It's the irrational things that interest me.

I didn't have a record player.

I'm not an architectural composer.

I always write the pieces I want to write.

One thing I've tried to do in writing music is take on very basic things, very archetypal things.

There are rhythmic ideas which sometimes only work up to a point. In writing there are moments when it just comes off the page, it's not just a collection of notes.

You either are or you're not.
