Les Rythmes Digitales Quotes

There�s two things I hate about British dance music. First of all, it�s faceless. It�s by and large a bunch of guys who want to make music and make records but don�t want people to see their face. Nobody except sad funny-looking little gits anyway. But they don�t want people to see their face, it�s all about being faceless and cool and underground and that really just doesn�t have a lot of relevance to me, I don�t really feel like that. I mean, my interests lie in pop music, my interests lie in people looking and seeing what I look like on stage and that kind of thing. So that�s one thing I hate about the British music scene. Now, to combat that, I�ve dyed my hair red and put a picture of myself on my album cover, so it�s pretty obvious where I�m headed with that.
And the second thing I hate was with British live dance music shows, they�re all shit. They�re still equating to a guy standing on stage with a mixing disk and a keyboard, pressing a few buttons and twiddling a few knobs, and smoking a cigarette and waving his hand in the air. That isn�t really a show, you may as well put the CD on loud. So to me a live performance should be just that, it should be a performance.
