Trevor Dunn Musician Quotations

NYC is chaotic. And I am attracted to chaos.

I think it was more personal, but I certainly tried to adapt certain concepts of Surrealism.

There's a reason I moved to NYC, and if I listed all the musicians on my list you'd grow weary.

I love being a musician. I love the lifestyle. But I think it's probably as difficult and frustrating as anything.

I love playing in Fantomas, which is very strict in terms of composition.

Well, musicians everywhere make up a small part of the population, so incest is to be expected.

I would never be able to choose one project over another because it is the balance, the variation, the change that is important to me.

Well, I've never been to Japan so I couldn't say. I do know that we have a bit of a following there however.

I guess the two Manifesto, Communicating Vessels, Mad Love, and some of his poetry made a significant mark on me but as far as bringing a literary element into the music I see it as a much broader assimilation.

In fact, I try to embrace the music, personality, style, phrasing of other's depending on who I'm playing with. I try to reflect their music.
