I realized there were no words or anything in my music, nothing that people would have to draw them in a little bit more.

I feel like there's a young generation of producers who are taking inspiration from dubstep but trying to push it in other directions.

People read into the music. I have a feeling that they can believe that I'm trying to put some emotion forward. It's not just some technical exercise.

When drum'n'bass happened, when the two-step/garage thing happened, there was a chart smash every week; it operated on the underground and the pinnacle of pop mainstream at the same time.

So many people I was at school with have all ended up being musicians and putting records out.

When I first heard bands like Tortoise, it seemed to come off the back of that world, like let's make a record with three vibraphones and release it on a seven-inch with black-and-white artwork.

I think the most important thing for me is putting out records that document ideas.

Gospel isn't some ditty to make people enjoy their afternoon - it's communicating with God.

I find the more I DJ, the more ideas I have and the more music I want to make.

My father is a massive, massive music fan. I grew up listening to rock, soul and jazz.

The lo-fi scene and the riot grrrl thing had a huge influence on me. As a teenager I went to see Bikini Kill and all those bands.

Believe in true beauty and the power of a loving smile because it can reveal the ultimate magic of life.

Thy silence, then that voices thee.

How southern belle of her.

Happiness is the natural flower of duty.

I love learning, and I think that curiosity is a wonderful gift.

... the desire for truth must take precedence over all other desires.

All I wanted to do was read, to be told stories. Stories were full of excitement and emotions and characters that entertained and often inspired.

Ah, lady, when I gave my heart to thee, It passed into thy lifelong regency.

In government and out, there are vast realms of the bureaucracy dedicated to seeking more information, in perpetuity if need be, in order to avoid taking action.
