* Opinions on the seventh album ''Hotel,'' Moby's flirtation with mainstream rock and pop, are [[LoveItOrHateIt divided]], but if you get the double-disc version, disc two, titled ''Hotel: Ambient'' is devoted to a smooth collection of his dabblings in ambient techno.

* His version of the Film/JamesBond theme works ''way'' better than it has any right to.

* To this day, Moby occasionally performs in a shirt that says "Nobody Listens To Techno," after Music/{{Eminem}}'s diss on "Without Me". Speaking of which, the way Moby consistently kept a good sense of humor and dignity during their "beef" was kind of awesome in itself.
