With modern recording techniques, and living in the Pro Tools era, the process gets really drawn-out, and it can become painstaking.

I would love to do an electronic record. There's just so much to see and do and try. And life goes by.

Just out of curiosity, I wonder what makes music or culture or taste go in certain directions. Who knows what the forces are behind it.

Whatever you do has to be commercial and it can't be too distracting - it has to be background music, basically.

Especially in music, you wonder, Okay, should I still be doing this? Like, are you overstaying your welcome at the party? But I don't know.

Sometimes, reissues can be revelatory, or put the original record in a different light, but those are rare.

When you work with somebody for a long period of time, you develop a shorthand with everything.
