6 quotes

I function as a channel through which music emerges from the chaos of noise.

The New Age music: "gave the opportunity for untalented people to make very boring music".

On music: "Scientifically, believe it or not, music drives everything, because music equals universe and universe equals music".

Music for me is life, I stay in my studio until ten or eleven at night and I record every day. Not for money or for albums - I just compose music.

If I've made money from music, it was never my aim to do that. I didn't do it to become famous. I absolutely respect and I believe I serve music.

On working alone: "I enjoy working alone. I know myself, and I know what I want... and all this allows me to create my music before my thoughts can interrupt".
