DJ Shadow about the obscure records he sampled in Endtroducing:

"You're looking through all these records, and it's sort of like a big pile of broken dreams in a way, almost none of these artists still have a career, if you're making records, you're just adding to this pile, whether you want to admit it or not"

That's an interesting DJ Shadow quote.

Here's some wisdom from Vex'd that hit me, they were talking about making Degenerate.

"It also felt like the obvious pressure to make people dance wasn’t there, which really allowed the music to develop."

Saw someone had something in their sig apparently by Datsik that said...
'just stay out of all the Datsik/Excision bassline stuff and you'll be fine'.
Or something to that extent. It was at a time where I was obsessed with learning how to make their sounds. >.<
But yeah, producing has been so much more satisfying since.

"My freedom will be so much the greater and more meaningful the more narrowly I limit my field of action and the more I surround myself with obstacles. Whatever diminishes constraint diminishes strength. The more constraints one imposes, the more one frees oneself of the claims that shackle the spirit."
- Igor Stravinsky

"Champagne for my real friends, real pain for my sham friends."
- Tom Waits

The best quote ever comes from that 'dubstep - a beginners guide' youtube video.

The question was: "Where can people go to find hear more dubstep?". Skream, Benga, and Joe Nice all suggest clubs and events and things to get down to to experience it.

Stenchman answers; "Well, if you just type dubstep into google loads of little things will come up".

I belive Peter Tosh said something along the lines of "Everyone wants to go to heaven, But no one wants to die."


I'll let you guys think about the meaning of it.
