read what Ross hagarth said (2nd post down)
....
"i know that i have music everyday in my life in one shape or another
it is my inspiration for work , it is my work and inspiration
i look at audio differently then music
audio is technical
music is not
i try and take audio and turn that back into music or keep the music and the audio one
sometimes, and very often i need to manipulate audio and forge that back into music
i do find that i think about this and act on this almost everyday"
