Moby - Slipping Away
View this Thread in Original format
BeeJay
This song is released for quite a long time, but there was almost no attention for it here (a MD thread with 2 replies). I think this song deserves more. The song has a nice addictive melody. No great lyrics, but at least a good male vocal; I rarely see that in EDM.

Mhc Extended Remix > Axwell mixes.
Focus People That Slip Remix By Mathew Jonson is not my taste
Zloot Remix is OK.

I searched for other Moby threads, but there are almost none, why? He is such a great producer.

it is a good song. axwell remix sounds interesting.

i rather like matthew jonson, too. mmm sounds like we have very different tastes :)

Dunno, maybe he's not really considered to be a trancer or something. I dig the Axwell remix quite a bit, and still play it regularly on Saturdays (not played out yet).

moby sucks... if he's an artist he's one who doesn't make art, he makes a product for mass appeal and i find it very uninspired lacking creativity or anything real behind it. it's average electronic pop at best.

Funny, that also fits the template for what PVD produces!

Moby started out (circa 90/91) with much more flare for originality than what his productions represent today. I guess you could say he's spent.

i think maybe it's about time i can't post in these forums and show my support for pvd and sasha in signatures etc cause that's all any ing person wants to address when they respond. really getting old!

lol moby may have started out a little differently... but that guy, he really didn't do much to earn my respect. i listened to some of his music only when i knew nothing about electronic music.

say what you want about pvd because you will anyway, just like the rest of em. surely he's done a lot since 1988 to earn my respect, and he did it before anybody paid him the big bucks or worshipped his stupid ing superstardom and he's stuck to what he loves and what he's doing and is still doing it. all of paul's major colleagues who were really good and rocked his and other similar "trance" music have moved on and switched to all the latest trends.... including people like sasha and digweed who i still have tremendous respect for. paul's still paul doing what paul always has done and loves since the time when he was a nobody. regardless of what anybody says, he did not sell out or change a damn thing for fame or popularity, even though most of trance is . as far as his productions are concerned, that is a personal thing.... i don't think he was aiming at being commercial pop like moby, who has said something as idiotic in the past about Radiohead as something along the lines of their only good song being "creep." essentially that tells you how an idiot like him thinks...... radiohead is a ing amazing band that has done a lot more with just about every other song they made afterwards than they did with creep, so him.

i'll wait for the man to be inspired and blow the world away again when he produces the quality we expect. for now, he still has it in a way that no other does as a dj that kills the dancefloor...that's what matters.

thing is he's right. both PvD and Moby were amazing back in the day. today theyre nothing special. so dont get so defensive when you were the one who attacked an artist in the first place.

for "Porcelin" alone Moby will always be a legend in my eyes. today hes alright. catchy pop songs. same goes for PvD. everything up until Out There And Back was amazing. everything after is solid or lacking. nothing really special since.

Anything Moby does and is remixed usually sounds great. For this song I take Ax's mix

You have no clue


PvD can play As The Rush Comes for 3 hours straight and groupies like you will yell out Brilliant ! Genius !

maximum pwnage going on in in here.:stongue:

I will even admit to liking PVD pre-99 but part of the problem is he never really changed...he simply watered down his sound to appeal more to the masses.

Respect for Sasha and Digweed...so typical.:rolleyes: They've managed to keep things somewhat fresh with the way they've evolved...but I have more respect for the likes of Jody and Nick whose productions PVD constantly canes in his DJ sets worldwide...very refreshing to hear after 5 carbon copies of "Time of our Lives," "Crush" and "The Other Side" or whatnot. ;)

I was seriously disappointed with Mathew Jonsons remix effort here - couldf have been great but came out very weak imo
