I really had to think and learn about musical intervals.

You can't give up something you really believe in for financial reasons. If you die by the roadside - so be it. But at least you know you've tried. Ten minutes in the music scene was the equal of one hundred years outside of it.

Look, Salvador Dali did not paint because he needed the money. No conversation about materialism and music makes sense. You make music and that's that, it doesn't matter why.

If I didn't do what I do, I wouldn't be as young as I am.

Lately, I'm spending more and more time working with non-rock musicians and leaving the mainstream - almost dissolving into another world, musically.

I'm not a flowerchild or anything like that... whatever it was.

I owe everything to the musicians I work with.
