Covering his youth in the 1970s until his worldwide success in the late 1990s with Play, the book also discusses the author's spiritual struggles as a Christian, initial avoidance of and eventual recreational drug use,[1] and interest in animal rights and veganism. The book has been met favorably by critics. He has plans for a future volume covering the following decade.[2] PlotChapters are centered around short stories, which Moby modeled after the sort of casual conversations that he would have at a bar, intending each one to end with a defined punch line.[2] The book opens in 1976 with the author as a youth living with his mother in Darien and Stratford, Connecticut. After discussing some of his foundational memories of popular music, including Led Zeppelin and disco,[5] the book jumps ahead to 1989, after he has been living in an abandoned factory for two years. He eventually ends up doing regular gigs DJing at New York house clubs such as Limelight and Mars and begins recording his first songs as Voodoo Child. The book follows his personal relationships and recording career as he tours internationally in the mid 1990s and eventually becomes famous with the release of Play in 1998. ReceptionThe book has received positive reviews from critics and authors. Rock critic Greg Kot of The Chicago Tribune called the book "exceptional and incisive". The New York Journal of Books review by Paul LaRosa calls Moby a "shrewd, thoughtful, and insightful" author and ends, "This memoir has plenty of charm and if you grew up in the ’90s, this one’s for you. If not, well, it’s not THAT charming."[7] Music from Porcelain{{Infobox album| name = Music from Porcelain | type = compilation | longtype = mixtape | artist = Moby and various artists | cover = | alt = | released = {{startdate|2016|5|17|df=yes}} | recorded = Various | venue = | studio = Various | genre = {{hlist|Electronica|rave|alternative rock}} | length = | language = {{hlist|English|instrumental}} | label = Little Idiot Because Music | producer = Various | compiler = Moby | chronology = Moby | prev_title = Calm.
