I think good art happens on that edge between comfortable and in a lot of pain, you know what I mean?

I mean, I think about it, but I don't design my record to get a certain public response.

I don't always trust my own instincts. It would be nice if someone else would tell me what I should do with my life!

Isn't this the best part of breakin' up? Finding someone else you can't get enough of. Someone who wants to be with you, too.

Picture being forced to talk endlessly about your feelings and listen and care when what you needed was just to get something done.

Composing gives me a chance to work in multiple dimensions and helps me pare down my melodies into what is essential. Learning new skills has always energized me and scoring has opened up a world of sonic possibilities.

I don't like being approached by people who look at me too intensely, who needed something from me that I didn't have. I don't represent anything.
