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

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

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.

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.

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.

I really like to be alone. It's nearly like being naked in the studio, and if someone were to walk in, that wouldn't feel good.
