I don't think about the styles. I write whatever comes out and I use whatever kind of instrumentation works for those songs.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Writing songs is really about writing. It's not about necessarily focusing on one particular style or making it one particular thing.
I just go with the flow, so any style can be in my music - that makes it exciting.
I mix up all styles on my albums because that is what music is about now.
My style kinda comes from the music I listen to.
I feel pretty comfortable in a lot of different musical styles. I like rhythm, and I like melody and so forth.
When creating an album, one of the first things you have to think about is what you want your production style to be.
I don't think my music's as traditional as people make it out.
I like to think of my style as pretty versatile. And I'd like whatever I record to reflect that to be mostly genre - to be just something that people want to listen on to see what I'm going to come up with next. That's the kind of music I'm into.
The style depends on the subject.
I've always written songs that were confessional, acoustic, wordy - my writing style matches my personality. The music always has to match the mouth it comes out of.
