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

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.

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

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.

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