You don't have to act as if you know what you're doing

The dominant theory coming out of Hollywood is that peoples' attention spans are getting shorter and shorter and they need more stimulation.

People do dismiss ambient music, don't they? They call it 'easy listening,' as if to suggest that it should be hard to listen to.

I think, if you spend a day or - as many people do - a life working only with that aspect of your being, the cerebrum connected to a finger, I feel that the rest of you atrophies, essentially.

The most important thing in a piece of music is to seduce people to the point where they start searching.

I think it's a myth that American public or any other public is so stupid that they need to be constantly pricked.

It's not the destination that matters. It's the change of scene.
