If part of the purpose of making an album is to get some radio play, then you might as well think about that. But that's not really how we picked the songs.

An album is a thing you take time out and go work on.

Designers and musicians are primed to keep thinking forward. Once an album or collection launches, you can only think about doing the next one.

I can see that if this was an album done 10 or 15 years ago we could see we were moving on to some place else.

I've always dreamed of having an album. The problem is that it's just very difficult to make an album nowadays because through technology, music shifts so fast, especially electronic music. Once you make five songs, the first one you did is already old and you wished you would have put it out right away. So that's kind of the difficult part.

I realized if I'm not really making an album, I don't have to be concerned about things like stylistic consistency, pacing, a coherent mood. All that stuff goes out the window.

I kinda like the idea of having an album that's all me.

We toyed with the idea of making it a double album, but I think that would only have confused everybody even more, so we decided to stick with the songs we picked.

A whole album to one writer - now that would be really interesting.
