I think music is a selfish masturbatory event— for the listener, the maker, the candlestick…maker. It’s a device for having a good time, or for expressing the doing or playing of what’s hard to be saying. The purer the ideas are, more right-off-the-tap and not filtered through a bunch of channels, the better they sound. Or, at least, it’s the most honest take of whatever it is you’re doing.
