Moby

Wait For Me

BY Sarah FergusonPublished Aug 17, 2009

Featuring smooth, gliding rhythms and soulful, classical undertones, exploration into the dark aspects of society and heartfelt vocals about war, Wait For Me was driven intentionally and publicly by artistic motivation, not commercial gain. The record is deeply musical, sincere and righteous. And the songs come from a seasoned electronic artist who has created a sound imitated by no one else. Amanda Zirin Brown's unhesitatingly lucid vocals are a large part of many of the tracks (including the title track), delivering seriously beautiful character. "Mistake" is an emotionally-rich track and Moby's vocals sound like a bit of a cross between Ian Curtis and David Byrne. Standout track for peacemakers "Study War" is epic and gracious, demonstrating musical finesse evident primarily in artists who live to make music. Doing his best to help the world become a better place, Moby will take you there on Wait For Me.
