I feel safe and comfortable to do that once I know that the song structure around the bass part is very interesting and it satisfies me in a compositional sense.

That is what intrigues me; songwriting and song structure and expression.

With me, satisfaction is always very fleeting with our work. I always get a little restless with it.

I feel a little uncomfortable about endorsements.

First of all, when you live in a country like Canada, it's quite different from America in the sense that it's very tied to traditions that were born in Britain.

I'm a big believer of daylight in the studio.

Sometimes it's nice to have a song that can be taken more then one way, so it can be interpreted differently.
