More quotes by Dhani Harrison
Someone recently played me 'Combination Pizza Hut and Taco Bell' by Das Racist. That should be my theme song.
Dhani Harrison
Playing music has always felt very natural. You know, you do try to do other things, and you do learn lessons that way, but, eventually - well... if your dad is a plumber, you become a plumber. It's the family business, and I felt like I was taking over the family business.
Dhani Harrison
I suddenly realized that in order to do what I wanted to do, I had to become that which I hated - which is the head of a record company or a digital media conglomerate - and just do whatever you want.

If you were the first person ever to design an application for the iPhone and you patented it, you would be very, very better off than we are right now, you know? But you've got to be the first one to do it. So I figured that Led Zeppelin or the Stones were going to do it unless we just got on to it. So I got cracking with the guys from Apple.

One interviewer asked me: 'How do you feel that you've betrayed your father?' That wasn't really very cool.

To come out in the music business, you only really get one shot. A lot of people get to play small gigs first, and build up that way, without anyone really seeing them.

Once I started to get older, my father would say, 'You look more like George Harrison than I do'
Dhani Harrison
My dad was my hero, my best friend.

I went to university (Brown), I worked as a designer, I competed in Olympic sport (rowing) ... and I ended up being a musician. It's in the DNA, I guess.
Dhani Harrison
I sometimes listen to music I made and find it to be something I wouldn't want to buy from a store, if there was a store. When it's like that, you have to make what you want to hear.
Dhani Harrison
My job description is... being enthusiastic.
Dhani Harrison
I don't ever use my name for anything in terms of getting the music heard.
Dhani Harrison
I was recording stuff with my dad when I was like five, six years old. I played with him on tour. I'd gone with him to Japan in '91, played some gigs, did a couple shows at the Albert Hall.
Dhani Harrison
I did Albert Hall, I got to play the Hall of Fame with Prince. So I've done that kind of stuff for ages. It wasn't until after we finished working on Brainwash, my dad's album after he died, then it was like 'That phase is over in my life now, now we can get on with our music, with our band.'
Dhani Harrison
I could never just play in a pub in front of four people because I would have had all the press turn up. That way, you don't get to build up naturally. It makes the work feel unnatural, and puts a lot of unnatural pressure on you.
Dhani Harrison
I love getting into a studio with a bunch of friends. When the day's done, we've made something. We recognize that we're from different walks of the music industry, and there's no reason we shouldn't be collaborating. That's what I'm trying to create with thenewno2 - a sense of community.

You don't have to burn books, you don't have to rebel against teachers to rebel to rebel is to truly own your own self.

Websites are kind of useless. There's so much great web content and design out there, but the ways in which they are being experienced are not being maximized.

Im still getting used to being called a composer. A poseur, maybe.

I did the first backwards guitar solo on ‘I’m Only Sleeping’
