(THE MONOCHROME SET)
answers the MUSIC WORKS Questionnaire
BID
1.QUALIFICATIONS?
“Badges? We don’t need no stinkin’ badges!”
2.CAREER HIGHLIGHTS?
For me, life is made up of hundreds of vignettes, not one grandiose panorama. So, I remember many small things that have happened, like short clips from a movie, or very short stories. There are too many to list.
3.AMBITIONS?
I hope we can use a real orchestra on the next album.
4.WHICH SONG(S) YOU WISH YOU HAD WRITTEN?
None.
5.DESERT ISLAND DISCS?
Maybe Die Dreigroschenoper, maybe anything by the Quintette du Hot Club de France, but I couldn’t listen to the same thing over and over again.
6.FAVOURITE ARTISTS/BANDS OF ALL TIME?
I don’t really have favourites, as I like a lot of different things.
7.WHAT MUSIC ARE YOU LISTENING TO NOW?
Booker T. & the MGs – “Melting Pot”.
8.THE LAST BOOK YOU READ?
Some Moomintroll book, I think. I rarely read.
9.HOBBIES?
Cooking, playing old video games. Watching football sometimes.
10.VINYL, CASSETTE, CD, MP3, WEB STREAMING..?
I prefer it when people buy our CDs or vinyls, because they get to read the lyrics.
11.INDIE MUSIC IN THE AGE OF THE INTERNET?
On the one hand, it’s much better, because bands have more power to control their own destiny, and fans and bands can interact more easily, but on the other hand, the internet has played a part in society becoming ever more shallow and directionless.
12.PERSONAL MOTTO?
“Victory or Death!”
