One of the top Electronic figures of the 90’s, Moby was also among the most controversial. He was not a straight laced star in a partying genre and not necessarily the one that others wanted to see become the face of Electronica. Still, his ability to ease into pure Techno, Ambient and virtually any Electronic based musical format has to be applauded and with a long string of hits he is certainly among the most successful. Chances are that none of this will be enough to warrant serious Hall consideration.
