Cat No: IDIOT4

Released in 1993, “Early Underground” is a compilation album of tracks that were previously released only on CD by Moby under pseudonyms such as Barracuda, Brainstorm, UHF and Voodoo Child. This limited edition is a double vinyl collection, and has never been released on vinyl before.

Moby was born Richard Melville Hall in Harlem, NYC in 1965. His father gave him his nickname “Moby” when he was 10 minutes old, as a result of his hereditary relationship to Herman Melville. Moby started playing classical music and studying music theory when he was 9 years old, and then came of age musically in the punk rock scene in and around NYC in the early 80’s. He released his first single, “Go,” in 1991 (listed as one of “Rolling Stone” magazine’s best records of all time), and has been making albums ever since. He has sold over 20,000,000 albums worldwide.

In addition to making his own records, Moby has also produced and remixed artists as varied and disparate as David Bowie, Public Enemy, Ozzy Osbourne, The Beastie Boys, and Daft Punk, to name a few. Moby also works with and supports a variety of non-profit organizations, including The Humane Society, Emily’s List, The ACLU, and The Institute for Music and Neurologic Function.
