#Moby6Music - Moby Tweet-In

Moby picks the playlist in collaboration with the 6 Music listeners and his online fans.

Moby is our latest 'Tweet In' guest, as he curates 6 Music listeners' playlist suggestions and interacts live with the audience via Twitter during the show.

The musician and DJ is set to release his eleventh studio album 'Innocents', which features guest appearances from the likes of The Flaming Lips' Wayne Coyne and Queens of the Stone Age's Mark Lanagan.
It's 11 years since Moby released his self-titled debut album, and is credited with bringing dance music to a mainstream audience - thanks to his fusion of disco beats with guitar sounds.

He has also co-written, produced, and remixed music for acts as diverse as David Bowie, Daft Punk, Michael Jackson, Pet Shop Boys, Britney Spears, New Order, Depeche Mode, The B-52s and Public Enemy, as well as famously reworking the theme to David Lynch's cult TV show Twin Peaks' to a house beat for his Top 10 hit 'Go'.
In this Now Playing special, Moby will be live on Twitter casting his eye over listeners' suggestions as they help him put together the ultimate Moby-inspired playlist.

So get ready with your choices that you reckon could pass the Moby's eclectic musical tastes test - whether tracks by his collaborators, original tracks he's sampled, his influences or simply your favourite tracks by the New Yorker himself.
