Things go wrong when the people who control that world stop listening to their own instincts and start catering to their fan base.

I got asked to remix a lot of movie themes, like Mission Impossible, which other people ended up doing quite well. But it was just never my thing.

My main thing is constantly looking forward and trying to make music that I couldn't have made at any other time.

In certain cases I don't want to sell tracks individually; I want to only sell the whole album. With simple things like that I just don't get any response [from iTunes]. I don't want to kill iTunes - I just want to offer my own retail experience in my own tiny corner of the Internet.

Any good album title has multiple meanings, and I like choosing titles where I find myself repeating it, almost like a mantra.

I realized that people don't quite understand what I do when I was the new kid on the block and a lot of Hollywood was offering me fairly cheesy projects.
