Pagers are my life--I try to get them in to our music as much as possible.
John Frusciante
We’re really lucky to live in a planet that has so much music. We could be living in some bland planet that had no music, no movies, no books, just a bunch of people going around having jobs and things like that. To me that would be a really miserable place, you know, to me music is what makes this world a really fun place to be, you know?
John Frusciante
For me, living and making music, they're one thing. It's not like a job that I go to a studio to do, or a chore that I have to get myself in the mood to do, or something. It's the thing that I need to do every day.
John Frusciante
I combine aspects of many styles of music and create my own musical forms by way of electronic instruments.
John Frusciante
I think an analogue synth is an extension of the natural world.
John Frusciante
People fall into patterns at fast speeds, when really, to have a clear musical thought - the kind of musical thought that makes a melody work - our brains just can't think that fast. At a certain point, you're going on automatic.
John Frusciante
Rock guitarists usually do not wish to think trains of thought about anything but their own guitar playing during a long solo, and I could not play this way if I were not able to divide my attention between my ever changing musical environment and my instrument itself.
John Frusciante
So when I feel the spirit upon me it's something I don't take it for granted, and I don't think I'm solely responsible for these things.
John Frusciante
But I think I know just as many creative people who've never taken drugs in their life as I do who have taken a lot of drugs.
John Frusciante
To me music is the centre of the universe and the voice of the spirits and the voice of God and the voice of all the people who have lived and died...At least the ones I'm connected to.
John Frusciante
Making art is about accepting what’s going on around you and turning it into
John Frusciante
Music has always carried me through times of loneliness. So when I make music, I like it to make people who listen to it feel like they have a friend who reveals something personal to them, rather than trying to be like a god up on a pedestal
John Frusciante
You just never know when somebodys gonna die. It could happen at any moment so youve got to really treat everybody that way. Just really let everybody know how you feel about them.
John Frusciante
What's gone will never come back, but it exists when you think of it.
John Frusciante
What really helps me is being able to record my albums at home - I have more fun experimenting that way, as opposed to working with an engineer, in which case I have to deal with the humiliation of doing take after take, and that can get frustrating.
John Frusciante
I never feel like I'm running out of ideas, because it is clear to me - music is infinite
John Frusciante
I'm not interested in meeting people's expectations, and I'm not interested in pleasing people.
John Frusciante
I've been in pain hope it doesn't show I've been insane well the time is slow
John Frusciante
For me it's important to be in balance. To not let fear get in the way of things, to not worry so much about protecting yourself all the time.
John Frusciante
You know this moment in time Is all my life Every day is each day that's passed Every person alive is everyone's who's died
John Frusciante
