Moby goes punk

The dance artist is going back to his roots for new LP

Moby is preparing to head into the studio to record a series of punk songs for his next album.

While no release dates have yet been set, a posting on his official website revealed the news.

He wrote: "Over the last year I've written lots and lots of punk rock songs, and now I'm going to record them with (drummer) Scott Frassetto. They are definitely in the the fun but very rough camp of punk rock songs."

The dance artist is also working on a separate project under his Voodoo Child alter ego, his first since 2004's 'Baby Monkey'.

He added: "The Voodoo Child songs are very melodic and electronic and experimental and not exactly club-classic floor fillers."
