You may be surprised to know that growing up, I wanted to be a writer of children's books.

When I start working on an idea, I immediately record without judging it.

A lot of my ideas come from McNally Jackson bookstore. One of my favorite things to do is just go there and look through architecture books and interior design books. Something about the aesthetics of space and beautiful images works with my brain.

We should not let negative influences get to us.

For now ACID Kreationz has only one body and that's me. I have intentions of hiring persons when I am through with university. For now it is only me but off and on I contract sound producers and other persons when the need arises.

I was also always interested in the aesthetic realm - architecture and that kind of stuff - but music was my first love.

World music evokes a feeling. You don't have to think about the scene that it comes from.
