We Are Scientists chat to I Like Music
We have a few pretty basic precepts that we try to follow in every song: which is that every verse should be different, certainly no more than two choruses before you do something like a bridge, or just change the song entirely. It's just trying to keep the song interesting for us, as we have to play it 40 times in practice.
ILM: From one of your first shows at a southern Californian college to your current tour what stands out as a highlight for you, either performing or in your life in general?
CHRIS: Well… I had a kid in December, and I think the guys are pretty excited about my little guy too, so that's been a big band highlight. Having a little merch slave on board is nice. What else? Getting signed two years ago was fairly momentous. It's definitely allowed us to make this a career rather than a hobby.
ILM: And get more plasma screens and stuff?
CHRIS: My living room! There's no more than 6 square inches that's not covered with a plasma screen of one variety or another. It's a beautiful sight. It looks like a showroom. I'm thinking of putting price tags up just to complete the illusion.

Jun: ilikemusic because... music can convey a mood, enhance a mood or change a mood. Music can be used to inspire and the artform is simple yet complicated. It's fun to listen to and even more fun to create and perform. It speaks when just a simple word can't. It's a blessing!!
