A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
记录
Records
That is what the title of artist means: one who perceives more than his fellows, and who records more than he has seen.

When I started making my own records, I had this idea of drowning out the singer and putting the rest in the foreground. It was the background that interested me.

I find with records, they become what they're going to become. They take on a power and a direction of their own. Part of making records is to honor that and not try to force it.
