The making of music is profoundly affected by the market. – David Byrne
Im not suggesting people abandon musical instruments and start playing their cars and apartments, but I do think the reign of music as a commodity made only by professionals might be winding down. – David Byrne
If anything, a lot of electronic music is music that no one listens to at home, hardly. Its really only to be heard when everyones out enjoying it. – David Byrne
It seems almost backwards to me that my music seems the more emotional outlet, and the art stuff seems more about ideas. – David Byrne
All that stuff about heavy metal and hard rock, I dont subscribe to any of that. Its all just music. I mean, the heavy metal from the 70s sounds nothing like the stuff from the 80s, and that sounds nothing like the stuff from the 90s. Whos to say what is and isnt a certain type of music? – Neil Young
