Instead of improvisers who want to be funny by themselves, we aim to try and make the scene itself as funny as possible.

It's funny, but to me, when you go to a concert hall and hear electronic pieces from the '60s, I think they sound really dated. But when an orchestra plays a piece from that period, and it's going to sound different every time, it feels more modern to me.
