Sound Quotes

Unsoil'd, and swift, and of a silken sound.

Enya never writes a bad melody. That's first and foremost her secret. As she goes along, she'll start changing the dynamics, pushing here and there so that not everything is perfectly in unison. It adds a texture you can acquire only from having different voices. The variations lead to interesting quirks. It's an integral part of the Enya sound.
Nicky Ryan
-
He is the most important thing in my music. If The Hacker didn’t exist I’m not sure if I’d be here today. He explained a lot of things to me; it all came from him… I had been obsessed with his sound, because for me his music is the perfect combination of the past and the future. It was the only music I understood because everything he made was so logical for me.
Mike Levy
