I literally listened to Moby in 1993.5 - crazy - when I first moved here, Georgia State Radio (album 88) which is 88.5 on the dial, held a electronica show every Saturday night, it eventually matured into a drum-n-bass show titled 'subterrainean' - so for us who've kept up w/ these genres, Moby is basically the ELO or Molly Hatchet's are to the metal fans. But i'd never question his talent and creativity, I rarely ever download trance, it's almost always breakbeat, a variation of drum and bass or instrumental hip-hop.... I've got an odd little flavor, musically.
By the way, I actually saw Moby live at The Roxy here, off of Peachtree. In 99ish, he did old stuff like Next is the 'E'
