It pulled me like a magnet, jazz did, because it was a way that I could express myself.

Globalization means we have to re-examine some of our ideas, and look at ideas from other countries, from other cultures, and open ourselves to them. And that's not comfortable for the average person.

Technology has developed to a whole other level and theres the scientist part of me that loves that stuff.

Jazz translates the moment into a sense of inspiration for not only the musicians but for the listeners.

I learned the importance of being nonjudgmental, taking what happens and trying to make it work.That's something you should apply to life.

Miles' sessions were not typical of anybody else's sessions. They were totally unique.

It's part of my nature. I get excited when trying out new stuff, whether it be an idea or equipment. It stimulates my juices.
