Quotes from Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo

What's odd is that Romanthony and Todd Edwards are not big in the United States at all. Their music had a big effect on us.

For the second album, 'Discovery,' when we had to think about doing a live show I think we were not happy with the way it would look like and sound like. We were not happy coming onstage with just two or three samplers and a few drum machines, you know?

You cannot separate your life and your music and your job; everything's linked.
