“Music is very, very important in my movies. In some ways the most important stage, whether it ends up being in the movie or not, is just when I come up with the idea itself before I have actually sat down and started writing. I go into my record room... I have a big vinyl collection and I have a room kind of set up like a used record store and I just dive into my music, whether it be rock music, or lyric music, or my soundtrack collection. What I'm looking for is the spirit of the movie, the beat that the movie will play with.” WayWritingKindImportantIdeasEndsPlayBigsUsedSpiritRoomsRecordsRocksStageMusic IsBeatsDown AndCome UpStoresSatCollectionsRock MusicSoundtracksVinylRecord Stores Author:Quentin Tarantino
“The beauty of having a studio is I can go in and record any time I want to, so you can always put down your ideas or whatever. You use your voice recorder and, you know, take your voice notes down and just preserve all the little jewels and gems when you're in there, putting that song together.” KnowsWantLittlesI CanIdeasUseTogetherSongVoiceRecordsDown AndNotesStudiosPreservesJewelsGemsRecorders Author:Big Boi
“It's like I'll sit down and put my hands on the piano or the guitar, and then I'll hear a sound or I'll feel a chord that will resonate and then I'll get something happening in my voice. My voice is like a car that I get into and drive but I don't know where I'm going. And I record everything. And often, I sort of get into a state, a creative state that is, where I'm just feeling around melodically, and playing things off the top of my head. Then I go back and listen to it and for the first time, hear what I just did. It's like Elvis has left the building while the thing is happening.” KnowsFeelsFirstsStatesFeelingsHandsLeftSoundVoiceCreativeRecordsCarBuildingHappeningsFirst TimeDown AndGuitarThings HappenPianoChords Author:Beth Nielsen Chapman
