Richard Melville Hall, better known to most of us as Moby, is an electronic music pioneer. In the 1990s he scored numerous top ten hits on the Billboard Dance Club chart and his album Play (1999) has sold over 12 million copies. Even with all that success, Moby still found himself hitting rock bottom, contemplating suicide and wondering why he wasn't happy despite achieving everything he wanted. Joining us is the director and writer of the Moby Doc, Rob Gordon Bralver. Rob teamed up with Moby to make a documentary about the musician’s life, activism and his struggles along the way in the quest for happiness. Rob tells us how he got the opportunity to make this film and what it was like closely collaborating with Moby. Moby Doc will be released online at the same time as Moby’s new album Reprise on May 28th.   “There’s an element that’s meant to be a cautionary tale for not just aspiring artists, but aspiring anything.
