Moby - Ambient (Vinyl)
Like so much of Moby's earliest work, this isn't so much an album as a compilation via his original label, Instinct. Ambient music influences in techno were all the rage in 1993 in terms of press and coverage, so it's no surprise Instinct wanted some of that action, right down to the says-it-all title.
Motivations aside, Ambient is an enjoyable collection of experiments; if Aphex Twin's monumental Selected Ambient Works releases eclipse it in terms of both quality and sheer inventiveness, Moby's own efforts in the field are often quite pleasing.
Those familiar with such later efforts as "God Moving Over the Face of the Waters" and "The Rain Falls and the Sky Shudders" can find their partial roots here. (AMG)

PRE-ORDERS
Flying Nun only debits your account for a pre-order when it has actually landed in our store. We believe this is fair because supply can often be unreliable - availability and release dates frequently change without notice. Pre-order with Flying Nun and you can cancel any time prior to the product arriving at our store.
OUT OF STOCK ITEMS
Flying Nun only make products available to purchase on our website when they are actually physically held at the store (except pre-orders). Vinyl availability from all local and international suppliers changes on a daily/hourly basis. Therefore, it is not possible to guarantee an online order for many items not currently held in stock.
SHIPPING
Flying Nun offers free shipping in Aotearoa New Zealand on orders over $80. We have record stores in both Auckland and Wellington and will ship your record from whichever store is nearest. We aim to pack send your order next business day. Pick ups are also available from both stores.
