Records Quotes
The thing I do, really, is a communication with audiences more than any achievement through records.
Richard Thompson
An important document of the paper of record at a crucial, make-or-break juncture in its long, glorious history, and a love letter to the dying art form that is the great American newspaper.
Nathan Rabin
For a producer, you want to be in L.A. You want to be close to the action, and in L.A. there are always singers, artists, songwriters, collaborators and other producers. It's easy to get access to all that, which gives you more opportunity to work records.
Steve Aoki
The main thing in measuring integrity is someone's motive and intent, not how many records they sell. Our intent in Ministry was never to be big. We just wanted to make enough money to live and to buy a studio, which we have done in Austin.
Al Jourgensen
1000 Homo DJs
There's such a magnitude of record taking. It's so exhaustive. Bandwidth and hard drive space are able to accommodate limitless capacities to take a record of anything and everything.
Sufjan Stevens
A lot of people are promoting records that are just throw-it-agains t-the-wall-see- if-it-sticks meaningless bullshit. Everybody has the responsibility to do the right thing and promote artists that mean something.
Dave Grohl
Nirvana
Man himself is an enigma in motion; his questions never stay asked; whereas the mold, the footprint, and by natural extension, the statue itself, like the vaults, the arches, the temples with which man records his own passing, remain immobile and fix a moment of man's life, upon which one might endlessly meditate.
Emile Chartier
I don't purchase records. I do enjoy listening to things like Japanese folk music or Indian music.
John Lennon
The Beatles
I love music, right? I can't say "I'm only going to listen to a physical medium," because there's a bunch of meaningful records that as a music fan I love that I would've never been able to access. So if I want to be part of something I have to get dragged along with technology.
Chuck Klosterman
I generally had a pretty good relationship with Siouxsie. She can have a pretty sharp sense of humour, but can also be quite playful at times. I liked playing records with her and especially talking about Mick Ronson. She reckoned that whilst everyone admired Bowie as Ziggy, Mick was sexier.
Jon Klein
Siouxsie and the Banshees
With 'Bangarang,' I didn't make any announcement, no campaign. I just put it on my Facebook and some other places. That's how I've done everything with my previous records. I've always kept it organic.
Sonny John Moore
Selling records is fantastic. But if you're not loving what you do, and if everybody is throwing knives at you, it can get old very fast.
Wesley Borland
Big Dumb Face
I'm a huge fan of Geffen records. Everything about them - their artists, their videos, their marketing.
Guy Oseary
I always think I'm going to record a lot on tour but it's always hard to fit it in the schedule, and there's a whole lotta' other extra curricular activities that happen on the road.
G-Eazy
SST was formed to put out the first Black Flag record. Basically, there wasn't anyone else to do it. I felt that what I was doing with Black Flag was very worthwhile, and I wanted to get it out there.
Greg Ginn
Black Flag
Imagine if you had baseball cards that showed all the performance stats for your people: batting averages, home runs, errors, ERAs, win/loss records. You could see what they did well and poorly and call on the right people to play the right positions in a very transparent way.
Ray Dalio
My record of opposition to illegal immigration is unquestioned.
Ann Wagner
It would be great to do a rock opera, but using more low-fi technology. I love shitty-sounding records.
Billie Joe Armstrong
Green Day
