Okay, what the hell...
- Do you compose on guitar or piano first or by noodling around on your pc? ('noodling' not meant in a negative way! )
Typically, I'll play on the actual instrument, get it the way I want it to sound, and go from there. If I like it, and it needs 'more parts', I'll record it, then play the next 'actual' instrument, etc..
If I don't own the instrument, or can't borrow it, I might muck around on the machine to get it, but prefer the real thing.
- Do you prefer to write lyrics first, then music or the other way around? (or at the same time)
Usually, lyrics first, because they pop into my head first. Sometimes it's the other way around however, and sometimes I'll convert an instrumental into a full song, just because later I'll come up with lyrics that might fit...
On the rare occasion, I'll get the full song in one lump.
- Do you record quick demo's first and decide later whether you proceed or do you aim for the final product directly?
I think nearly everything I've done has been demo, lol.
- Do you ever write and record at the same time?
The base is usually written ahead of time, but I do 'build' on that base by writing and recording at the same time occasionally.
- Do you record on a computer, hardware only, or both?
Both... Mostly whip up the demos on computer though, as I finally got some gear to do it.
- How's your relationship with the almighty click? (this one is for Sluice mainly, because his music often has multiple tempo ratios)
First track typically only. After that, it's annoying!
- What's your studio like?
I live in a very small room... Everything is in one room, bed, dresser, desk, computers, recording gear... Let's just say 'cramped'.
- How would you describe your equipment? Amateur, pro, semi-pro?
A little of everything

Shit mix!
- How do you stay focused and fresh? Do you listen to lots of other music or none?
Man.... I couldn't tell you how much I listen to... How do I stay focused and fresh? Glasses, and daily bathing.
- What are your main influences?
Damn good question... Emotion mostly, I suppose.
