, and if he was not so difficult to work with, he probably would have had lots of other chances to make some money licensing his music. does that him smart or stupid? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah but he has discarded his music to the media. they can bastardize it and put it in whatever they feel like. they could put his music to gay porn if they wanted to, and he couldn't say shit. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i think moby is pretty good actually everyone seems to hate the man,and not his music so much and of course,ive known groups like this to shun any commercially popular music feeling so real is a great rave song too phresch :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
What is this Moby-hater crap???? Yes, I agree, some of his stuff sucks -- but do you all hate Play on the basis that it has been used in a billion ads and commercials? I was surprised by how many people here don't like him.... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Set it up dj! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the area: one logo it's a damn arrow... i can't believe you actually think they got it from the afx logo. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i don't like PLAY because i think the tracks suck - i don't like moby because he is a corporate whore. i agree with UBIK (from philip k dick?) that anyone who earns money is basically whoring their time, and that is why i am planning the revolution with a couple of good buddies ;) isn't there a COMPAQ commercial featuring the music of richard D james? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
NO!! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
As uncool as this may sound I do quite like some of his earlier stuff like GO! and Thousand. Play gets on my nerves now though. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
well i looked up the radio advertising website (rab.co.uk or something) and aphex twin was listed as having had music featured in a COMPAQ commercial |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i remember a summer two years ago or something. i had a very high temperature. And i was lying in my bed almost dying. and i have a memory of listening to Play .It was relaxing. |
