I'm continuing to produce and will start a new record soon, as well.

I don't think that much anymore in terms of 'write a record, record a record, tour a record,' because in my own mind, things have changed, in that I'm just an ongoing artist. I'm not quite sure what the next project needs to be until it presents himself, and then I know. I just follow dutifully while I'm being led.

We're resolving our differences and we're looking forward to putting out a record next year.

I get very deep into the writing and recording process.

People are really set in their ways in how they produce records, and I was at least open enough to where I knew I wanted to do something totally different.

Every single day, I write something new and record it.

I pretty much just focus on making the records - unless I'm self-releasing them; then I do my own thing. But at some point, you have to stop worrying about chains of distribution, or it takes out of your time to write.

You're starting to see new record companies and business models taking shape, but it takes time.

A lot of times when you're making a record, you put your head down and charge forward until you're done. You just hope that the ideas hold up, because you're kind of lost in your own storm.

Sometimes you make a record that is what you want to hear. I've made a couple of those, idealized creations of what I wanted to hear. Then there are records that are what you feel.
