In Britain, it's good for me to be anonymous, because they just think it's a nobody. "Who is this guy?"

If it takes you three years to set up a studio, and you've made one track with that setup, then the logical thing to do is not change anything and just do another one using the same set of sounds.

The holy grail for a music fan, I think, is to hear music from another planet, which has not been influenced by us whatsoever.

I've always got to change something. All the tracks I've done in the last five years were made in like six different studios. It gets a bit complicated.

Can't really despise people you don't know.

When I look at commercial studios, I think, "Oh, they're all so nice and tidy," but it's because they don't actually write music in them.

I actually prefer it if I don't know what I'm supposed to do. If you've got an equal temperament piano keyboard, then you know what you're going to get if you play certain chords. But I actually like it if you don't know where the notes are, because then you do it intuitively. You're working out a new language, basically. New rules.
