This album is so cohesive. It sets a tone and puts me into a certain mood that is sustained throughout the entire album. This is surprising because the songs are so different and have so many different emotional elements. Great album!!

"Play" is the techno album that proved a Mac could have a soul. Moby took ancient blues and gospel voices and layered them with dance grooves, creating songs such as "Porcelain" and "Natural Blues," which have a strange, haunting beauty that also became background music in countless TV commercials.

Rightly praised for further dancehall soul-sampled innovations, Play does in fact suffer from a classic case of second side syndrome. In defense of the lauded vegan the first half plays at a consistency of astonishing proportion, making the latter half almost feel like b-sides in the arc of it.

Great CD. I ordered this because my pilates instructor runs this during pilates & it is great to exercise to. Now I am completly hooked & play it all the time in the car. Very eclectic music. Was as advertised.

I'm going to take a different approach to reviewing albums on Amazon. Instead of going in depth on each album and describe each album in detail, i'm going to simply rate each album with how many stars I feel each album is worth based on the below criteria. I hope this helps you make a better decision on purchasing this album with a simple individual rating. If it doesn't help read another review. 5 stars- Classic, Album goes beyond description, Perfect in every way, Could remind you of a certain time or place, Lifetime replay value. 4.5 stars- Near Classic, Incredible album, Maybe only one song that is skippable or just overall doesn't quite deserve classic status. High replay value. 4.0 stars- Awesome album. Very solid album from start to finish. Met every expectation and more. Maybe only one song or two that is skippable or just doesnt' quite deserve a classic or near classic rating. High replay value. 3.5 stars- Above average album. Solid from start to finish but there are a few songs worth skipping. Met expectations, minimal replay value. 3.0 stars- Average album. Nothing bad but nothing great either. After the initial appeal will collect dust. 2.5 stars- Major disappointment. You had high expectations that were ruined as this album is not good at all. There might be only one or two songs worth listening to. No replay value. 2.0 stars- Below average album. This album doesnt bother you to hear as background music but you would rather not listen to it if you didnt have to. No songs really appeal. No replay value. 1.5 stars- Terrible album. Makes one sick to hear it. No songs really appeal but there might be one song that you could stand to hear. Would rather throw in garbage than even waste space in your collection. 1.0 stars- Makes one cringe and the ears bleed! *keep in mind, each album review might not be based on opinion of the band but the album itself in the bands discography

Just bought this CD a couple of weeks ago. I enjoyed listening to it because there's something different about these music compared to contemporary ones. Although obviously they are very modern, you can say Moby's technique of utilizing notes harks back to medieval times. The prolongation of some notes (which are hypnotizing) resembles those of the chants used in religious services. The transitions can be compared to majority of the classical/baroque music. And who could miss the vocals that resemble arias?
