Moby Releases ‘Resound NYC': Second New Album after Ambient 23

By editorial board on February 10, 2023

Moby dropped on fisrts January 2023 the 16-track album Ambient 23 which was recorded using “weird old drum machines and old synths”

Now Moby announces the release of his second new album, Resound NYC, on 12th May 2023, through Deutsche Grammophon, and shares In This World featuring Marisha Wallace.

In the follow-up to his acclaimed album Reprise (May, 2021), which featured guests including Kris Kristofferson, Mark Lanegan, Jim James, and Skylar Grey, Moby reimagines and orchestrates fifteen of his most iconic tracks written or recorded in New York from the years 1994 to 2010, with guest vocalists including Gregory Porter, Ricky Wilson (Kaiser Chiefs), Margo Timmons, and Amythyst Kiah.

While many of the vocalists are household names, others are less familiar: Moby discovered P.T. Banks singing in a wedding band in Texas, while the elderly father of mesmerizingly soulful Danielle Ponder joins her on the remake of Run On.

The music pioneer’s 20th studio album reflects perhaps the most defining era in Moby’s musical life, from his former home of New York City.

Moby was born in New York City and began his music career playing in punk rock bands, and dj’ing at underground clubs in and around New York.

Moby started off 2023 with the release a new album. Earlier this month, he took to social media to announce that he was finishing up a new album called Ambient 23 with a release date of January 1, and true to his word, the producer has unveiled the new album. Check it out below.

According to his social media post, ambient 23 was recorded using “weird old drum machines and old synths” and is “inspired by…early ambient heros” including Martyn Ware, Brian Eno, Jean-Michel Jarre, and Will Sergeant. In a separate update posted on the day of the release, he added: “Made to help anxiety (my own, and hopefully yours, too). For 2023, may we all be less anxious (and may we all stop looking for validation from a culture we don’t respect…).”
