I really feel instrumental music can speak - can contain tremendous amounts of information - but it's speaking to your subconscious.

It's crucial that people are on the right measure at the right time.

I could create music that sounded as strange as any electronic music, because you see, my opinion about electronic music is that the real composer is the guy who invented the instrument. Pressing buttons is not composing. Composing is about creating something.

I liked rock music going back to the '60s, but I never ever had any desire to be a rock musician and when I started doing a band it was experimental music.

I'm never happy with anything.

I'm just not arbitrarily choosing to have five guitars play one type of thing. In that way there's a definite similarity between a symphony orchestra and the 100 guitar symphony.

Music is about imagination. It's about thought. It's about creating something from nothing.
