The more I come to understand music, the more I feel like a numbskull because there is always more to learn.

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 got fed up with being in bands. I spent a couple of years touring the country in a smoked filled band, doing lots of drugs and being really unhealthy.

If you want to survive in the film industry, it's not about fighting for your visions because that's a given. It's thinking about how much is your vision going to cost, and then, what are the consequences, because you may have $100 million, but the reality is that $100 million needs to make $500 million to be a success.

I'm kind of conservative. I like to build on what I've done in the past and try something new.

Pop music is a fashion, and fashions come and go. The public retires you as their tastes change.

I like challenges and I definitely would like to be more of a chameleon.
