Electro-dance pioneer Moby publishes one of his most melancholic and majestic soundscape CDs of his career.
Born Richard Melville Hall, 11 September 1965 in Harlem, New York City, nowadays Moby is well known around the world and a leading figure in the commercialization of techno music. In 1991 Moby took the Twin Peaks theme, under the guise of "Go", into the UK Top 10. He is an all around talent and has composed profoundly yearning and lush songs that make you want to cry in joy, sorrow, lament and angst. He's truly a techno master who creates songs inducing mania to sounds that will arouse feelings of pity, compassion, sympathy and sorrow.
His new Album "Wait For Me" is a tender, refined and predominantly ambient CD of electronic music. With help from some adept female vocalists, Moby recorded the whole album from home -in his bedroom, in fact.
We recommend listening closely to some of the great tracks like “Division” laden with vintage synthetic strings. Also, “Hope is gone," which is a balled replete with pathos. "Pale Horses" is a brilliant song that is emotive and grievous. The list goes on…

To help farm animals everywhere while buying Moby's new CD, buy it through the Humane Society of the US (link below). "Quite simply," Moby says, "I'll do anything to help decrease animal suffering in the world. Not to be too dramatic, but decreasing the suffering of animals is my life's work. I often work with The Humane Society of the United States, and I see this current project as being one of many that I've done with The HSUS to help make the world a safer and more humane one."
