MOBY Celebrates The 25th Birthday Of His Millionseller LP ‘PLAY’ And Announces A New One Too
New striking strokes
19 March 2024
58-year-old British synth-pop star MOBY celebrates the 25th anniversary of his millionseller LP PLAY on 17 May. For the occasion he’ll play a handful of dates in
Europe this September.
Moby: “It’s been over 10 years since I’ve toured, but someone reminded me that 2024 is the 25th anniversary of the release of ‘Play’, so it seemed like it might not be the worst idea to do
a short European tour to commemorate and celebrate. The show will feature well known songs from ‘Play’, but also a bunch of audience favorites, like ‘Extreme Ways,’ ‘We Are All Made Of Stars,’ ‘When It’s Cold I’d Like to Die,’ and even some old rave bangers like ‘Feeling So Real’ and ‘Go.’”
But he’s looking forward too with the news that he has canned
a new longplayer. It’s baptized ALWAYS CENTRED AT NIGHT and
sees the day of light on June 14.
It features guests on all 13 songs.
“For the last 30 years, I’ve worked with amazing singers – everyone from David Bowie
to Freddie Mercury, Gregory Porter to Jill Scott. ‘Always Centered At Night’ continues my
love of collaborating, but has a focus of working with amazing singers who might not be
as well known as David Bowie and Gregory Porter.”
The first single, called DARK DAYS , is a soulfully styled synth-pop
pearl featuring the marvellous voice of Lady Blackbird
