It's not always possible to play a song exactly as it is on the album. That's also something that I really don't want to do because I like to have versions that also adapt to the band, so that is always a big challenge to see how we can transform those songs so it feels natural.

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.

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.

If the melodies are strong, it's much easier to see which way I can take them sound-wise.

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.

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

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