Spacey, Groovey and Clean December 30, 2007 Bruno Morris (Long Beach, CA) I really like this as an ALBUM,and also many of the individual tracks are danceable. Particularly good is Track 12 - "Synthesizers": very late nite-ish, mellow & spacey, groovy, clean!
Not a get up and dance kind of thing really, but good trance/house music for background computer surfing after lighting up a fat one!

0:06 into Track #1... Am I loosing my mind, or is this a moby styled loop?
2:15 into Track #1... At this point this point I think we all know its Moby for sure.
Track #4... Ok Im ready to start Dancing now.... Energy building, and... 3:25, nice break... very nice! [in case the person reading this is Moby] ;) YES!!! Starts up again!... 6:43
Track #5 Definitely different... I think I hear some old skool Moby here
Track #7... At first this sounds a bit Icey-ish but more trancy. A fresh sound from Moby.
Track #8 1:58... Ok where is my copy of Early Underground?
"Its Party Time!..."
Like the man said- it's just good, straightforward dance September 27, 2004 Beau (St. Louis, MO USA) 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
Okay, i like experimental stuff, creativity keeps electronica as a whole alive. But now and again, it's nice to have a good artist who simply comes down to earth and gives us some good music. This is GOOD DANCE. (Except the last track, which is good except it NEVER ENDS...). As such, this is a good, all-around CD for whenever. It's not mood specific, triumphant, melancholy, whatever- it just is. Moby has tremendous capacity for experimentation, but when you get off the hinterlands and come back to the main area- you see that the experimentation is based on, well, good, straightforward music.
A gem August 7, 2004 CJ Foster (ky) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Since Moby's carreer began, his musical style has matured and evolved. Especially with the releases of Play and 18. His music has evolved into almost poppish electronica. As Voodoo Child, he gets back to his original roots from the early 90's. This album sounds a lot like "MOBY: RARE B-SIDES" the superb 2-disc set released by Moby a few years ago. The music in this album is earlier Moby mixed with newer Moby. You can tell it's the "newer" Moby 'cause of the drumwork. Every musician has a favorite chord and style of music they like to use in their own productions. Moby is no different. Since the release of Play, I have noticed simularities in all the tracks he's done since then. That's not a bad thing. It's not repetive. And it takes true skill for that. Most artists sound the same each and every track. I do the same. I'm a electronica musician. And you can tell it's me every track because I usually use the same softwares and stuff for my drums and synths. And I have a set chord reference for most of my tracks. It's my brain at work.(...)
So is this a good album? Yes. It's one of the finest. And I hope Moby releases more albums under the name Voodoo Child.
average dance music April 5, 2004 Lukas Pokorny (CZ) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
good stuff but nothing extraordinary (except tracks 4 and 12) if i should try to express what i'm expecting from real dance music i would put down only one group which stands for the best dance maker. in my opinion, guys from "chemical brothers" with their skils really got it (nothing new, of course). and the difference between moby and ChB??? how simple, if you take the ChB's best dance song of all times - for me : "sunshine underground" (Surrender) - from the beginning to the end you can hear the developement, which i would compare to the developement in the built-up of drama works - thesis, synthesis...climax, apocalypse. This is what makes me feel the excitement, the tension which is constantly run up until to the climax of the song...and that's what the majority (moby inclusive) of so called dance-songs lacks. i'm sorry Moby, as you said you did only "simple, straightforward dance music".
