Moby is one of electronic music's most visible and talked-about figures. His career spans many years and musical genres, from early rave and acid-house releases to his current R&amp;B/blues/pop/techno sample cut-ups. Notable tracks include "Next Is The E", "Everytime You Touch Me", and "Go". He found pop success with the album "Play" in 1999, which spawned hits like "Honey" and "Porcelain". Moby is also known for his outspoken religious, dietary, and animal rights views.In addition to making music, Moby has founded two labels and co-founded restaurants in New York City and Los Angeles. He has written several books including memoirs, a photography book, and cookbooks. Before becoming a DJ, he worked as a golf caddy.

Please note, some Mute issues also carry an EMI logo. This is not a label and EMI should not be added as a label, it instead indicates that Mute was part of the EMI Group.

Founded in 1978 by [a=Daniel Miller], Mute (also known as [l36339]) releases various forms of music, with an emphasis on electronic and experimental pop. In May 2002 the label was acquired by the [l=EMI Group]. In 2010 Miller did an agreement with EMI to handle Mute as an independent label again, licensing the trademark from EMI via his company [l=Mute Artists Ltd.], but EMI kept the rights over Mute's back catalogue. After the EMI Group was dissolved, in 2012 [l206061] acquired [l636]'s back catalogue.

Branch offices exist in Germany ([l168349]) and in North America ([l36296]). 

Mute has spawned many regional and special-interest sublabels, some of which are still active. One offshoot, [l=Parallel Series], even became independent of [l636] Mute also operates Mute Bank Mail Order, which sells the label's merchandise directly to consumers. Mute Bank published two issues of [i]Mute Statement[/i], a softcover book that details the entire discography of the label and includes band profiles and photos of release artwork.

Another label strongly associated with Mute is [l=Toast Hawaii], run by [a=Depeche Mode]'s [a=Andrew Fletcher].
