More quotes by Brian Eno
I had a lot of trouble with engineers, because their whole background is learning from a functional point of view, and then learning how to perform that function.
Brian Eno
Most game music is based on loops effectively.
Brian Eno
I've never used a PC in my life I don't like them.
Brian Eno
Songs that don't depend on composition depend instead on performance - so the fire has to be there in the playing.
Brian Eno
Music in itself carries a whole set of messages which are very, very rich and complex, and the words either serve to exclude certain ones or point up certain others.
Brian Eno
You just make different music on a computer. And you can make wonderful music on a computer, but don't pretend that the machinery is transparent. It makes as much difference to what you're doing as it does if you play an acoustic guitar as opposed to a kettledrum. You're not going to make the same music.
Brian Eno
For me it's always contingent on getting a sound-the sound always suggests what kind of melody it should be. So it's always sound first and then the line afterwards.
Brian Eno
In my normal life I'm a very unadventurous person.
Brian Eno
If there is a new fascism, it won't come from skinheads and punks it will come from people who eat granola and think they know how the world should be.
Brian Eno
One of the things you're doing when you make art, apart from entertaining yourself and other people, is trying to see what ways of working feel good, what feels right.
Brian Eno
Genius is individual, scenius is communal.
Brian Eno
The artists of the past who impressed me were the ones who really focused their work.
Brian Eno
I enjoy working with complicated equipment. A lot of my things started just with a rhythm box, but I feed it through so many things that what comes out sounds very complex and rich.
Brian Eno
At the beginning of the 20th century, the ambition of the great painters was to make paintings that were like music, which was then considered as the noblest art.
Brian Eno
It's amazing how quickly people get used to bad quality.
Brian Eno
Editing is now the easiest thing on earth to do, and all the things that evolved out of word processing - 'Oh, let's put that sentence there, let's get rid of this' - have become commonplace in films and music too.
Brian Eno
I do sometimes look back at things I've written in the past, and think, 'I just don't remember being the person who wrote that.'
Brian Eno
It must be quite mysterious to some people why I bother to carry on. Because, you know, I don't sell that many records.
Brian Eno
Avant-garde music is sort of research music. You're glad someone's done it but you don't necessarily want to listen to it.
Brian Eno
Everybody thinks that when new technologies come along that they're transparent and you can just do your job well on it. But technologies always import a whole new set of values with them.
