Moby Play

Moby's landmark fifth studio album Play is one of the most influential electronic music releases of all time, a groundbreaking record that helped bring electronic music into the mainstream and introduced a generation of listeners to Moby's unique blend of electronica, ambient, downtempo, blues, gospel and soul.

Originally released in 1999, Play became a global phenomenon, driven by its innovative use of samples from early American folk, blues and gospel recordings sourced from musicologist Alan Lomax's field recordings. The result was a deeply atmospheric and emotionally resonant album that felt both timeless and modern.

Featuring iconic tracks including "Porcelain", "Natural Blues", "Why Does My Heart Feel So Bad?", "South Side", "Bodyrock" and "Run On", the album achieved extraordinary commercial success and became one of the first albums in history to have every track licensed for use in films, television, advertising or other media.

Widely regarded as a defining release of the late 1990s and early 2000s, Play transformed Moby into an international star while influencing countless artists across electronic, pop and alternative music. More than two decades later, its combination of haunting melodies, soulful samples and immersive production remains as powerful and relevant as ever.

Presented as a limited reissue pressed on heavyweight 180gm vinyl across 2LPs, Play is an essential addition to any electronic music collection and a timeless masterpiece from one of the genre's most innovative artists.
