I never feel that my music is sparse or minimalist; the way fat people never really think they're fat. I certainly don't consider myself minimalist at all.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Minimalism now is a reaction to what came before. It's absolutely of its time. Music moved into the set theory thing, and moved out of it.
Post-minimalism implies music that's genre-less. Minimalism was very important because it came at a time when contemporary music had become so complex, so experimental and detached that people turned away from it. Minimalism broke that trend and brought music back to the people.
As for minimalism, I don't care, don't care, don't care to repeat myself, repeat myself.
Through Kurt I saw the beauty of minimalism and the importance of music that's stripped down.
Music is the medium that has taken me around the world, and I would be lying if I said I could live without music.
Music is one of those things that make us feel a little less alone in the world.
I have sometimes been told that my music is 'difficult' for the listener.
What's completely insane to me is that people would consider music that's simple to be dumbed-down. Couldn't simplicity be a deliberate, smart choice?
Probably the No. 1 most important thing in my music is not to sound like anyone else. It is hard in this day and age.
I don't feel comfortable making empty music.
