Moby – Come On Baby

I bought this for the The Crystal Method remix. This rubber is all black (not green like on the picture) and very disgusting :-)

Moby was on a strange punk rock / death metal trip when he released this. Having long stopped being a fan, I find most of the tracks on this release unlistenable now. CD 1 swings between noisy rock without melodies and boring acoustic renditions of club classics ("Go", "Hymn"). CD 2 features remixes of "Come On Baby". Eskimos & Egypt provide industrial mixes which already sounded dated even when this was released. Only the Crystal Method mix stands the test of time to me, even though I think they just took one of their own unreleased standard tracks and added a handful of vocal samples on top to sell it as a remix. There is really no good reason for buying this unless you are a hardcore fand who gets off on limited editions and unusual packaging.

The Crystal Method mix alone is worth finding this record in a back bin somewhere. Smooth transition, high mixability, and a great album all around. Highly recommended!
