I've got a bunch of circuit-bent boxes and things that are controlled by my Mac through a big breakout box. I want to create this total environment where I can bring all this gear to the show but maybe just use one or two elements, if that's what's called for.

Unfortunately I've gotten more resistance in the last year than I ever have.

I love collecting; my joy is finding private press American or European home studio electronic music from the 60s and 70s.

I'm not a perfectionist by a long shot, but self-doubt is a large part of my creative process.

I became this guy that does drum programming, and I don't want to be that guy anymore. I don't want to sit in front of my computer for 18 hours programming 16 bars of music.

I think Pro Tools is pretty analogous to how people composed music on tape back in the 70s, taking little fragments of things and saying, 'How can we organize these in a sensible way'?

I don't want to rewrite history.
