Daniel Lanois’ Advice to the Young
“Should one be so lucky to find something they are good at, then pursue it with full passion, man.” Spot-on advice from one of the world’s most sought-after producers Daniel Lanois, who forwards wisdom from the legendary Brian Eno.
To be “a master of a few things” seems to be a key element in Daniel Lanois’ musical landscape. When he worked with Brian Eno in the 1980s they sought to become experts at a few specific things, and their field of expertise soon came to be the boxes in which they created their characteristic ambient soundscapes. This strong and early sense of direction is what he considers the foundation for his success as one of the greatest music producers of our time: “I find people wait too long to get into things.”
Daniel Lanois (b. 1951) is a legendary Canadian music producer, guitarist, vocalist and songwriter. He has received three Grammy Awards for Album of the Year as well as several nominations. Among the albums he has produced are U2’s ‘The Joshua Tree’, Bob Dylan’s ‘Time Out of Mind’ and Peter Gabriel’s ‘So’. As a musician he has invented the legendary ‘ambient records’ such as ‘The Plateaux of Mirror’, ‘Apollo’, ‘On Land’ and ‘The Pearl’ in collaboration with Brian Eno.
Daniel Lanois was interviewed by Kasper Bech Dyg at Musikhuset Posten in Odense, Denmark in April 2015.

Warpaint Reveal How To Keep Your Friendship Intact While Being A Band
How have your friendships changed over the course of the last 12 years?
I think it changes. It goes in phases. We all started out as friends. Stella came into the band and we didn’t really know her super well. We weren’t really friends with her beforehand. She was an acquaintance, we had met her a few times. Emily and Theresa grew up together, they’ve been best friends since they were eleven. I met them after and instantly fell in love with them. Over the years, collaborating, working on relationships in general can be super challenging. I think creative relationships, with others or just yourself, and dealing with the internal dialogue that comes with being an artist is pretty complicated. You might take things a little more personally, it’s not just a work relationship, it’s also a friendship. There are two sides to that. It can work against us, but because we’re friends we want to talk through it and work it out. Where you might just brush past it alone, we have to figure out how to communicate about it. No one is okay with not feeling close. It’s been great for us now, it’s really on point.
We do get in arguments, we do get in fights, there might be a bit of yelling, but at least it’s over.I think we’ve gotten a lot better about not holding things in. We want to be good to one another, and love each other. We want our jobs to be fun.
You should enjoy your life, you should enjoy your job and the people you’re surrounded by. You also have to take care of yourself and make sure that you’re feeling happy, and you’re having compassion for yourself.

Film Director John Waters On How Great It Is To Be A Film Director
It’s so easy to make a movie now, you just get your cell phone. When I did it, you had to go rent a heavy, 16mm camera that they used to make the movies. But that’s all right, it all works out. The good ones come out. It’s just harder. You’ve got more competition. Everybody wants to be a film director. If it was easy, every human in the United States would be a film director. You get paid well, you get to boss people around, you get to see people naked. Why wouldn’t you be a film director? – John Waters
