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. – Giorgio Moroder
I achieved something specially different with Love To Love You Baby and I Feel Love. These songs will endure. – Giorgio Moroder
I love Lady Gaga, Rihanna – all the pop girls like Katy Perry. I think Miley Cyrus is very talented, too. Apart from the visuals, which you may like or not like, but her music is quite good, actually. ‘Wrecking Ball’ is quite a good song, and she sang it really nicely. – Giorgio Moroder
I like the sounds of EDM; the guys create new sounds, beautiful sounds. The melodies, it’s a little less. I like the kind of melodies I did with Donna Summer, or ‘Flashdance,’ where you have a verse, a chorus – a song setup. – Giorgio Moroder
Now, the DJ becomes a star in itself because of the way he programs the songs with lows and then highs and then slowing it down. The big DJs, like Tiesto and Deadmau5 and all those guys, they are very, very creative. – Giorgio Moroder
In both pop and disco, the meaning of the lyrics is not too important. I have nothing I feel I particularly want to say. – Giorgio Moroder
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. – Giorgio Moroder
Nowadays you need so much money to be able to launch a new artist, notably in America; you would hardly believe the sums involved. – Giorgio Moroder
I am much more happy doing what I know I can do than what I am not sure I could do. – Giorgio Moroder
Dance music doesn’t care where you live. It doesn’t care who your friends are. It doesn’t care how much money you make. It doesn’t care if you’re 74 or if you are 24 because… 74 is the new 24! – Giorgio Moroder
It is at least 10 times more difficult to get a good synthesiser sound than on an acoustic instrument. – Giorgio Moroder
I listen to the group Disclosure; they have great sounds. Maybe not as adventurous as Skrillex. I think the key thing is to have those beautiful sounds… the amazing sounds of Skrillex are almost phenomenal. – Giorgio Moroder
In pop or rock you can make a fast song or a slow one, but in disco there is really just the one rhythm. – Giorgio Moroder
When I’m dead, somebody can write my biography. I wrote a national hymn, an anthem, which I don’t want to present to that country. But I have a deal with my wife – when I’m dead, she should offer it, because then I’m safe. – Giorgio Moroder
My favorite would be ‘Love to Love You’ because from zero, I went to Number One. I don’t think it’s the best song – the best one is probably between ‘Flashdance’ and ‘Take My Breath Away.’ – Giorgio Moroder
Every business is there to make money, and making a record is business. This tends to be forgotten by many. – Giorgio Moroder
I would not be happy to do what I do unless I felt that the large audience wanted it. – Giorgio Moroder
