Another chance to hear Moby sharing his musical milestones with Matt Everitt in an interview first broadcast in 2011.

Moby gives Matt a candid interview crossing his entire career. He explains how he fell in love with music aged 3, why Brian Eno is his God, how the synthesizer and the Sex Pistols shaped his sound, why his multi-million selling album Play was a mistake and how he ended up playing Heroes on the acoustic guitar with David Bowie in his bedroom, and how he found himself playing New Order songs in a London piano bar with New Order, Ian McCulloch, Mick Jones and Bono.
