I'd say that it's important for music to be there that gives you a challenge, that rearranges things in your head.

I have a rough idea when I walk into a studio though.

One of those things that I find hard to dispose of is my attitude to album sequencing, the layout of the pieces.

Times of my life, brief periods without music, have completely felt dangerously over the edge.

I’ve started thinking about pure electronic music again. Something very melodic, very aggressive.

Just the type of music that was around at the same time as I was writing. Some of it was wicked, definitely. But there was just one direction which I thought could be pushed that no one was pushing.

I make music to generate atmospheres, not to complement already existing ones.
