Plugging into guitarist Mike Haldeman’s unique digital rig:
I didn’t want these still, magical, mystifying moments of my interaction with music to become demystified by suddenly understanding complex jazz harmony. It’s like there’s a sound there that I love, and I want to keep its magical essence. I don’t want to understand it. I want it to be something that still remains kind of confusing and elusive and something that I have to search for.
[I want it both ways. All the understanding and all the magic. I may never get to both places, but that’s the dream.]
