“I'm not so much in the future as always in the present. The future always takes care of itself. What I do now with my video camera, it can only record what is happening now. I am celebrating reality and the essence of the moment. And that's the greatest challenge that I have.” MomentsRealityCareChallengesRecordsHappeningsEssenceCamerasTake CareVideoCelebrateVideo Cameras Author:Jonas Mekas
“I think that people have been claiming hip-hop as being dead since the moment it started. I think there are people - and I can be included in that category sometimes - that get frustrated feeling like maybe the industry has handcuffed itself, or trained its artists to do or think about music in a way that classically hasn't led to the greatest records in hip-hop.” PeopleThinkingWayHas BeensI CanSometimesMomentsFeelingsArtistRecordsIndustryHip HopHipsHopsCategoriesFrustrated Author:El-P

“Back in the early days like for the Temptations, Supremes and Four Tops, artist development was alive in record companies. Every artist had a moment to develop the record visually. When the web took over and camera phones, it stripped the artists of the power to figure it out. So there's a need to bridge that gap and that's my job.” NeedsMomentsJobsArtistCompanyRecordsFourAliveFiguresDevelopmentCamerasPhonesSupremeTemptationBridgesGapsRecord Companies Author:Laurieann Gibson
“As I write, Johnny Rotten's first moments in "Anarchy in the U.K." - a rolling earthquake of a laugh, a buried shout, then hoary words somehow stripped of all claptrap and set down in the city streets - I AM AN ANTICHRIST - Remain as powerful as anything I know. Listening to the record today - listening to the way Johnny Rotten tears at his lines, and then hurls the pieces at the world; recalling the all-consuming smile he produced as he sang - my back stiffens; I pull away even as my scalp begins to sweat.” KnowsWorldWayWritingFirstsMomentsTodayLinesPowerfulCitiesLaughingRecordsPiecesStreetsTearsListeningBuriedAnarchySweatRollingRottenConsumingEarthquakesAntichristCity StreetsJohnny Rotten Author:Greil Marcus
“The success factor is a combination of intuition and honestly, it's mostly only intuition. A design business is inherently dependent upon the intuition of its chief designer. Luckily I have a track record that if you show me five pairs of shoes I will almost always pick the one pair that will sell the best. It's just a gift I have for mass taste - a link with what people want in a certain moment in time.” PeopleIfsWantMomentsShowsCertainRecordsFiveDesignTasteMassPicksSellsShoesTrackIntuitionHonestlyFactorsChiefsCombinationDesignerDependentPairsLinksShow MeMoments In TimePair Of ShoesTrack Record Author:Monita Rajpal
“I can walk around screaming, 'I have 17 Grand Slams. I have the record here or there.' When you can play for history and you do it, that's what is so really cool, is that you can then be compared to other greats or you've passed another great, even though it doesn't mean you're better than him. But it's just like that moment you've gone into the unknown where nobody else has ever been before.” MeanI CanPlayMomentsWalksGoneRecordsThat MomentReally CoolSlam Author:Roger Federer

“I made songs really for myself - I didn't ever expect to put it out there and make this a record for mass consumption, this was really just a way for me to get out of my own situation and reclaim that part of myself - so when making the songs, I wanted a testament to what I'd gone through, I wanted a snapshot of those moments.” WayMadeMomentsWantedSongMy OwnSituationGoneRecordsMassConsumptionTestamentSnapshotsMass Consumption Author:Frank Iero
