Stereo is a frentic blast of drum 'n' bass, coming in at under two and a half minutes, with minimal lyrics and a video to match, Goddard. conspicuous by his absence and seemingly replaced by a ripped dancer in shades and sprayed on vest.
All in all, it sounds like a spruced out outtake from 1995, when Moby first dabbled with drum 'n' bass. I'm guessing that there will be a slew of remixes incoming that may get the pulse racing a little more, but this one left me rather cold.
However, it did inspire me to take a leap back, five years at a time, through Moby's back catalogue, landing with his infamous single, Go. First released in 1990, it was a global smash the following year when Moby was prompted to add the Twin Peaks theme tune sample.
Musically, it's been up and down in those three and a half decades, likewise the videos. But when it's good, it's very, very good.
