Moby has reflected on his early-1990s feud with Aphex Twin, admitting that “there was a sadness to it”. The conflict dates back to a 1993 joint headline tour between Moby, Aphex Twin and Orbital. The tension reportedly developed between the two artists due in part to Moby’s insistence on travelling to each gig by plane, while the others went by tour bus.
Speaking to Stereogum, the US electronic artist has addressed the issue, saying: “There was a sadness to it, because I really liked his records. I especially liked [‘Selected Ambient Works 85-92′].

Zack Sharf Digital News Director Chris Pine was taken by surprise when news hit that Steve Yockey, creator of the Max series “The Flight Attendant,” had signed on to write the script for “Star Trek 4.” Why? “I thought there was already a script,” the actor recently told Business Insider during an interview on his “Poolman” press tour. Pine’s not wrong, as a potential “Star Trek 4” has gone through multiple iterations in the years since the 2016 release of “Star Trek Beyond.” Pine took on the role of Captain Kirk in J.J. Abrams’ 2009 franchise reboot “Star Trek,” and reprised the character in 2013’s “Star Trek Into Darkness” and 2016’s “Beyond.” Variety exclusively reported in March that Paramount Pictures remained committed to making a fourth “Star Trek” film to be headlined by Pine and his co-stars.
