I have a cultural map in my head, where I find similarities between different cultures. For example, domestic Japanese pop music sounds like Arabic music to me - the vocal intonations and vibrato - and, in my mind, Bali is next to New York. Maybe everyone has these geographies in their head. This is the way I've been working.

The majority of the people think that noise is not music. I want to accept noise and even errors and glitches. I enjoy them.

I have to follow my instinct and intuition and curiosity.
