I found it on a fan site about the group Kraan: 
http://www.spacelook.de/kraan/kraan.htm

The complete Quote is:
Musik ist der Rauch, der entsteht, wenn ein Musiker sich verbrennt. Je 
nachdem, aus welchem Holz er geschnitzt ist, bleibt entsprechend viel 
Asche übrig.

The second part translate to: dependend on the wood he is made of, more 
or less ashes will remain.

The word "Asche" could also be understood as synonym for money... Don't 
know if the quote was made with this double meaning in mind or not.

If you want to prove the authenticity, I'd ask Klaus Unland, the guy who 
runs the site.

Stefan
