I'm a real big electronic music nut; when I was young I listened to musique concrète, German music from Cologne in the early 50s, all kinds of stuff.

I build the individual modules to meet a demand. If I need the music to change direction, I want to have the tools to be able to do that.

I rarely assess live shows after I play them.

I think if people have more of an understanding of what I'm doing, then they'll appreciate it and get into it more.

I use a laptop more as a tool, as sort of the central artery. Everything goes through the digital audio card of my computer, but if I had my druthers I'd do everything in dedicated hardware.

I don't want to rewrite history.

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