I have actually found myself buying up more and more old analogue gear. I have this strange obsession with old drum machines.

Personally I find the democratic chaos of the Internet fascinating, and for the most part really benign.

Let peace and beauty reign.

People love their favorite records. And I aspire to make a record someone might be able to love in that way.

When I saw music as a means to an end - more fame, more money, dating celebrities - that's when things have gone terribly wrong. Now my life is focused on just trying to keep making music. Because when it's really good, it's just the most remarkable feeling on the planet.

What fascinates me about addiction and obsessive behavior is that people would choose an altered state of consciousness that's toxic and ostensibly destroys most aspects of your normal life, because for a brief moment you feel okay.

I don't have children, but I imagine if parents are really pushed on the subject, they probably have favorite children.
