In the Feburary 2007 issue of EQ magazine, there’s an interview with the artist Richard Melville Hall, better know as Moby (nicknamed for his great-great grand uncle Herman Melville’s classic novel Moby Dick).
“‘My goals are almost painfully simple,’ he says. ‘Honestly, all I want to do is just make music and make records. What the records might sound like, I have no idea; whether they’ll be good or not, I have no idea; whether anyone would ever want to buy them, I have no idea. But my biggest hope is to hopefully make music that I love and, maybe inadvertently, somehow make music that other people will love as well.’”
On Dr. David Hawkins’ Consciousness Scale of zero to 1000, Moby’s music in general calibrates at 256.
Seeing that the level of 200 is where Integrity and Positive Energy begins, Moby’s music calibrating at 256 helps to explain why his 1999 release Play (the only record in history to have all of its tracks commercially licensed) has sold over 10 million records.
Considering the overall level of consciousness of mankind is currently at 205 (as per Dr. Hawkins, as of August 2006), Moby’s music benefits a large portion of the population of humanity. To be specific, by Moby being fully who he is, and expressing himself in this way, 68% of the population of humanity is benefiting from his music = by virtue of the power of the field of consciousness that is being expressed.
What are you listening to?
Is the music you are listening to helping you? Is it helping to make you healthier? Is it helping to expand your awareness?
Music helps to create a certain type of environment. What are you creating? How is your environment affecting you?

What a great blog. Thanks for all of your writing. Having received a degree in music and being a student of Dr. Hawkins, I find I really relate to everything that you are saying. Reading back on your old posts, I had no idea that Tchaikovsky’s 6th Symphony calibrated so low. I have never listened to it but have always wanted to. Strangely enough, the 4th movement of the 5th symphony (which you talked about) is one of my all time favorite pieces of music to listen to. And now that I know about his 4th symphony, I will definitely have to listen to it. And I found it extremely interesting that the Nutcracker calibrates below 500…I was assuming that since it is so popular during the holiday season that it was what held Tchaichovsky at such a high level. I am very interested to know which pieces of his are over 540 in order to bring the consciousness levels of his music up to that level. I hope to hear more about your experiences with music and Dr. Hawkins.
