I still feel like I have a lot to learn in the realm of sound experimentation, and I think I would like things to get noisier and weirder and more distressed and more aggressive, but I don't know if that's something that would be suitable for public consumption.

Tones sound, and roar and storm about me until I have set them down in notes.

My favorite sounds are the high, spacey ones that are very ambient.

Most of my songs start out as being very aggressive and guitar-driven.

There are methods to creating a mayhem that sounds different from your usual mayhem. Because mayhem and a heavy drum backbeat end up sounding like Green Day or something. But if you put a different beat within it to create some air and lightness, the chaos comes through better.

The music that I'm known for is quiet and gentle, although when I was growing up and as a teenager, I was playing the opposite - I was screaming and playing bass and those loud electric guitars.

I don't just do power ballads. I have a lot of up-tempo stuff, too - like 'Can't Fight the Moonlight.'

In all the music that deals with experimental repetition, drum and bass, dub, various kinds of house music, there's always been a quality of atmosphere and ambience.

The sets on 'Defiance' are incredible. I've never really seen a set like this, where the world is so built around us. There's not too much left for us to have to imagine.

My sound is very smooth. Not to be to cliche, but really sensual and sultry.
