Summary: Electronica Genius
Review: Moby has long been associated with electronica and dance music, and I've often wondered why. Although his classic CD "Moby" demonstraighs beautiful techno music making ability, his other CD's could very well be classified as "rock" in the category as say, Radiohead, Beck, or many other rock musicans who own a synth. I would always be surprised when people associated Moby with Shasa and Digweed, or Paul Van Dyk. Then i got Play the DVD.Moby's CD play I've always liked and the DVD is a masterpeice. Included is a 90 minute remix of Play known as a "megamix". This explains why Moby can rightfully be classified with other techno greats. Having been a fan of dance music for many years, and having attended many raves, I can truly say without question, Moby's megamix is one of the best DJ mixes I've ever heard. Personal favorite tracks include his remix of Porcelain and Honey. Overall, the megamix feature is worth the cost of the whole DVD and truly great trance.

Summary: Where is "South Side"?
Review: Moby's most popular song is strangely missing from this collection. Anyone think that's odd? Although I am a fan of all of Moby's songs, I will sorely miss the studio video satirizing rock 'n' roll stereotypes and seeing Moby jam on his guitar to the most conventional "band song" on the album. Hmmm... Bad marketing move, huh?

Summary: Moby's Mega Mix Mega Hit
Review: Moby's videos are cool. But what I thought was the greatest was Moby's Mega Mix. True it begins to look like the screen saver Dazzle at first but I kept it going. The Mega Mix is 80 minutes of continuous music with constantly changing visuals. I love the visuals! They range from high resolution Dazzle images to short clips of people dancing to funky "dancing" symbols plus many many more. If you like artistic uses of graphic design you'll love the Mega Mix!

Summary: Awesome!!
Review: Moby, aka Richard Melville III~has a sense of humor that has been a well-kept secret apparently. It shines through tremendously in this completely awesome DVD. Included in this package are the music vids from the "PLAY" CD, plus bonus vids that were never released stateside. What I was first wowed by, though, was "Moby's Megamix"...a montage of remixed versions of "PLAY" songs, all gussied up with the most incredible visuals I've ever seen--even when I worked with Alex Paterson of The Orb! A non-stop barrage of sound and vision, this portion of the DVD rawks! Then, I flipped over to the "Give An Idiot A Camcorder" scenes. OHMYGAWD! I was laughing so hard from the time it began until I had to shut it off to catch my breath. Just a candid, script-free sequence in which Moby walks around with a camcorder....it's funny! I haven't even made it to the rest of the DVD because of this portion! Buy this now!

Summary: It could've had more if you compare to The Chem. Bros. DVD
Review: Overall, I really thought the videos could've been a little more creative and unique. Some of the videos were just kind of weird in my opinion, and the good ones I never really called good, I just thought they were ok. Some of the TV spots were good, like the one where Moby performs "Go" LIVE, that was impressive and was also the first time I have heard the song "Go" in general. The MEGAMIX I thought was poor, a lot of the mixes and remixes were very dull and could've been a lot better considering there were some remakes of some of Moby's songs that were just slaughtered.

Summary: Plenty of Moby for everyone
Review: Prepare to be saturated in the audio and visual world of Moby. Whether or not that is a good thing is up to you. The dvd has a good live set of 5 or 6 songs, a 1 1/2 hour "mexamix" (really the gem of the dvd), some home video shot by and starring Moby, and other neat things. I like Moby, but not enough to enjoy every bit of the dvd. Perhaps that is the beauty of it: there is plenty here for everyone to enjoy a little bit of.

Summary: Who cares about Southside?!?
Review: Quit complaining about Southside not being on here! The song was awesome BEFORE he decided to use somebody who was already mainstream just to get played on MTV. I like Gwen and all, but I just thought that was just a ... attempt to get more people listening to Moby. I'm glad they left it out, it doesn't feel like Moby even really made it, and that's what this DVD is all about, just Moby. I love the videos on there, some of which were released in US, and the others I am guessing either were made for the DVD or had been released in Europe. The "Give An Idiot A Camcorder" was so funny, I love the fish puppet, nice touch Moby :) The only part I didn't care for was the rave mix, just because I'm not too big into rave music like that. But I still gave this DVD 5 stars, because it's not like I HAVE to watch that part, and it still delievers everything else I could ask for.
