Moby’s new album ‘Wait For Me’ is a return to the sound of multi-platinum selling albums ‘Play’ and ‘18’. The album was recorded in Moby’s bedroom studio on vintage equipment, over the last 12 months, a process that gave him more freedom to experiment without the restraints of expensive studio time. Moby describes the albums sound thus: “I wanted to make something that a 26 year-old woman, in her apartment, depressed can relate to.”
It’s also album designed to be listened to in one sitting.
“I wanted to make a record that was beautiful and warm and open and inviting, and also a little more idiosyncratic and personal,” Moby says. “The way it’s recorded and mixed, it’s not supposed to be a bombast. A lot of my issues with modern records is they, from start to finish, are just in your face, they’re loud and brash and demanding. Sometimes that can be great, but when every instrument is mixed as loud as it can go and when vocals are constantly in your face and everything’s bright and there’s no subtlety.”
