I'm Always Working On My Own Music,

When I Did "top Of The Pops" For The First Time, Ace Of Base Was One Of The Other Bands, And I Have A Memory Of Them On A Small Stage Next To Me In The Tv Studio. A Memory Of Their Performance Is Burned Into My Mind. Seared.

Sea Change Was So Specific. From The Beginning It Was Set What It Was Going To Be. All The Other Ideas That I Had At The Time I Had To Put To The Side.

Back Then, Pro Tools Only Had Four Or Eight Tracks, So We Couldn't Actually Hear All The Tracks. We Could Only Hear Eight At A Time, So If A Song Had 25 Or 30 Tracks, We Wouldn't Be Able To Hear It Until We Went Into The Studio An Put It All On Tape. The Process Was A Little Bit Backwards.

Especially In Music, You Wonder, Okay, Should I Still Be Doing This? Like, Are You Overstaying Your Welcome At The Party? But I Don't Know.

You Spend So Many Months And Years In The Studio, And You See The Clock Ticking And So Much Time Spent On The Minutiae Of Technical Things. And I Just Thought It'd Be Fun To Do Something Extremely Fast And Get That Rush Of Something That Had Some Energy, Something That You Weren't Tired Of When You Finished It.
