Music looks very formidable to people outside of it and it looks like it's this realm of spooky genius.
Brian Eno developed systems to keep himself on edge and to keep himself in a position where he's generating ideas.
It was so much fun conducting an orchestra and watching the musicians' faces as some of Kanye's lyrics went by. They couldn't believe what was going on.
[Brion calls his working relationship with West a natural fit.] His knowledge and understanding of records across the board is great, ... That's the reason why we got along: We don't see music as something that happens in one genre.
Things begin, things decay, and you've got to find a way to be okay.
