That’s something I’ve got really tired of, that curtain of sound over everything all the time. You get this backwash and it never stops, everything is built onto this blanket of sound. There are occasions when it can be beautiful - there are a couple of tunes on Bill’s last album where it was nice - but l just wanted to break loose from all that and play the music that I’ve been working on for a long time. | That’s something I’ve got really tired of, that curtain of sound over everything all the time.

I tried adapting some of my existing pieces to SynthAxe, and it works really well for some. But there’s really so much more I can do with it.

I’m not too interested in sampling, but I like creating sounds from scratch. | I tried adapting some of my existing pieces to SynthAxe, and it works really well for some.
