The internet has surrounded television and turned television into an art form.

Everything around a writer, or musician in the record business, probably everything in all the United States or in all of western civilization, is about competition.

I got out of high school, bought a recording studio and started operating it as an engineer and a producer.

I'm not stupid enough to want to be famous. But I would like to be able to earn a living playing music.

My original idea was to produce and not make records myself.

Still, records are documents of a period of time. Most records are documents of two or three years, and I just approached it as a record I was doing over a 20-year period of time.

Risk is what separates the artist from the artisan.
