She's very tolerant of this interviewer
She's so graceful in an un graceful interview.
God she is amazing
I wonder how she would react to the 'ipod' statement today. I LOVE Kim Deal, but there is something about Kelley. She is so lovely. I can always tell when they are standing together which one is Kelley. She has just got this way about her. What a babe.
Funny Kelley Deal, please be my friend! :D
MacFIERCEson is one badass driver and this woman is too cool for words.
omg i wish kelley was my aunt
Okay, I admit expressing and evoking emotion becomes progressively more difficult to convey the less acoustically organic a song is, and the important factor about music that need understanding is this. It is human expression that drives the process and outcome of a musical creation not the choice of artistic medium, genre, recording technology,popular culture or even a graduate degree in musical theory. In the words of T.S. Eliot, "You are the music while the music lasts."
Make no mistake, I am not trying to criticize Kelley for her intense devotion to analog recording. In fact, I idolize the Deal Sisters solo and collaborative projects like baby teens idolize the image of Justin Beiber. Instead of a wall of posters and concert merchandise I have a catalog of original songs inspired by Kelley and Kim's music. My issue is with the fascist nature of tradition that defines the culture of pop music and (I believe) is at the crux of popular musicians resistance to radically experiment with their creative process. In short, genre and style have nothing to do with making music and everything to do marketing music.
The point is that if Kelley (and her equally analog loving sis for that matter) were open to exploring the wild, unchartered musical frontier conceived by digital technology, the resulting music would certainly have different qualities of sound but I am confident it would still kick ass. Whether it be acoustically organized, digitally synthesized, or tape a' la magnetized, it all comes down to this. The true musical instrument is not the object which produces sound. The musical instrument is the mind, emotions, ideas and experiences conveyed through the rhythmic patterns of sound emitting objects. Sweet, sweet music, therefore, depends not upon arbitrary characteristics of sound production but upon the quality of human expression communicated through the process of sound production. There is music without analog or digital. There is no music without the hand or ear of humanity to define it.
REAL !! also not a lot of people have analog $$ either and especially for people starting out the only cheap way to get that "all wave" vibe is like hoping a 4 track recorder still works lol
it is kinda fun hearing former analog purists like jack white start to do some crazy stuff in pro tools (his zane lowe interview from last year was so sick)
good impression of using pro tools haha. But really? Asking Kelley questions about pixies? okay..
who is ur favorite German?
Nice lady
That laugh is too much and it's kind of funny, staring at an old age home and falling for the lead guitarist. That ain't me. No need to alert security, anyway. Where is the University of Dayton?
Cd sounds better
than what?...a choir? a trapped door mouse?
Than downloads. When something gets uploaded to youtube or spotify it loses some quality. CD is at the maximum quality and it sounds better, especially if you use headphones. I wish I had everything as a FLAC which is the same as CD quality but much smaller. Vinyl is best of all but they wear out which sucks.
The interviewer isn’t very good. Kelley tried her best to be polite and kept the coversation fun. It is almost like David Bowie interview when he had to face unpleasant host.
