People are really set in their ways in how they produce records, and I was at least open enough to where I knew I wanted to do something totally different.

To me, making records isn't work.

It's always been difficult to make a good record. To be perfectly honest with you, it's really about the person that's pushing the buttons. No matter what type of equipment you have, you still have to have a certain talent to be able to make a good record.

I pretty much just focus on making the records - unless I'm self-releasing them; then I do my own thing. But at some point, you have to stop worrying about chains of distribution, or it takes out of your time to write.

I'm content with making records, but I don't want to be doing the same thing all the time.

All my records have been written to be records, rather than writing a group of songs and seeing if they fit together.

It was kind of easier for me to do records that didn't take a year or two years of my life to write and to make.

My original idea was to produce and not make records myself.

Because obviously the whole purpose of putting records out is purely and simply to make money.
