Moby On
Possible Collaboration With Jewel
Moby wraps up
his stint on the MTV Campus Invasion Tour with Bush next week, and he has
already begun demo-ing material for the follow-up to his gold-selling commercial
breakthrough, "Play."
The dance and
electronica guru previously told MTV News that he was hoping that the new record
would have a romantic atmosphere, and Moby is even contemplating a collaboration
of some sort with Jewel.
Moby and Jewel
performed together back in February at a MusicCares benefit in Los Angeles
honoring Elton John, and Moby recently chatted with MTV about how he first met
Jewel while doing a TV appearance in the U.K.
"I met
Jewel about three or four years ago," Moby said. "We were both
doing 'Top Of The Pops' in England at the same time, and we became friends,
which might seem strange 'cause our musical approach is quite different.
"This
might sound strange, but she's one of the most talented musicians I've ever met.
We had this one night, she was in a studio in New York, and I went and visited
her. We just sat around for hours and hours, playing piano, singing and playing
guitar. She's really unbelievably talented."
