“Everytime You Touch Me” first dropped in 1995 on Moby‘s landmark album ‘Everything Is Wrong.’ It was one of those tracks that perfectly captured the mid-90s rave explosion.
No doubt, among Moby best songs, this one stood out as a real hands-in-the-air moment, built to make crowds lose their minds. Now, nearly 30 years later, he’s handed it over to UK rising star KING BOOO!, who completely flipped it into a high-energy club weapon.
Also, it’s worth mentioning that this version sounds way more powerful than the original. Judge for yourself, the music video is right below.
Two Worlds Collide: When a 90s Icon Meets His Biggest Fan
Moby is back in a big way, linking up with UK electronic rising star KING BOOO! to flip that very classic into something made entirely for today’s clubs. The collab is a genuine bridge between two generations of electronic music, and honestly, it works.
When talking about Moby best songs, “Everytime You Touch Me” was already near the top, now it’s got a whole new life.
Beyond that, the whole thing started when the 90s icon stumbled onto KING BOOO!’s music and flew him out to LA to make it happen in person.
And for the next-gen producer, this wasn’t just another studio session. He grew up listening to Moby, making this collab something of a full-circle moment.
Obviously, the outcome is a euphoric rework that stays true to the original while feeling totally current.
Big Timing — Hello, Coachella
The drop lands right alongside Moby’s Coachella comeback, making it a pretty massive cultural moment. And in true Moby fashion, he’s announced that his Coachella earnings will go straight to animal rights causes.
On top of that, a second track, “NEXT IS THE E (BE WITH YOU),” is already lined up for late May, so this is clearly just the beginning of a wider campaign.
The Music Video That Took Over London’s Street
Over in the UK, director Oliver Jennings headed up a bold visual stunt, projecting footage from the original music video onto buildings across London, designed to stop scrollers in their tracks and create a real buzz on socials.
Add to that solo dancers showing off their best moves to the electronic dance music at 138 BPM. And honestly, it was about time Moby went back to his roots with this oldschool groove that everyone is loving.
