However now we can create a sound that can truly startle someone and in terms of sound effects I think the environment that we are in now has improved dramatically.

It is quite annoying that we have to change the sound we invented just to avoid sounding like people who simply copy us, but... it is flattering and of course challenging.

I think New Order have got their own sound. But what we like to do is experiment, using dance music and other things.

I don't think anyone has exhausted the range of sound possible in a conventional rock band, but people do become slaves to their own easiest techniques.

The combination of experience and experimentation will ultimately yield a personal sound.

Everybody's just emulated us and now everybody just kinda takes our sound as their foundations.

I never presumed that a technique of composition or an idea was so special that just using it would guarantee the quality of the music.

I got tired of different drum sounds so you buy different effects for more manipulation.

I don't think you can contrive any sound.
