"I thought my forte was to make the synthesizer as human, as flexible, and organic as possible. That was my goal with 'Echoes' and even more so with 'Words of a Mountain.' I also thought genuine funk had nothing to do with robotic quantizing. This is precisely what we tried to demonstrate with Compass Point and Level 42. As dynamic and creative as dance and electronic music might have been, I never felt I belonged to the genre. It really obliterates the rest of us electronic musicians who are painters of non-robotic landscapes. It's a real drag."
