Moby is the best we can do?
« on: January 07, 2009, 08:16:27 pm »
Seriously? So Moby is doing a pre inauguration thing at the club... I happened to catch part of one of those "world class"  DJ sets last year and if you like cheeseball late 90s "rave" tracks then he's delivering the goods.  ::)  Highest paid Wedding DJ ever!

Ouch.


That bad?


I've heard tons of mixed reviews of his sets and have no idea what to think but you tend to know your dj's more than most so I'll take your word for it.


Edit:But the more I think about it, the more not-so-bad hanging out in the club until 6 AM dancing like a jackass to shitty 90's rave music sounds.

Granted I haven't seen Moby in a while, but at the time, I remember thinking he wasn't really relevant anymore.  On a side note.. anyone remember that video of Moby getting punched in Boston (?) outside a club by some guy in FSU.. i hadn't thought of that in a while until this post.

..now if they'd only add Deadmau5 to that show.. then you'd have a show worth seeing.

  While dancing to shitty 90s rave music til 6am sounds neat, Kosmo is right, Moby doesnt need to do this.

  In fact, DC area has many local DJs capable of playing the rave hits and mixing some records together.

   actually....wait a minute....whats wrong with shitty 90s rave music?

while the music snobs on this board would naturally prefer derrick may or some other lesser-known DJ figurehead, the choice of moby is perfectly understandable.  indeed, any number of local DJs can spin 90's rave hits - but would the masses trek out to the club to dance to them?  unlikely.  moby will sell out the club, unknown bedroom dj will not.  this show wasn't meant to appease the chin-scratching set.

Scott Henry would probably sell out the club, but i dare say he probably makes close to Moby money.

  On a personal note, and i have probably stated this before in a different Moby-bashing thread; I have met Moby on several occasions and he is a very interesting person. He's super smart and has a good sense of humour about the whole DJ thing.  He certainly makes Norman Cook (who I've also spent time with) seem like a talentless fuck. 

and i wont even start on Brian Transeau....

why all this moby hate?

he did that really weak MOB cover, and in his own mind sang for Flipper for a spell in the 80's.  He's legit!
