Kaytranada Zitate auf Englisch

Zitat des Tages von Kaytranada:

I've always wanted to push someone who's not really known but has mad talent. I don't know if I'm going to do a publishing company or a record label, but I'm interested in pushing artists in any sense.

I come from hip hop for sure, and there are basic elements of that, but then I'll take from somewhere else, like samba, and do it with trap drums. I like going places other people haven't gone before.

The way I picked the tracks for '99.9%' was based on the feeling of, 'Is this going to be a hit?' I wanted songs that people would immediately hear and remember.

I've always wanted to produce a whole album for an artist.

I've always wanted to push someone who's not really known but has mad talent. I don't know if I'm going to do a publishing company or a record label, but I'm interested in pushing artists in any sense.

Kaytranada

I know a lot of people who jumped into a record label right away, dropped an album, and then nothing happened for them. Build your fan base first, and follow your gut.

Kaytranada

When I make a good beat, I'm possessed. I'm not on earth!

Kaytranada

It's easier to collaborate with instrumentalists than singers; they know exactly the sound that I need.

I'm from the suburbs, really, so I actually didn't go to Montreal until I was, like, 19. I wasn't allowed to go to the city at night or really be in the scene with other producers. It was hard for my parents to understand what I was trying to do as an artist, but it didn't stop me. They eventually saw that it wasn't a joke.

I can't judge Justin Bieber, because I don't know him.

Kaytranada

I'm my own stylist. Always! I don't wanna hire someone to chose what I should wear. At the same time, I do always wanna wear some crazy clothes.

Kaytranada

I felt like there were two people inside me. I was trying to be somebody I was not, and I was frustrated that people didn't know who I was.

Kaytranada

The producing side is always a hard thing for me. I look at Flying Lotus and see producers dropping instrumentals, and I think I should do it myself. I just try to be an artist for myself. That way, it's a lot easier.

Kaytranada

I don't think about doing new. I just do it.

Kaytranada

I don't feel like a live set even seems super real for an electronic act like me. It's not really that entertaining. I've seen a lot of my favourite acts take it to a new level with a live band and stuff, which is amazing, but for me, a live set would be boring to watch.

Kaytranada

I used to listen to my music on the bus. It was one of my favourite things, to look out the window and over at the Jacques Cartier Bridge and Parc Jean-Drapeau.

Kaytranada

Nando's - boom! That's what I'm thinking of whenever I'm in London. I go there every time.

Kaytranada

You gotta be versatile, man.

Kaytranada

It's pretty much about doing what you love and following your dreams. It sounds really corny, but it's so real.

Kaytranada

I didn't finish high school. I tried to as an adult, but with all this touring, I had to quit.

Kaytranada

I don't want awkward shows with people looking at their phones or tweeting. That's something you should do at home.

Kaytranada

I suck at video games.
