Quote

It's wonderful when music is intellectually stimulating. But ultimately it has to be a visceral experience.

I think the feelings in my music were suggested to me before I even had the ability to play music.

I wasn't making music consciously when I was younger. I was a musician, but that has its own stigmas. Anywhere on the planet, it's one of the more undervalued positions.

Whenever I make music, it reflects where I'm at mentally.

New Age music does something wonderful to the nervous system.

Classical music requires an immense amount of concentration, and I don't know if I would've been that committed to that particular life.

Music bypasses the brain and goes straight to the heart. I wish my life had more of it.

When I was younger, I had a much better connection between words and music. Somewhere along the way, I had kind of an aspiration to disconnect them, to just kind of go into a totally musical world.
