Hi Ike,

Trying to answer you questions below. I definately like to write songs more than performing others creations.

1. Lyrics - Nope Idon't have a standard method. Most of the time I let creativity flow, but sometimes it's hard to come to lyrics and I really have to work my way towards something acceptable. The use of thesaurus is unavoidable.
2. Song - Sometimes I start with some nice chord changes, sometimes it starts with a line of text which I put to music and sometimes I hear something interesting when I;m just noodling around.
3. Same as 2.
4. I think the best songs I've written are my latest ones: 1. Let me in, 2. So easy and 3. And it takes some time. Because I have the feeling I'm still improving. There's lots of realtracks in them. With 1 I started with noodling on the piano, with 2. I started with some chords and with 3. I started with a melody line with lyrics in my head.
5. 90% is spent playing your own original music
6. I give that a 2
7. About 33 years now.
8. I don't teach music
9. I consider my musical genre interests to be very wide. Just take a listen hahaha
10. Technology has made it much much easier for me to write, because I don't need to master all instruments.
11. Technology is rather influental to my song-writing (see above)
12. I don't think so, because there are so many different genres and styles. Technology is just a tool after all.

Cheers,

Superbron

It's nice to be important, but it's more important to be nice.
