SUMMONER'S TALES...
"I'm famous for making polemic statements just to see what reaction they get. For me, the most important element in music is surprise. When I listen to music, I want to be surprised. When I compose music, I want to lay a surprise within a certain number of bars. And then, when I choose to do the music I want to present to the public, again, I want to surprise them."
