Moby collaborates with Freemasons
Moby will release his new single Disco Lies through Mute on 15th September 2008. Taken from Moby's latest album, Last Night, the new single features the vocals of Shayna Steele - "she sounds like she should have been making disco records in 1978" - Moby.
The single package comes with mixes by Freemasons, Spencer & Hill, Eddie Thoneick, Diskokaine, Jacques Renault and The Dusty Kid.
Moby discusses his inspiration for Disco Lies:
"I remember going to San Francisco in the early 90s and hearing some DJs like Marc Farina, the dance scene here in NYC was very aggressive. It was either older, softer House music or very aggressive Rave music and you went to San Francisco and it was much more disco inspired and a bit softer and it reminded me of being out in night clubs in Manhattan in the early to mid 80s, where you had this genuine underground dance scene that no-one outside of Lower Manhattan had any interest in, and so the song Disco Lies, I wanted it slightly to be reminiscent of Paradise Garage with Larry Levan or Tony Humphreys, who used to play at this club called Zanzibar out in Newark, so with these cold electronic elements, but with a very Impassioned diva vocal on top."
Summer 2008 sees Moby return to the stage, for a series of very special live shows - Moby Live: Remixed.
The album 'Last Night' sees Moby return to the dance floor with a vengeance, and his Live: Remixed set celebrates this shift back towards the dance world, with an unrelenting, full-on, hands-in-the-air, live experience.
The energetic set showcases new material from 'Last Night', but also takes you on a journey through Moby's eclectic musical history - taking a nostalgic look back at Moby's deep roots in the rave scene, whilst making reference to albums Play, 18, and Hotel, and embracing the future with cutting edge remix material.
