I sometimes fall into the trap of doing what I think I should be doing rather than what I want to be doing.

Part of me is probably more conservative than people realise. I like my old string quartets, I don't like music that's trippy for trippy's sake.

Being a musician is very easy. My house is full of musical instruments. There's a lot of music, always.

People are always asking me about eskimos, but there are no eskimos in Iceland.

Over the last 10 years, there have been so many incredible albums created in bedrooms by people who never would've gotten an album deal.

For a person as obsessed with music as I am, I always hear a song in the back of my head, all the time, and that usually is my own tune. I've done that all my life.

I have to re-create the universe every morning when I wake up, and kill it in the evening.
