5.0 out of 5 stars One of the best Music DVDs yet!, July 17, 2001

This review is from: Moby - Play the DVD (DVD)

I was literally floored by this DVD. I was expecting mostly a video collection with some extras, but imagine my surprise when the 'extras' such as the megamix of remixes end up making this one of my favorite music DVDs ever.

The videos themselves are nice, with a number of them not before seen in the US (the European ones look like they were made on a smaller budget, but are still good fun to watch). Having the videos for songs like Honey and the original "audition" Bodyrock treatment are a blast. The live songs are amazingly well produced, and it's fun to see Moby with full backup band in tow. He even throws in 'go' and 'new dawn fades' from older releases. The video and sound quality for these segments is really topnotch.

But my favorite part of the DVD, by far, is the megamix of the various 'play' remixes, with new tripped-out visuals to accompany the songs. It's actually quite engrossing. Some of the visuals are your standard G-Force trippy screensaver type deals, but others are wildly imaginative and quite arresting. The remixes are also great in their own right, giving the original songs wildly different interpretations. The 20-minute camcorder bit in Moby's studio is fun, but not exactly arresting.

This DVD instantly jumps into the company of the Criterion Beastie Boys collection and the 'Everything, Everything' DVD from underworld. The megamix part of the disc alone would justify the purchase price.

5.0 out of 5 stars Moby is as good an actor as he is a musician, March 13, 2002

This review is from: Moby - Play the DVD (DVD)

I had been toying with buying this for three months, finally I broke down and bought it. Wow, why did I wait so long. I think that DVD is the way to buy music now. This album was incredible to begin with, but now being able to listen to it in 5.1 audio, wow. The video's are excellent. The remixed songs are fantastic, and the clublike videos that play on top of the remixs are pretty cool...that 20 minute "Give an idiot a camcorder" is hilarious. Moby is too cool for words.
