Moby is the perfect interviewee. He considers every question carefully then answers in perfect prose. Famous for selling more than 20 million records globally, the multi-talented star has been praised for his writing as well as his musical achievements. Despite this, Moby describes animal rights as his ‘day job’.
Although his first top 10 UK hit was Go in October 1991 (earning him his first Top of the Pops appearance) it was his fifth album Play, released in 1999, that sent his career stratospheric, with every track from the record being licensed for use in adverts and films. This meant everyone heard the music – and most people loved it. He continues to make music, releasing a new album called These Systems Are Failing in October last year. His only live performance of 2016 was at the vegan Circle V Festival – an event he created.
