I don't mind snakes. Growing up in South Africa there were a couple a
snakes around... .and I'm not talking just about the government!
When I finished a song that I thought was good, I thought, I don't know
where that came from, so I have no idea if I can do that again. I'm
talking like, a hundred and fifty songs down the line. I still feel
that.
I love being in a band. I love that collaborative spirit, although some
would suggest that I don't get involved in the collaborative spirit,
but it's not true.
The process of composing the film score for each movie is completely
different. They all have their own personality and their own completely
different life but there's never been a formula. Each time it's a new
thing.
At the end of the day it's all music. I think the big difference now is
I used to write music just as music. Now the movie has become my
conductor. The picture has now become integrated into my creative
process.
