More quotes by Eddy de Clercq
Even nowadays some people see me as a vreemde eend in de bijt [translated literally as the strange duck in the pond. In other words, an outsider].
Eddy de Clercq
Most of this innovative new music doesn't make money so it's regarded as uninteresting for the business people and considered as underground.
Eddy de Clercq
I don't like to sit and count my money and be a happy entrepreneur.
Eddy de Clercq
Don't forget that at the end of the 70s people were much more into wild experimentation and hedonistic adventures. There was not really a fear of sexual diseases like HIV or aids back then, all that came later.
Eddy de Clercq
There are so many international musical connections here, in Amsterdam. And some of them are amazingly successful.
Eddy de Clercq
I guess that my activities inspire people and that I offer opportunities without realising what is going to happen next.
Eddy de Clercq
My policy has always been to play new music. New beat, industrial, techno, disco, funk, rare groove and house music.
Eddy de Clercq
I was born in Belgium and moved to Amsterdam when I was 17. I am not a Calvinist Dutchman but a Catholic Belgian. I think that makes a big difference.
Eddy de Clercq
When you go to a club you can talk intimately to strangers you have never met before. And they will tell you things that will be shocking to hear. Because, on the whole, people behave honestly in this situation. At the same time they can be very false.
Eddy de Clercq
Shops and clubs are very important when you want to change things. And they have a common denominator the customer.
Eddy de Clercq
In nightlife you can become a star, while in the daytime you can just be a nobody.
Eddy de Clercq
The latest trend seems to be these DJs doing pre-recorded sets, in perfect pitch with the lights & acts on stage. Everything is centred around the action from the stage. It doesn't even demand action coming from the crowd! Passive consumerism or something. Mayhem with an overwhelming sound that isn't actually good music. More like diarrhoea.
Eddy de Clercq
In your daytime life you have to be more strict.
Eddy de Clercq
I believe that the Belgians do possess some surrealistic gene.
Eddy de Clercq
That's the main thing. People have to feel it's real. If they feel there's something commercial or some fake thing behind it, then the feeling is definitely different.
Eddy de Clercq
The way Electronic Dance Music [EDM] is manipulated and exported to the world is a very strong, and total concept. But it's not that interesting artistically. EDM is seen by some media as a kickstarter for kids who have no idea how deep dance music can go.
Eddy de Clercq
Holland is very good at avant garde, probably due to the Dutch character. Good at design. Experimentation sometimes works here very well.
Eddy de Clercq
In nightlife you can do anything you want, because that is the fantasy life, the opposite of your daily life. Everything - except violence - is tolerated. And that is why it is so surrealistic in a way.
Eddy de Clercq
I don't like cliques. I used to go out a lot in London with friends. And London can be very cliquey. I mean if you don't belong to one set you don't go to a particular party.
Eddy de Clercq
A scene can be created when people are coming together. Either to shop or to hang out.
