“My approach to music,” he advises, “be it in a recording/production context or a performance capacity, has always remained the same -simplicity, space and taste are crucial. I think of music as an expression of personality, almost like a conversation, and so the ability to listen is fundamental. Whenever I play on a session or at a gig, I try to zoom out of my own part and hear what the song needs. In that sense, I would consider being a good player to be a good producer because it involves an understanding of the overall picture, rather than an ego-fueled battle of sounds.”
