My grand plan is that I can master having a better life by making sure I have a regular flow of songs. Then I can give myself time to tour or celebrate or write a film score. Imogen Heap Read Quote
I get so fed up with the making of an album taking over my life – it’s all I can think about or talk about. You find yourself in a rut and lacking inspiration and it’s hard to get out of that because I’m working alone in the studio. Imogen Heap Read Quote
My songs have a lot going on in them -they’re packed with sounds. When I have only three or four minutes to capture something, I guess I can’t stand the idea of any bar going unloved. Imogen Heap Read Quote
Once I actually get in the studio and I start working, I’m fine, but it’s just getting there and these hours of torment with myself and self doubt, thinking ‘I’m useless’ and ‘Who am I, conning myself into thinking I can do it again.’ Imogen Heap Read Quote
I’m interested in creating a little sound world for songs, really crafting it, building it, and making it like a little doll’s house with little things inside it, staircases and rooms and everything kind of relates to everything else. I’ve never seen it as drums, bass, guitar and vocals in very separate spaces. Imogen Heap Read Quote
Living in the U.K., there is no way to know whether anyone in India likes my music, but I was surprised to see people singing along while I performed in Pune. Imogen Heap Read Quote
Some people think electronic music is cold, but I think that has more to do with the people listening than the actual music itself. Imogen Heap Read Quote
I just love crafting and shaping sounds. Actually, many of the sounds that I work with start off as organic instruments – guitar, piano, clarinet, etc. But I do love the rigidity of electronic drums. Imogen Heap Read Quote
It may come as a surprise, but Frou Frou was really like a kind of little holiday from my own work. Guy and I, we have always worked together, and then over the years, it became clear that we wanted to do a whole album together. It was very organic and spontaneous – just one of those wonderful things that happens. Imogen Heap Read Quote
So many venues are owned by these various different ticketing and promoting people, and they’re all in bed with one another. It’s no secret over here. Imogen Heap Read Quote
