I saw Grizzly Man; I know what can happen.

As soon as we get out of our urban shell, we're still at the mercy of nature as individuals.

I feel like we as human beings are trampling all over the natural world, but at the same time, we are totally in its power.

I feel as though I can get an end result that works for me, but as far as recording techniques, I don't feel that confident in my abilities.

I find when I'm touring or when I'm traveling, I just enter this other world kind of. It's much easier for me to be creative and be unselfconscious about creating when I'm home.

I have totally like an urbanite relationship to nature. I mean I'm not someone who hikes.

I feel like these sounds are the ultimate kind of free sounds, the ultimate public domain sounds. And I feel like people put them in completely different contexts, and they mean something different to everybody.
