Utah Saints chat to I Like Music
JEZ: Thank you. Well, it used to be very time consuming. It's almost laughable now the equipment we were using, it was almost steam powered! We had an old Atari computer and a big old Akai sampler and the general way we make tracks is to make the rhythm work properly and then we work out a bassline and then Tim and I both always liked to have the hook lines so we try and fling in as many hook lines as we can and, if it gets too cluttered we take things out, and then it's finished.
With the samples for example, the first time round working with samples, we had to have this big logarithmic chart on the wall and that'd tell you by what factor you had to alter the sample to get it to fit at a certain speed. Even then it was hit or miss and it took about half an hour to process one sample and if you got it wrong you had to go and recalculate the whole thing! So it was incredibly time consuming. But you can do that now in a few seconds on a lap top. So it's now very liberating for us because we can try out lots of different ideas really quickly.

Leon Jean-Marie: ilikemusic because... It transcends. It really creates emotion with someone. That feeling it gives you, it goes through boundaries. To create something, it just breaks through all the walls. When you connect with a song, that is it, that is magic isn't it?
simon f baker: ilikemusic because... you can transcend the confines of the material world with it, it's probably better than shagging in fact. There is virtually nothing more satisfying than when a load of chords and words suddenly come together into a song ; suddenly everything in life seems to fit and make sense once more.
Mister Jitter Skitter: ilikemusic because... Bluespop - a chance to experience what we can't afford .. is that imposed, and abandon ourselves in the luxury of self attained clarity .. is that an aspic

Scott, Thin Lizzy: ilikemusic because... It lets my adrenalin start pumping, it gets aggression out, and sometimes I can actually get emotional with it. There are many reasons why I like music.
