Considering that the description states, &#8220;debut album coming soon,&#8221; the title of the video seems likely to be the title of a new album that he will be releasing soon.<\/p><p>It wouldn&#8217;t make sense if it was solely his new album,\u00a0as the legendary producer,\u00a0DJ, and more recently singer-songwriter (not to mention author and photographer), has released over 10 studio albums over the course of his decades-long career. He has had numerous side projects in recent years, the most recent and active of which, a group called Moby &amp; The Void Pacific Choir, seems to be a very likely contender.<\/p><p>Though this group has released songs mainly in the realm of alternative rock, with Moby&#8217;s reputation for experimentation,\u00a0it&#8217;s best to leave the expectations at the door and go in with a very open mind.<\/p><p><iframe\nsrc=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/5Og42ldefVc\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p><p><em>H\/T: <a\nhref=\"http:\/\/mixmag.net\/read\/mobys-new-album-tells-us-these-systems-are-failing-news\">Mixmag<\/a><\/em><\/p> <img src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~r\/DancingAstronaut\/~4\/BtN70Yg-7hA\" height=\"1\" width=\"1\" alt=\"\"\/>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The legendary DJ, producer, live musician, author and photographer Moby teased a new album this week by posting a video titled, &#8220;These Systems Are Failing.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[3],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/earthquakemix.com\/boom\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/67819"}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/earthquakemix.com\/boom\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/earthquakemix.com\/boom\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/earthquakemix.com\/boom\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/earthquakemix.com\/boom\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=67819"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"http:\/\/earthquakemix.com\/boom\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/67819\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":67833,"href":"http:\/\/earthquakemix.com\/boom\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/67819\/revisions\/67833"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/earthquakemix.com\/boom\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=67819"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/earthquakemix.com\/boom\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=67819"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/earthquakemix.com\/boom\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=67819"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
