I know so few people who actually give music their undivided attention, so I've been trying to just park myself on the couch between the speakers and listen.

There's nothing worse than a director that keeps changing their mind. Because, unlike the directors I work with, I'm not decisive at all.

I don't want to be typecast as the 'ambient guy' or someone who only does electronic scores. I think most of the work that comes my way is because people feel they know me musically.

I'm kind of an antisocial person. I realised when I was playing in bands that I wasn't that comfortable being on-stage, and I preferred to be behind-the-scenes. I like the seclusion of composing.

I've never tried to work chronologically. I don't think I have the discipline to do that.

I like directors that give their composer a juicy role in their films. Some films have a small, minor role for music, some have a larger role.

Composers are in some ways the last frontier of musician that gets a paycheck for their musical services.
