You are free. Close your eyes. Open your mind. Let this music in, and you will see that this is true

I just feel like the songs that come out are the songs that come.

What really helps me is being able to record my albums at home - I have more fun experimenting that way, as opposed to working with an engineer, in which case I have to deal with the humiliation of doing take after take, and that can get frustrating.

I write lyrics. I play the guitar. If the rest of the band had to do my schedule, they would be dead

Maybe what I do isn't going to be acknowledged by people, but that's me. It's my nature to do things that are weirder and less understood and that was a path I needed to take

It means basically I'm using the synthesizer more to change the sounds of other things rather than to use it as the source of the sound.

I write songs because I have to write them, and if I didn't I'd be doing some other kind of music that didn't require a song.
