When I create music, the feeling that you get... I get first. You [the listener] have a delayed experience with the feeling I initially get when I have a creative insight. Not just the voice, but all the creativity - the production, the idea, the concept, the music involved. There is a high. There is an emotional experience that happens when everything comes together... I made music as consistently as I did, especially back in the day, because it made me feel so good... When everything is on, it's a wonderful feeling.

I just turned 40, and it's weird to think that I've been doing this almost my whole life.

Dabbled with school, went back to college, played around. I think I was doing Pleasantville at 23.
