Moby Picks: Serge Gainsbourg
Moby is the artist who wasn’t there—but only because he’s always in motion. From hardcore punk to techno to film scores to mainstream rock to the sampladelic commercial phenomenon that was 1999’s Play, Moby’s career can appear as a blur of forever-changing sounds, vocalists and moods. His palette has shifted to twilight blue on the home-recorded Wait For Me (out this week on Little Idiot/Mute), with noir, shapeshifting pocket symphonies such as “Shot In The Back Of The Head” and its David Lynch-created video. Moby will be guest editing magnetmagazine.com this week. Read our Q&A with him.
Moby: Serge Gainsbourg is one of my idols. Why don’t we have smart, bizarre, sardonic intellectuals making records anymore? Our loss.

Film At 11: Dinosaur Jr
Though Dinosaur Jr has seen some rough times since forming a quarter-century ago (remember when J Mascis told Lou Barlow the band was breaking up, and then the band didn’t break up but Barlow was no longer in the band?), the group refuses to quit, offering its second LP since the original lineup reunited two years ago. Farm (Jagjaguwar) is the trio’s ninth studio album, and the video for first single “Over It” features Barlow and drummer Murph on BMX bikes, with Mascis leading the pack on a skateboard. An absolute must-see.

Moby Picks: “Inland Empire”

Moby: I truly believe that Inland Empire is the best movie David Lynch has ever made. I saw it four times at the IFC Theater on Sixth Avenue. It’s a perfect film. Trailer after the jump.
