I don't compose, actually. I just record. I'm the opposite of a composer in my way of working. I'm more instinctive.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I don't really call myself a composer.
I am an interpreter of music rather than a composer of it.
I think I compose as a listener: improvising and listening back excites me because I get to ideas that never would have occurred. Then I bring in the computers and samplers... and I begin to loop and process and change them.
Composing is sort of an intuitive act. You have to put yourself in the right frame of mind.
I consider myself a composer.
I run around so much that I finally reasoned that composing is the one musical endeavour which you can do anywhere, anytime.
I don't meditate before I play or compose, but I see playing and composing as meditative acts.
The more I compose, the more I know that I don't know it all. I think it's a good way to start. If you think you know it all, the work becomes a repetition of what you've already done. I try to make sure that I don't repeat my music.
I'm a composer, man.
I like to compose, but only for myself. I write my own lyrics and compose the music around them.
