Reprise

résumé
Moby has teamed up with the Budapest Art Orchestra for a forthcoming compilation album featuring reimagined versions of his songs with new arrangements for orchestra and acoustic instruments.
The album to be titled, Reprise, is due out May 28th on Deutsche Grammophon and will feature 13 songs from the veteran electronic musician’s celebrated catalog that have been reimagined with help from a number of special guests including Gregory Porter, Jim James (My Morning Jacket), Mindy Jones, Víkingur Ólafsson, Kris Kristofferson, Skylar Grey, and more.
As the album’s announcement states, Reprise is not intended to be received as a greatest hits compilation, rather “A chance to reflect on the way in which art can adapt over time to different settings and contexts.”
“Sorry if this seems self-evident, but for me the main purpose of music is to communicate emotion. To share some aspect of the human condition to whomever might be listening.” Moby added in a press statement. “I long for the simplicity and vulnerability you can get with acoustic or classical music.”
