The idea of a visual icon that gives you a sense of information very quickly and that you can easily just say "That's what the style is."
DJ SpookyThe easiest thing I can say is simple, but paradoxical in this era of total sampling: Be original.
DJ SpookyOn one hand you have a string quartet, which is not a symphony. On the other hand is you have me sampling them and making it sound like there is many more people playing, so the whole notion of, kind of, sampling applied to classical music is very intriguing to me because composers throughout history have borrowed motifs and quotes from one another.
DJ SpookyI wanted to do is kind of invoke that and then dive into that kind of repetition as a DJ thing because DJing you hear beats, like "boom, boom, boom, bap, bap." You know hip hop, house, techno. So how do you translate between those electronic motifs and the motifs of the landscape itself? That is what I wanted to go for.
