You need to believe in something that's bigger than yourself. I think that's what everybody wants to believe in that.

If you can make art with sound, can't you make music with objects?

I have about two or three people, we don't have an office, we don't even have a dedicated phone line. We do it out of our own homes, and we make it work.

Great musicians accept everything that they hear and find something good. They take what they like and they throw away what they don't like

That was my challenge as a composer. Like with anything, to keep yourself interested in doing what you do, you set yourself challenges. So I said, Okay, I'll try to write a hundred tunes in a year.

I'm constantly tortured, and that's why I say happiness is irrelevant. Happiness is for children and yuppies.

And I try to be as diplomatic as I can, but it always ends up being a psychodrama up there on stage.
