Too many of these writers in the music papers, they are misunderstanding everything. The disco sound is not art or anything so serious.- Giorgio Moroder
The disco sound, you must see, is not art or anything so serious.
Phil Ramone is very special. Barbra Streisand or Diana Ross... they are the best.
Nowadays you need so much money to be able to launch a new artist, notably in America; you would hardly believe the sums involved.
My music was typically continental - nothing like, say, The Beatles.
It is at least 10 times more difficult to get a good synthesiser sound than on an acoustic instrument.
In pop or rock you can make a fast song or a slow one, but in disco there is really just the one rhythm.
In both pop and disco, the meaning of the lyrics is not too important. I have nothing I feel I particularly want to say.
I would not be happy to do what I do unless I felt that the large audience wanted it.
I think it would be stupid for us to try and tell people who are dancing in a discotheque about the problems of the world. That is the very thing they have come away to avoid.
I have to admit, I do not listen to much rock music.
I do not think there is too much art involved in what I do.
I am reluctant to judge things without being informed.
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.
I am much more happy doing what I know I can do than what I am not sure I could do.
