what do you think of moby and fatboy slim? what kind of music ARE they? personally, i think they're gaylord fockers.

their styles are so different i dont think u can compare the two..

moby has produced way more tracks than norman cook,, his production is 100% better as well..

and maybe next time you can put a better effort in...

to say " i think they are gaylord fokers " is pretty lame.. grow up

ok ok sorry, i just like using that word...

i personally hate moby... he doesnt stick to one genre of music.. and that s the main description of a good artist.. that is how you can define their work... but with moby.. people never know what kinda music he plays..he used to be good until he started to play that pop crap.

i wasnt really into fatboy slim until i heard oakie play star 69..about a month ago... that song is awesome..
anyways i read articles about both of them.. and their kinda of music is described as FOLCLORE/HOUSE.. now whatever that means...

I used to like Moby awhile ago.... his latest album "Play" i really can't stand... i guess i'm just really tired of everyone raving about it... and i dont like the fact that everyone calls it "techno"..... i dont even consider it electronica at all (even though they use computers/keyboards to make some of the music).... i think its what DreamGrl said... "folk house" or whatever.. sounds too wholesome for me

Fatboy slim on the other hand i can't say anything bad about... and not just b/c of star 69, but all of his tracks... although they are considered "cheesy" by some, and not really dance-type music, i just like them.... maybe its the hook, or the catchy way they're put together... But the album "you've come a long way..." is a classic IMO...

the main description of a good artist is that the artists has to stick to one genre on music!?!
Ooookaayy. So by definition Tittney Spears is BETTER than Moby !?
Pffft.
Moby has had a classical education when it comes to music...
I know he plays A LOT of various instruments, something that is reflected in his productions. He masters looping, seuqencing, acoustic instruments and a lot more!
I don't like Moby personally anymore... never quite recovered after that darn rock album he gave out a couple of years ago... But anyway, I have to say that Moby is probably one of THE MOST talented artists we have had yet in the known history of music.

So there!

ok i'm sorry, i take back the gaylord thing back, but i have to agree with ABT. i'm just tired of people saying they listen to trance because they like moby and fatboy slim.

not sticking to one genre.. is that really a good reason to belittle a musician? Oakey doesnt stick to one genre of music nor does BT, but, i still consider them musical genius and even better, pioneers of electronica...

artists like Moby and etc., are the one that expands the new horizon for music and also develop diverse audience if not mass audience, imho.

dont get me wrong... im not fond of any of the aforementioned artists but i do greatly applaud and respect their skills and wut they have given into the electronica scene, regeardless of genre...

oh another note, u mentioned that defining artists work is possible only when they stick to one genre... i do agree w/ that to some extent. i think the prob w/ Moby is that he doesn use different aliases for his mulitple projects, be it trance, tehcno or wutever.. most artists use different alias so that they can cross the boundaries of different genre w/o getting compared w/ their previous works... eg: Michael Woods a.k.a. Warrior. totally different style of music but same person

hmmmmm...somehwere i think i drifted off....ah well!
neway...just my $0.02

moby i like... he is very talented.. and there were quality remixes of Natural Blues...
Olmecheads Mix, and also Katcha Mix... truly spectacular... when Seb Fontaine played that track @ Golden's 8th Bday, i was truly truly truly emotional..
as for fatboy slim, i know he's a great party enducer, but his music, is not to my liking.. and i think he's a bit of a knob in person really =p
