You can't live life being afraid, because fear censors ambition.

About 20 years ago, I had a dream in which somebody sang one of the most beautiful melodies I'd ever heard, and gave it to me, and warned me not to forget it. Of course, I did forget it by the time I had got out of bed. Now as precaution, my phone is overloaded with half sung melodies.

I think the two sides to me are the same as two sides to anybody. In relation to the link between doing the label and being a DJ, it goes back to the thing of necessity. It's the only way I feel I can do something creative that's going to satisfy me.

Sometimes something has a value, it has an instant quality to it, and that's all it needs to be.

Obviously like many of us, I love music, and I hate music sometimes.

I don't know if this is a good thing to say, but the musical obsession has almost shifted to a creative obsession now.

I think I just want to make and be part of great records, because of what it brings to other people, what it gives back, is so incredible.
