Hello William (and everyone else, of course)!
Long time reader, first time poster - haven't bothered to sign up before I thought of this question yesterday.
How do you write the music that you create, William? I can't believe that you use regular notation, but writing "at 2:30 into the song, turn this knob 3/4 turn" seems inefficient. Or do you just memorize everything and never put it down on paper (or in a document, for that matter)?
Really interested to know.
Also, I'm really looking forward to the Afro Noise LP. :)

it's top secret ;-)
seriously though - and this might sound a little coy, vague, and of course only speaking generally - it's combining applied intent to your ideas and realised in any way that works; it's not so far removed from the traditional model but using whatever means of creating those imagined sounds that happens to be available to you (whereas in the mainstream model, most of the work is already done for you in the form of rhythmic/melodic/stylistic templates)
WB.

Thank you for the answer William, which I have to say does sound a little vague. Interesting, nevertheless.
