Such an underrated masterpiece. One of the most psychedelic albums of the nineties. You could just get lost in it's techno dream pop mastery.

Every song seems to be the same formula.

But then again, what's wrong with that? As long as it's a new formula (which it certainy is, in Moby's case), there's nothing wrong with using it throughout the whole album. So many classics, from Paranoid to Endtroducing to the College Dropout to Is This It, used the same frame for all their songs.
If anything, you SHOULD make your albums like that, since that's what makes an album flow, and not be simply a collection of tracks.

Decent album, but ruined by the scads of adverts it was sold to. I heard Moby's tracks schilling booze, cars, and electronics. I guess he has to pay the bills, but it attaches something else to the imagery.

I like this album It's very good electronic music. and the compositions aren't 'the same formula' every time.
South Side is my favourite track, despite how cheesy it might be at times. Porcelain is the wide=spread favourite _________________ Submit Your List for BEA's 2023 Film Poll!

Like this album too. Reminds me of a long road trip through France I had a few years ago with this playing in the background. Lots of good tunes on this one, but I think he sold out a bit. Porcelain is my favourite, but I much prefer his work in the early 90s.
