After hearing My Life In the Bush of Ghosts

> What advice would you give young musicians?

Persevere, work hard, create your own path & follow it, never stop learning

> When did you first get excited about sound?

The first time I played in my Dads empty grain silos – thunderous reverb!

> What advice would you give young sound designers?

keep your ears & mind open, never stop learning, respect those with more experience but learn to trust your own ears & sensibility & develop trust in your instincts, listen before speaking, collect sounds as often as possible & build your own unique library, never stop learning, educate yourself with film from as many cultures as possible, keep your ego in check, never stop learning….

Well, to answer for me :
When did you first get excited about music? When I heard for the first time Fear of the Dark from Iron Maiden. Wow. I forget everything else, the CD was on repeat. It was live, it has energy, I love it. Took me nearly 12 years to dare touch a guitar, thinking about electronic music and so on, but well. I love it.
What advice would you give young musicians? Love what you do, and it shouldn’t feel like work.
