I must admit I'm a total control freak. That is the way that it works best for me.

It's very easy to overproduce stuff and you can forget those first spontaneous ideas are often the best ideas.

It's pretty much the songs I write that dictate what vibe it should be and what singers it should be.

For every album, I really try to make an album that you hopefully will listen to from the first track to the last track. I personally really like if there's a - maybe not a story, but there's a natural flow.

Sometimes, I actually end up doing three or four different versions of one song, and sometimes, those versions can be done very differently. They can be very laid back, downtempo, or sometimes the same song can be quite uptempo. But it is always the same melody and chord progressions.

I really love the fact that instrumental music can have you do your own inner-movies or your own visuals to the sound. There's not lyrics dictating what you should feel.
