Maybe it’s a confidence thing, but I get nervous when there’s no one around to bounce things off. As a one man department it can get very lonely, but there is the freedom to make your own decisions. It’s liberating, but I’m the kind of person that needs other points of view. I’d written a proposal thingy yesterday and got into a bit of a panic when there was no one around to take a look before I sent it on.
I was listening to some old Prince stuff on tape, and I realised how good he used to be when there was a manager, a record label and a sound engineer to tell him when he was wrong. He used to be surround himself with other musicians and steal ideas all the time. Now he’s no one to push against his music’s a bit of a joke.
