I think that the creative process, especially in the beginning of making an album, I'm feeling very fragile, so to speak, because you are trying out so many different ideas, and if you are listening to it from the outside, it would sound horrible!

I like to surprise the listener a little bit and also surprise myself when I write the music.

If I was writing a song one night, I would leave the studio and come back the next day, and if I could remember the same melody on the same song, it was definitely something worth working more on. If I couldn't remember it, maybe there was a purpose about that.

Banging techno grooves from the one and only Ben Sims. Around the time of this was written he had that tribal/funky techno sound that rocked the dancefloor. He was a favorite then and still is now.

There are some ideas that I know I have to try out before I find the right sound, before I find the right melody.

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

Because I'm in a modern studio, there are so many possibilities - you can do so much. So it's sometimes a little bit confusing for me to actually see which way should I choose.
