I got tired of different drum sounds so you buy different effects for more manipulation.
I was playing in other rock bands. Any of those bands didn't last long.
Mars is really different, into art. Lydia Lunch is more energy. James Chance is more commercial in a different way, in funk and jazz. They were all doing original things, trying to create their own sound and music. I think they're all great.
I really didn't intend to be a musician when I left Japan.
I've done some music for films and I really enjoy doing it.
The most important thing is that it's much more fun to play in a band than to be in an audience in a club. That's the main thing I think, that you can do it.
