Sound Quotes

• We were being put somewhere interesting from being involved with analog, to working with digital. Those two worlds just collided and it felt great!

I subsequently got a record deal because of that.

• This may sound mad, but you sort of assume that no one's going to watch what you do. You go on set, have a lovely time, and then you forget anyone's going to see it. So it's always a bit of a shock to be recognized. I get terribly embarrassed.
