Moby has just released stems from his new album, Innocents, via BitTorrent, taking the time to give his two cents on the whole Thom Yorke vs Spotify saga.
“Artists who are adaptable are doing fine. A musician who makes records, tours, DJs, remixes, does music for video games and films is doing fine,” the electronic musician said of the current music climate.
“I love Thom Yorke,” he continued, “but when I heard him complaining about Spotify, I’m like, “You’re just like an old guy yelling at fast trains”.”
Yorke has responded via Twitter, saying “I am a 45 yr old Luddite and proud of it.. yawn”.
