Miracle of Sound: Q & A With Miracle of Sound

[MrCollins]

Thanks a lot for answering my question, I really like little side-note songs that take less effort. The reason for that is they feel more spontaneous and frivolous. Still, this in no way should be taken as a suggestion to stop the complex layered stuff, which is also great.

Aww, I couldn't ask any questions because my internet was down *sad face*
I was gonna ask if there were any styles of music you would never consider doing? (Like dubstep *spits*)

Also, don't worry about the tinnitus, Mr. Of Sound. I've had a bunch of crazy-ass neurological stuff, including tinnitus, for about 13 years now. For about 12 years of that time, it's been such an ordinary part of my life that it doesn't phase me at all anymore. It's loud, sure, but because of how normal it's become, if it disappeared right now, I'd probably never notice.

Don't let it bother you, just have faith that, at first it's extremely irritating, soon after, it's mildly annoying and after that it's nothing at all. You'll be fine, I promise you.

Where can I find the wiggley sticks song on Game Informer?

Thanks to Gav, I'm listening to achtung baby for the third time tonight. I used to hate U2. Seriously, it's always great to learn more about you, Gav. I still think an autobiography would be an awesome read. AND! I can't wait to hear some of the older stuff in better quality. And new stuff! (Ahem, convenient place to plug an interview I did with him http://www.trashmutant.com/tmi---miracle-of-sound-interview.html).

1. UP THE IRONS!
2. I think I love you Gav
3. Keep making music, you inspire me man.

I hope you're adjusting well.

Also, just wanted to say that the Mass Effect 2 suicide track is my favourite as well. Very moving; gets you pumped. In the end, that's what music should do, isn't it?

I remember one time on Top Gear, Richard Hammond compared a car to U2 -- he said that every time they put out an album everyone always moans that they should stop, but then they listen to the album and say "Damn, it's actually good; I can't bash it."
