Sound Quotes
-
I'll forbear; And am fallen out with my more headier will To take the indisposed and sickly fit For the sound man.
William Shakespeare
-
However now we can create a sound that can truly startle someone and in terms of sound effects I think the environment that we are in now has improved dramatically.
Nobuo Uematsu
The Black Mages
-
I can't draw. But I can draw with sound. That's the most useful thing I learned in terms of what my craft is... The arrangements were mine. They were little lines and stuff that I had written myself... And I was locked into this idea that vocals didn't count, melodies didn't count, songwriting craftsmanship didn't count. The only thing that counted was high arching guitar solos...
Linda Ronstadt

Ingrid Michaelson

Time, as he passes us, has a dove's wing,
Unsoil'd, and swift, and of a silken sound.
William Cowper

Attempts to tame the wayward and domesticate the riotous, to make the unknowable predictable and enchain the free-roaming - all such things sound the death knell to love.
Zygmunt Bauman

Musicians today have gotten used to Protools, which I hate. You can go into the studio and not even be a musician, just start beating on stuff and they can take parts out of it, move it around and then you can sound like Slash. If you want some kind of weird feedback effect in the middle of a guitar solo, now they can just fly it in. You don't have to sit there and work at it like you did back in the day.
Mick Mars
Mötley Crüe

I have a love of gear and pedals, from old pedals to new ones with new sounds. If I get depressed, I start looking for a certain type of pedal, learn the history, who and what it was made for, that kinda thing.
Hank Williams III
-
I’ve always though of music as a physical thing, but the actual act of creating thick, LOUD and pretty pieces of sound through PA systems really made me lose my shit and realize that there was something pretty amazing about having music completely wash over you and stop you from thinking about anything else.
Nigel Wright
Shakatak
-
What we were trying to do differently was this sort of layered sound.
Brian May
Queen

You make choices that are good and sound, but the gods have other plans for you.
