I'm Pampered Like You Wouldn't Believe.

I Worry About Being A Fogy And Just Writing For Orchestras. Like, Really, I Should Be Doing More Electronic Stuff, I Feel. Laptops As Part Of The Orchestra, And Installation Sound, And Speakers.

Obviously There Will Be A Backlash. If You Believe The Hype You Have To Believe A Backlash Too. Any Criticism We Get, Is Always Stuff We've Already Criticized Ourselves.

I Suppose Subconsciously I Was Thinking In Terms Of Having The Scale Of It Matching The Scale Of The Images. Hence The Sort Of String Quartet, Jazz Band And Electronic Stuff.

People Will Have Mp3s Of Every Miles Davis' Record But Never Think Of Hearing Any Of Them Twice In A Row - There's Just Too Much To Get Through.

I Suppose, Counting Back, If The Beatles Had Been Influenced By Music In The Same Length Of Time Ago - You'd Have To Put That Into Better English For Me, Thank You - They Would Have Been Like A Banjo Orchestra. They Would Have Been Doing Show Tunes.
