I was starting to feel really suffocated, using the sequencer.

I’ve started thinking about pure electronic music again. Something very melodic, very aggressive.

The older ideas are rendering more and more bland music.

I'm starting to play all the melodies with kind of keyboard sound but playing it from the bass guitar.

Your responsibility as an artist is to experiment.

I make music to generate atmospheres, not to complement already existing ones.

But I always communicate with the audience. I never pretend like I'm just in my bedroom making a track. The whole point of doing a gig is, like, a feedback thing between you and the audience.

I like my stuff 'cause I only ever end up with tracks that I really, really like. It always appeals to me.

Because, when I'm making music, I don't think about anything, you know? All I think about is what I want to hear. So that for me is what I want - I want my head to be constantly being rearranged.

The only way to find that territory is trying to keep your mind constantly open. That's the only way that you're ever going to see the sort of signs of where to go.

War grows out of ordinary human nature.

An airport is a potent place, a point of reunions and departures. For the traveler, it's a crossroads at the moment of decision, a flashpoint that separates intention from retreat.

Believe in yourself up here and it will make you stronger than you could ever imagine.

It is the bullet you don’t hear that gets you.

The disclosure of a new fact, the leap forward, the conquest over yesterday's ignorance, is an act not of reason but of imagination, of intuition.

Words There is no good father, that's the rule. Don't lay the blame on men but on the bond of paternity, which is rotten. To beget children, nothing better; to have them, what iniquity!

Ybon was the one who suggested calling the wait something else. Yeah, like what? Maybe, she said, you could call it life.

Sometimes a piece of sun burned like a coin in my hand.

I just like a great song. I just wanted to be this true reflection of what is in my heart and it ended up becoming my life which was kind of surreal, but I do enjoy writing for other people.

God has no need for our worship. It is we who need to show our gratitude for what we have received.
