Listening to music for me is like homework. Music will give me enjoyment, but as soon as it's giving me that enjoyment, I want to analyse it, and then it becomes work. Why does it sound like that? How?... then I dissect it.

I sort of look at music as helping me get through situations.

I think my music generally transcends a lot of genres.

I have sometimes been told that my music is 'difficult' for the listener.

I'm constantly on my toes and re-examining my own music.

I work very hard on getting the songs as direct and examined as I can before I go in the studio.

When you're working with music that is invariably better than you are, it's difficult to become swell-headed.

It's wonderful when music is intellectually stimulating. But ultimately it has to be a visceral experience.

Music has always been such an amazing tool for me to access self and emotion.

I always listen to a lot of different music when I am working on a project.
