When I'm making my music, I'm writing it, I'm producing it, I'm playing all the instruments, I'm performing. It's my own world where I do what I feel, and nobody tells me anything.

I wasn't the kind of person that liked waiting for autographs or following them, I just liked to go to the shows, study their records, driving many, many hours to different states to go to concerts.

If you heard my records and no one told you, I don't think you'd know whether it's a band or one guy.

Tape machines are effects boxes as well because each tape machine has its own sound. You can over-load a tape machine or you can bump it a certain way so it compresses or makes a sound, tape saturation.

My dream is to become a farmer. Just a Bohemian guy pulling up his own sweet potatoes for dinner.

When I was a kid and I bought a record, I ripped that thing open, I wanted to know who was playing what, what studio it was cut at, who was the string arranger, who was the engineer.

I'm a very open and loving person. My whole thing has been "let love rule" since my first album. I'm about unity and peace and God.
