“I wanted to find a bridge between Musique Concrete, electro-acoustic music, and proper rock music.”

“People don't realize enough how important and influentical John Carpenter has been in electronic music. He did his soundtracks by himself, using mostly electronic and analog synthesizers. He's a cult figure with DJs these days for good reasons.”

“When I began making electronic music, the only thing I was thinking about was creating music that I really liked. I didn't think about what effect it would have; I was busy doing it.”

“I wanted to create a bridge between experimental music and pop.”

“Any time you read the snide comments or people who have a hard time separating fictional television from reality, that's sort of just water under the bridge. It's easy to let that pass by if everyone in person is nice and warm.”

“My father lived to be 97 and played bridge every day up to the end, so I've got a 50 percent chance of living a long life like him.”
