My Take
Moby occupies a fascinating place in music history, helping drag dance music from the underground into the mainstream on both sides of the Atlantic in the early 1990s. With twenty million records sold, the commercial impact is undeniable. But what earns my respect is the conviction behind the music: a lifelong commitment to veganism and animal rights that he has never softened for the sake of his image. There is a curious stillness and tenderness inside even his most danceable tracks, a contemplative quality that sets him apart. Artist, producer, entrepreneur, activist, he keeps his many roles tethered to a single moral core.
