Interview James Murphy Is Sick of His Records
Posted by Dave Segal on Sat, Aug 22, 2009 at 8:23 PM
LCD Soundsystem’s James Murphy gives world-class interviews. Check out a new one he did with Resident Advisor’s Nick Sylvester here. In it, among other things, Murphy expresses dismay for his records and discusses the philosophy behind his own DJing and what sort of sets by other selectors turn him on. It’s all perceptive and interesting.
My favorite DJ sets are often filled with music I don't know and then suddenly one song I know and love, that's been earned. That's as good as it gets. When you're out dancing, and somebody's been playing music you just don't know at all, and then all the sudden something comes in that you know and love, right at a good moment, that's a little more open or energetic than the previous nine things...I prefer that.
