Music is my life. The things that people do don't seem interesting to me at all - going out to bars, carrying on, going to parties. What the hell do people do? Shop? Play golf? Have vacations?

My music, my whole approach to the synthesizer has completely changed now.
John Frusciante
Image
It means basically I'm using the synthesizer more to change the sounds of other things rather than to use it as the source of the sound.

Right now my taste is going more for things that are organic where the people are using all the sonic possibilities in interesting ways.

For me it's important to be in balance. To not let fear get in the way of things, to not worry so much about protecting yourself all the time.

I need people to call me, I never remember to call anyone - otherwise I'll just sit in my house and listen to music all day.

Lose yourself in the far off worlds that are right under your feet. Switch below with above all the way up into infinity. We should be thankful who we are, whether we know ourselves or not.

What I do on my solo stuff is just the most natural version of who I am, and I’m trying to represent the feelings that I’m feeling as purely as possible
