Moby : Wait For Me Deluxe Album/Version/Edition

I got pretty excited over the June 30th release of Moby's album, Wait For Me. However, this deluxe release has me ecstatic.

A three disc release.

The first disc is the entire original album, plus two unreleased bonus tracks.
The second disc is an ambient version of the original album, with new interpretations of each of the 16 tracks, re-recorded and re-interpreted by Moby himself. No funky remix album in sight.
And the third disc is a video DVD including live performances, music videos and of course, what we all know and love, more Little Idiot animated shorts for each of the tracks on Wait For Me.

Korg X3

I used to play one of these.

The Korg X3. I remember this thing having wonderful string and piano sounds. A nice cello patch. While it didn't have much to boast about in the way of knobs and tweaking cutting-edge sounds, its sound banks were huge.

January 19

The Cold War Kids are planning on releasing a 4 song EP entitled, "Behave Yourself," on January 19th. New material is currently being worked on for the upcoming album, following the release of the EP. Also, here's a little promo video they put together for the whole thing. LA bands. *Puh.*

Moby and his drum machines

Moby talks about his gear, shows us his drum machine collection and rants about the nerds in electronic music. This is a submersion into Moby's home studio in New York. This is SO COOL.
