RELEVANS

Citater

I denne sektion kan du læse de citater, som Geigers redaktion med jævne mellemrum har fundet frem fra de store musikarkiver.

"Everybody is becoming like ... a Stasi agent, constantly observing himself or his friends."

Ralf Hütter, Kraftwerk, om moderne mobilteknologi


"The thing that's always bothered me is the idea that musicians are somehow touched by God with talent. That's bullshit – it's all work. Hendrix was a kickass guitar player because he worked at it; he wasn't born a guitar player. That's why I loathe that movie Amadeus. The idea that Mozart was touched by genius, it's total bullshit. It takes credit away from him, really. It's an insult."

Dylan Carlson, Earth


"I never had to really fight because I never thought I would do this. It was just like the other around. I was picked by the hand of someone up there who said, “You will do music”. I never thought, even my parents never thought I would make music. I was so naive in a way. I was not expecting anything, I was just really passionate. I was just taking every opportunity to go to parties and meet people because I love this music. Then, when I started to DJ I was not expecting to be booked anywhere, I just bought records for fun. Then my friends told me I should play, and then it worked. Then I realized I was living from it. I was not expecting anything, not expecting to be famous and not expecting to sing. It was just for fun and everything was a bonus."

Miss Kittin om sin karriere


"I could compare my music to white light which contains all colours. Only a prism can divide the colours and make them appear; this prism could be the spirit of the listener."

Arvo Pärt


"Of course voting is useful. But then again, I don't put a big glow to it. Voting is about as essential as washing yourself. It's something you're supposed to do. Now, you can't go around bragging, expecting to get props because you voted. That's stupid."

Chuck D fra Public Enemy


"The truth is you can't expect anything, but I really am dead if I don't get my record out this year."

Kevin Shields fra My Bloody Valentine i 1997!


"I remember walking out of Fahrenheit 9/11 and I almost felt like I did something. “Yeah, I’m totally against it and I’m anti-Bush and I’m doing something to correct it!” But really I just watched a movie. I went back home and got stoned. It gives you this false idea that you’re doing something."

Julian Gross fra Liars om forskellen mellem protest og protest


"All these people are staring at you and it's like you know when you have a conversation with someone, there's eye contact, but you don't stare. You don't fucking stare at every square inch of their body.. their face, their neck, their fingers, their breasts, their butt, their knees, shoes, clothes, their face, sweat, lips..."

Cat Power om det værste ved at spille live


"One day I'm going to write a straight-ahead story. I really want to, but I can't at the moment. I'm not very good at it right now."

Stephen Malkmus


"Musikalsk var vi selv inspirerede af Joy Division og The Cure, som ingen andre kendte der på skolen. Eller i byen overhovedet. Vi lyttede også intenst til Sort Sol og Ballet Mecanique, og skrev underlige breve til Martin Hall. Henrik havde til Reaktions første koncert - endnu uden mig - annonceret deres musik som nyromantisk avantgarderock, og da folk af vane begyndte at danse til musikken til gymnasiefesten, sagde han hårdt og koldt ind i mikrofonen: “Dette er ikke underholdning!”."

Peter H. Olesen genkalder sig sin musikalske barndom på www.substans.info


"If you want to be entertained, go and see Hanson!"

Thom Yorke


"I decided, if I'm going to be poor and black and all, the least thing I'm going to do is to try and find out who I am. I created everything about me."

Ornette Coleman


"Singing and playing violin, well, I've done it, but it's not fun. I mean, it looks like the violin is growing out of your neck."

Joan Wasser (Joan as Police Woman) om musikalsk multitasking


"For me, something that’s stripped down and brown might be totally contrived and full of artifice, and something like Leigh Bowery might be a direct hotline to something that’s very authentic. The word ‘artifice,’ to me, is like ‘cabaret,’ it has the same sting; there’s this idea that there’s a process of veiling, something that isn’t true. With someone like Candy Darling, what some might perceive as artifice, this gesture of femininity, is actually a revelation of a true sense of herself: a more intimate gesture couldn’t be made, it couldn’t be more authentic. ‘Artifice’ suggests to me a baroque frill, a sense of defense, a layer of something that separates you from the truth. Sometimes form and creative expression magnifies the truth."

Antony (Antony and the Johnsons) indkredser begrebet autencitet


"What is the difference between America and Yogurt? Yogurt has culture."

Humor ifølge Klaus Schulze
