I always liked to make something creative.

Half the stuff I've written was written when I was half asleep watching the David Letterman show when some boring actress was on talking about herself. I would just mute the TV, look over to the computer and start plugging in notes. Then the next morning you go "Wow, I like this". I'd almost forget what I did, and then it would inspire me to go on and do the next thing. That's what I do. Just kind of follow my own little thing.

When I was in eighth grade said sit in at a graduation party and I played 'Boys' by The Beatles and fifty people were standing around with their mouths open. And you kind of get the hint, well maybe I should do this because I'm not very good at sports, I'm not that popular, I'm not very smart, and I'm not very good looking, but when I played the drums, everybody liked it.

You don't know where you're going.

You just write one word and that tells you what the next word is going to be.

I don't know where I'm going, and I don't care where I'm going. As long as I can just do it.

I have great samples of my drums and I try to program them pretty much how I want to play them, try and make it feel natural even though it's programmed.
