I've seen a study in the last year that digital sound actually induces stress in the listener.
Probably the deepest use of music and of art is to create conscience.
At different times in my life I met God from a different point of view.
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.
I love loud music. I listen loud, and that's part of how I've learned how to do this. Record softly and play back loud and a whole other thing happens.
