Giorgio Moroder Quotes

I am certainly not racist; I even like the British Picture Quote #1

My music was typically continental - nothing like, say, The Beatles Picture Quote #1

Nowadays you need so much money to be able to launch a new artist, notably in America; you would hardly believe the sums involved Picture Quote #1

Phil Ramone is very special. Barbra Streisand or Diana Ross... they are the best Picture Quote #1

What Skrillex does with Ableton it’s like being a little God. It’s not just pushing loops - that’s easy - but to do the effects he’s a genius Picture Quote #1

In film, I was surprised when I first saw the movie ‘Drive.’ I said, ‘Oh, God. It sounds great - I love it. Wow, this could be the soundtrack from ‘American Gigolo’ or ‘Cat People.’ But I’m surprised that the director would agree with a composer to write that kind of sound Picture Quote #1

You had me at hello - Love Quotes

I never make the same mistake twice. I make it five or six times, just to be sure - Funny Quotes

I was involved with a sports car called Cizeta-Moroder, which was the first 16-cylinder car, beautiful. I think we sold about eight cars, and then in 92 the economic crash came, and we had to close the shop Picture Quote #1

I listen to the group Disclosure; they have great sounds. Maybe not as adventurous as Skrillex. I think the key thing is to have those beautiful sounds... the amazing sounds of Skrillex are almost phenomenal Picture Quote #1

I like the sounds of EDM; the guys create new sounds, beautiful sounds. The melodies, it’s a little less. I like the kind of melodies I did with Donna Summer, or ‘Flashdance,’ where you have a verse, a chorus - a song setup Picture Quote #1

A producer is always behind the scenes, even more in the movies - nobody sees you. I didn’t even meet most of the actors. When I worked on ‘Top Gun,’ I never met Tom Cruise. You were always in the background Picture Quote #1

Once you free your mind about a concept of music and harmony being correct, you can do whatever you want Picture Quote #1

My favorite would be ‘Love to Love You’ because from zero, I went to Number One. I don’t think it’s the best song - the best one is probably between ‘Flashdance’ and ‘Take My Breath Away.’ Picture Quote #1

I told you I'll be ready in FIVE minutes, stop calling me every half hour - Funny Quotes

I meant to behave but there were too many other options - Funny Quotes

I designed a sports car, the Cizeta-Moroder, with Marcello Gandini from Lamborghini; he did the Countach, of course. The Cizeta cost $600,000, but we could bargain - if a Japanese businessman says he wants it for three, fine Picture Quote #1

Unless you use the vocoder the way Daft Punk use it, it is very limited. When they sing it’s almost human. It sounds sexy. I just used it as an effect. It wasn’t because I was not able to sing; I’m not a great singer, but I had some hits as a singer, too. It’s a nice effect Picture Quote #1

Even when disco went out, I could still make hits. Once I had so much success, every idea became concentrated. I had so much confidence. I knew how the bass should sound, what rhythms would work. The tempos I knew: 110 to 120 BPM. I knew they would dance in the clubs in New York or anywhere Picture Quote #1

One day. I was putting on a hill in Zurich, and a few hundred yards away, Diana Ross was doing a sound test at an arena for a performance that night of ‘Take My Breath Away,’ my song with her. That was a very nice game, an incredible feeling Picture Quote #1

Dance music doesn’t care where you live. It doesn’t care who your friends are. It doesn’t care how much money you make. It doesn’t care if you’re 74 or if you are 24 because... 74 is the new 24! Picture Quote #1

I love Lady Gaga, Rihanna - all the pop girls like Katy Perry. I think Miley Cyrus is very talented, too. Apart from the visuals, which you may like or not like, but her music is quite good, actually. ‘Wrecking Ball’ is quite a good song, and she sang it really nicely Picture Quote #1

A year from now you'll wish you started today - Work Quotes

Together is my favorite place to be - Love Quotes

I achieved something specially different with Love To Love You Baby and I Feel Love. These songs will endure Picture Quote #1

Disco is music for dancing, and people will always want to dance Picture Quote #1

I am reluctant to judge things without being informed Picture Quote #1

I don’t think there is too much art involved in what I do Picture Quote #1

I have to admit, I do not listen to much rock music Picture Quote #1

Disco does work better with black artists or players. They just feel it more Picture Quote #1

Don't look back you're not going that way - Inspirational Quotes

Money may not buy happiness, but it's better to cry in a Lamborghini - Funny Quotes

The disco sound, you must see, is not art or anything so serious Picture Quote #1

It is at least 10 times more difficult to get a good synthesiser sound than on an acoustic instrument Picture Quote #1

Too many of these writers in the music papers, they are misunderstanding everything. The disco sound is not art or anything so serious Picture Quote #1

Every business is there to make money, and making a record is business. This tends to be forgotten by many Picture Quote #1

I am not so complicated or intelligent a composer, nor am I very interested in becoming so. I am much more happy doing what I know I can do than what I am not sure I could do Picture Quote #1

In both pop and disco, the meaning of the lyrics is not too important. I have nothing I feel I particularly want to say Picture Quote #1
