I don't really call myself a composer.
I consider myself a composer.
I'm a composer, man.
The real composer thinks about his work the whole time; he is not always conscious of this, but he is aware of it later when he suddenly knows what he will do.

It's understanding the intention of a composer that allows a producer and an arranger to make those moments speak.
I think a composer is always interested in his last work.
I'm still getting used to being called a composer. A poseur, maybe.
As a composer, I know that all sorts of sounds I hear are making their way into my brain and soul and later sneak into my music.
A composer knows that music is written by human beings for human beings and that music is a continuation of life, not something separated from it.
