Moby Reprised | Broken Record (Hosted by Rick Rubin)
Ойын-сауық
Moby may be one of the most highly recognizable dance-music artists of all time, but he’s also a talented multi-hyphenate whose unconventional 30-year career includes massive success as a producer and DJ, and notoriety as an animal rights activist.
Moby’s latest project, “Reprise,” is a greatest hits album that revisits the highlights of his extensive catalogue. Recorded with the Budapest Art Orchestra and various vocalists like Jim James, Moby’s most well known electronic songs are reimagined on “Reprise” into sparse, soul-stirring compositions.
On today’s episode we’ll hear Rick Rubin and Moby reminisce about their early punk rock days in New York City, and the first time Moby ever heard house music while dancing in a club basement next to Prince. Moby also talks about what it was like to be buddies with David Bowie, getting sober, and why he decided to sell the big fancy castle he lived in all by himself.

Spectacular, loved it. Moby is such a well spoken and introspective guy, always enjoy his way of thinking about stuff and his positive approach to creativity.
An excellent and very engaging interview indeed! Thank you. Tons of illuminations of behind the scenes. I love that Moby is by no means a name dropper but so very genuine and real with his life stories.

he's so different than listening to any other 'celebrity' interview. if a story is going to paint him in a bad light, or if it's an embarrassing story in general, he won't hold back. hearing moby interviews is like hearing a friend sitting across from you answering questions.
Wonderful, interview from a very interesting artist,, and I too, Moby, love Yes’s ‘Close totheEdge’-music iz my religion, and always will be…..
last eight years i've been doing a thing where I'd only go to concerts within walking distance so my city glendale california doesn't do much rock music like my music of choice so i ended up going to music i wouldn't normally attend like classical and jazz at glendale college and classical at the alex theater and really it's been pretty good opened me up a little to learn about genres of music i wouldn't normally attend
What a beautiful Interview this is. Thank you so much for asking the spiritual question Rick. It is a question that burnt in my brain for a while, since i feel "almost home" is clearly channeled straight from source. If you have just a little sense of what is going on on this Planet you have to shed a tear when you hear this. Especially the acoustic versions. It is so interesting that we can hear a piece of music, including lyrics and it just feels like someone understands you so well that he carefully takes the knowing out of your heart, lets it translate into exact words and transmits it so gently from your tongue that you just feel like you finally have been seen for the first time in your life, and when you hear them talk about how they did it, they don`t even know what happened themselves. This is the pure magic of Music. Thank both of you lovespreaders for being here. You´ve enriched my heart once again. 💛
I had a moment , in 1978 where I was a block away from the Ed Sullivan THeatre , on Broadwayin mid -town Manhattan-, and directly across the street, strides my ultimate hero-John Lennon, ,,I wanted to run across Broadway, and tell him how much his music with BEATLES, meant to me 1st and my life[ like a billion other people out there…]….then , my better angels kicked in , and I realized -this beautiful` human-has done enough for me and world, ‘leave him alone, Jerry’,, and soo I did - but I realized the awesome -ness of this moment, andkeptmyeyes on him-till he disappeared from sight-but what an awesome memory -and I love HIM -WITH FERVOR AS A FAN TOO THIS DAY, AND BEYOND……and the’FABS’
Excellent interview. We need a 4 hour version. Disco Electro Punk Rock 4ever
I swear I've been waiting for this interview for a long time.
I really enjoyed the part of your discussion about the post - disco, pre - House sound. This was also my generation of clubbing and I really loved the variety of sounds and the fusion of disco, boogie, new wave, funk, punk, electronic etc. Moby said that this music "didn't know what it wanted to be" and that's what made it great, the lack of boundaries.

Thanks for sharing!
A stellar podcast from one of THE BEST PODCAST PRODUCERS on EARTH. Thnx @BrokenRecordPodcast! Best regards from SW France.
Moby rules.
What a fantastic conversation
Wow! The stories about David Bowie etc! Thank you for this!
Rick should have a voice actor career or do audio books. #GoldenVoice
Moby's music is so recognisable
Thank you Moby. I've had many enjoyable times listening to your music. Everything from the PlayStation 2 game "Frequency" to your "Area Festivals 1 & 2" in Philly / Jersey. Sadly I had to toss my t shirt from area 2. It held up a good 10 years though
55:05 "if there is a universe with a will it probably makes sense to seek its will rather than try and impose my will on it"
Thank you for the intro to Strafe! I have heard the references but never heard the original…
This was a great listen!
Roxy Music was the template The Cars built off of with touches of Bowie and Bolan, of course. The interesting thing is how Ric also started off as a folk guy just as David and Marc did.
What a great trip this was.
So I had to check out ACxDC hahaha loved them Moby, a lot.
sometimes the commerce of music could be beautiful, like when someone produces a beautiful promotional photo, or comes up with a beautiful name for their record company
Moby sounds like a voice generator voice no lies!!!
Cant wait to work with you two✨
Raze's Break For Love was big in London - a summer of love anthem. Strafe's Set It Off did nothing in London but Harlequins Four's version kicked off House music for us (though we didn't have the term until about a year or so later) I remember how different it sounded to everything else we had been listening to by its pace and loud upfront high hats so prominent.
I love these air molecules

Hey guys, great interview! However, have you heard of a video camera? Those are pretty cheap nowadays. Even the phone has one!
Very insightful interview. I can’t imagine having dinner with Lou Reed and David Bowie.

Riley Reid transformed RAP, thats bigger!
You could play strafe at college party in arkansas in 2001 and people still danced their butts off.
Moby and Pharrell referred to Set It Off in their interviews with Rick.

wow. this was incredible. i worked in music retail sales in NYC when PLAY came out, i cant lie, so i grew to despise Moby. i was wrong.
It’s called electro gentlemen!

thinking why was the music scene more diverse in the big city? don't know except more people jammed together. but the suburbs can have a diversity of kinds of people too
Wasn't Rick Rubin referring to "I.O.U." by Freeez?

Yes I think Rick was referring to Freeze but EBN OZN also had a track called AEIOU.

DUH. Were the Modern Lovers an influence on The Cars? Ask David Robinson.
Moby continually ignores rick
They're both trying to out-cool each other. I was at the Poop Club when Pisswinkle played their first US gig. I was the only one there so they asked me which songs I wanted to hear.

37:00 he’s feeling bad for talking about his connection with the universe ? Moby, you’re a talented dude, but worrying about triggered grown ass adults is disturbing
Lol
I've read his first book it was shaming ,foul, disgusting and foul . Unfortunately waste of money He choose to live in a dirty old building as a young man .
37:00 i disagree, i think most people use "god" it in that sense, but this first sense god deluded by people in power for their own use.
