Pharrell on Daft

QUOTE OF THE DAY: "The idea of people collaborating is cool. But I think more than anything else I'm just excited about the change, a new wave in music. There's something happening in the ether, and you know about it or you don't. And if you know, it's because you're probably somewhere engineering the change. If you don't know about it then you're probably somewhere missing your call, and you're gonna end up chasing it… The people that are leading are gonna do some really incredible things because they're reaching from oblivion to come up with new stuff. So, to me, that's interesting to watch. I think the robots are leading. Daft Punk, they're definitely leading." —Pharrell Williams, key contributor to Random Access Memories and the lead singer on first single “Get Lucky,” interviewed in Rolling Stone. (5/1a)
