Free Music Notes for Hotel
Free Music Review: oh dear
Hit: 1 Stars
Sorry to say, but this is one (well 2) expensive coasters.
I listened to it all the way through & was more than unthrilled.
The next time, I got as far as the diabolical cover version of New Order's Temptation & threw the discs in the bin.
Moby needs to go back to his punk roots & keep this rubbish to himself.
I had to give it a star or my review can't be submitted, but I can award a star for the cd case which is handy to replace any broken ones I might have.
Hotel Poster
Once a roving maverick who skipped from euphoric rave to speed-metal to ambient soundscaping as if just to prove he could, recent years have seen Richard Melville Hall relax into a comfortable--and yes, lucrative--niche. On the surface, Hotel follows a similarly laid-back trajectory to his last two albums, Play and 18; melancholic torch-songs indebted to electro-pop, gospel, and David Bowie's "Heroes." That vibe is typified on Hotel by the rousing, keyboard-drenched likes of "Beautiful" and the twinkling, optimistic "Spiders," but that's not to say Moby is stagnating, exactly. For one, he's bravely jettisoned the vocal samples that powered the likes of "Why Does My Heart Feel So Bad?" and relies instead on his own understated, faintly awestruck vocals--and, indeed, those of guest vocalist Laura Dawn, whose sparse, synth-and-drum-machine cover of New Order's "Temptation" is a low-key highlight. But there's also a return to his raving roots on the pulsing, diva-led "Very," and a touch of politics on "Lift Me Up"--a song that hides its contempt for the Bush Administration amid a dark carnival of sweeping strings and disco-noir rhythms. --Louis PattisonThe new album, "Hotel", continues in Moby's tradition of making beautifully eclectic records. It runs the gamut from quintessential ("Hotel intro", "Homeward Angel") to big-chorus stadium anthems ("Spiders", "Lift Me Up") to straight-forward electro-disco ("Very") to ballads ("Forever") to new-wave ("Where You End"), and everything in between.
