Music Quotes
Music tells no truths.
Philip James Bailey
Creativity is much better when it's free. Someone can take it and sell it if that's what it needs, and from that standpoint, you have to have a label. If you could make your music and just give it away and somehow make a living - that would be the best scenario.

John Mellencamp
No matter what, I still was gonna make music, even if it was on a small scale. Even if it was just for me.
Rachel Platten
To me, skin is alien and kind of weird; it weirds me out. It's strange, but it's also really intimate and personal; it's living, organic. That's how I want the music to sound; I want it to feel alien and strange, but also like it's got a heartbeat, like it's got a soul, like it's not made by a robot.
Flume
If something's upsetting me, being able to go in and work on new music makes all the difference in the world.
