There are very few people I can call real, close friends. They're very, very precious to me.

The only term I won't accept is "genius."

I don't like to tell people what format they can get things in, or say, "I'm only going to release this on vinyl and nothing else. You have to come to my world." I don't like to say that to people either. But, I do think there's a loss of romance.

I deal in emotions. It's the harmonic side that's important. That's the side I expected to be much further along on than I am now. That just means to say that I've got to keep at it.

There's so many different styles and facets of the 360-degree musical sphere to listen to. From tribal to classical music, it's all there. If the bottom was to sag out of that, for God's sake, help us all.

I'm still searching for an angel with a broken wing. It's not very easy to find them these days.

A lot of people can't be on their own. They get frightened. Isolation doesn't bother me at all. It gives me a sense of security.
