I started learning UTAU so I won't disturb my fiancee by singing at night.

(I have lots of instruments, mics, etc.)  But there's something satisfying about working on a little plastic box with very limited resources and making it sound huge.

I sometimes wish I had a clone or twin brother that was just like me and with whom I could exchange albums, because I'm tired of my own music and it's kinda ego to sit at home listening to your own stuff.

'10-now i started getting more experimental and put less emotion into my work. which isn't really what I want so I've kind of rethought my philosophy on music and am starting to take a turn in a new direction.

I've been kind of sick of writing with computers for the past 6 months or so. Still don't really know for sure what I want to do with my music.

I make music as Kill3r Whale to get popular and make out with girls.

"Chip, at least for me, was always an experiment. I didn't plan on loving it as much as I do now but that's besides the point. When writing a track I can start with some weird groove or bassline and work from there to make something worthwhile or I can try to evoke a feeling with my music. Most of the time, though, the latter style falls through and ends up deleted. So I guess you could say I write through having fun with sounds"

Its a fun time to be a chiptuner,  there are so many people to respond to. Also that there is no genre definitions to stop you from making it to space.

I write music as an excuse to make song titles and cover art.

I make music to match my haircut.
Also as an excuse to indulge in obsessive amounts of drugs, riches, bitches, and fame.
