We stuck the record head so it kept on recording over and over on top of itself and played keyboard notes into it to create this ghost repetition melody.

We are kind of one step removed, not really in the center of things.

In OK Computer, the guitar was already moving towards a tone generator as well as a riff generator.

I've seen the Mass For The End Of Time in concert but my brother's the more musical one really.

It's a full on job just looking for human social responsibility.

One of the books we read a few years ago that had a big effect on us was Repeated Takes by Michael Chanan.

The thing about rock is that people are not just interested in bands because of where they want to go. It's where they want to escape from that matters.

I trained as a classical guitarist but that was it.

With Dollars And Cents on the album, we had it as a band jam and I sometimes spend evenings playing with records over the top of things we were working on to see what works.

I mean, I'm in a band, we're reasonably successful, I've got a very nice suit - I'm not even a bad person- so why can't I get a shag?

The trick with computers I think, is to approach old and new things with the same reverence as you would like your favourite chair and not be seduced by the constant innovation otherwise you never do anything.

Jonny doesn't want to do TV interviews because he thinks that he comes across as an idiot.

Limits are very important.

We try to treat everywhere we play differently and that's really important.

If you're working on a computer and you're editing bass, it looks like a warm curvy, sort of feminine object.

You should approach a sequencer like you would a Dobro guitar.

I don't listen to much modern composition.

People need to focus on bigger issues instead of whether George Bush is an idiot or not.

I don't think anything's underground anymore. And I think that's a good thing. Everything is up for grabs.

There's no point apologizing about where you come from.

I'm going to have classical piano lessons next.

With our website we didn't want people to come to our site and find out about Radiohead. We wanted them to come to our site and find out about what Radiohead are finding out about.

For me that's what's fascinating about the internet, that aggregate thing.

Our site should be like Paddington Station with a much better version of WH Smith's in it.

In Kid A and Amnesiac, the guitar becomes one more texture, difficult to separate from other textures.

When we rehearse, we're always trying to aim for something else. But we never quite succeed in getting there.

Coltrane would do what you'd get a Roland Pro Tools module to do but with a group of jazz musicians.

Motion Picture Soundtrack on Kid A was another Coltrane inspiration.

Bill Withers and Curtis Mayfield, those are the people who informed me in playing the bass.

We stuck the record head so it kept on recording over and over on top of itself and played keyboard notes into it to create this ghost repetition melody.

The guitar is a much more efficient machine than a computer. More responsive.

My page is junk, because I hate putting anything to do with me on the site, it just feels wrong.

Phil is a real drummer's drummer.

Warp was important to Thom about two years ago when he was looking for different sounds.

You should approach technological things in a nostalgic way.

Essentially my contribution was to introduce repetition into Western music as the main ingredient without any melody over it, without anything just repeated patterns, musical patterns.

Out of doing all that experimentation with sound I decided I wanted to do it with live musicians. To take repetition, take music fragments and make it live. Musicians would be able to play it and create this kind of abstract fabric of sound.

The bastard form of mass culture is humiliated repetition... always new books, new programs, new films, news items, but always the same meaning.

If you re-read your work, you can find on re-reading a great deal of repetition can be avoided by re-reading and editing.

A baseball swing is a very finely tuned instrument. It is repetition, and more repetition, then a little more after that.

But the development of human society does not go straight forward; and the epic process will therefore be a recurring process, the series a recurring series - though not in exact repetition.

Repetition makes reputation and reputation makes customers.

Filming is repetition and many takes.

Theater is dangerously open to repetition. It's exciting when you hit on a new way.

I believe that these devices like repetition and rhyme are not artificial, that they're not imposed, somehow, on the language.

The history of man is the history of crimes, and history can repeat. So information is a defence. Through this we can build, we must build, a defence against repetition.

But better die than live mechanically a life that is a repetition of repetitions.

Any real record person knows that the number one most powerful marketing tool when it comes to music is repetition.

It is not the simple statement of facts that ushers in freedom; it is the constant repetition of them that has this liberating effect. Tolerance is the result not of enlightenment, but of boredom.
