James murphy is the kind of person who know a bit about many vague connection subjects, music, popular music, do fashion, pharmaceutical, electronic, mixed martial arts. But the thing is to understand the unifying concept of cool. He spent most of his life limited think - cool, this is his band Soundsystem anatomy and reengineering LCD almost every song they produce. In may this year, LCD will release their third (last album), this is happening. What seems to be the "incident" is already reached the peak of the role murphy (mainly is real), he now realized such cool intimate become an almost academic discussion. He thought it was a feeling than he found it.
"I was 10 years ago more cool," murphy said, in a restaurant near his home in brooklyn around the purchase of North America Virginia utopia. He immediately explanation is in LCD distinguishing between now and death of early from above, the record label he helped establish in 2001 two like-minded partner. "New York like art stars. When I was in DFA, we considered the crazy people put these drugs parties and some fashion show. It's cool. Now I'm just a guy in a band. I think happened I spent my whole life go to want to cool, but eventually came to admit cool mechanism works. So this is not I don't want to cool, it's more like I came to realize that don't exist cool if I ever."
People always mention how Murphy doesn't look like a conventional pop star, but he doesn't look like a conventional 40-year-old adult; he's 6ft 1in with a XXL torso, and his bangs protrude forward like the shelf of a cliff. His hands are enormous and he (somehow) always seems to have exactly two days' growth on his jowls. He wears a designer Yves Saint Laurent T-shirt to our interview, and he's still wearing it when he performs in front of 1,400 dance-punk nerds 12 hours later. Much like his lyrics, Murphy's conversation style toggles between low and high culture. He brings up arcane philosophies, undercuts his own ideas through self-deprecation, and then tries to reconcile the middle ground between them. Even when he talks about other people, it sounds like self-analysis.
