Richard David James Quotes

  • I got a feeling I had loads when I was in primary school, ’cause I had red hair; you know, like Duracell.
  • Can’t really despise people you don’t know.
  • It started off at a club called Disobey, around the corner from where I live.
  • There’s a lot of melancholy in my tracks.
  • I used to make up names when I used to catalog my stuff.
  • It’s quite similar to guitar solos, only with programming you have to use your brain. The most important thing is that it should have some emotional effect on me, rather than just, ‘Oh, that’s really clever.’
  • It sounds really arrogant, but my music’s my favourite music ever. I prefer it to anyone else’s.
  • Well, I just bought a massive bank and I’ve moved into it on my own.
  • I’m a really good hacker, but I’m not a sensible person.
  • The best musicians or sound-artists are people who never considered themselves to be artists or musicians.
  • Sometimes I just hit the keyboard in a way I’d like the rhythm of the tracks to sound.
  • [on his music being used in advertising] They always use my stuff on programmes about surgery, or rapists, or paedophilia, or murder, or war… which is better than it being used on some cooking or DIY programme, I suppose!
  • [on Christopher Morris] He’s amazing, that geezer.
