"I was a big fan of Eno from day one. I brought Oblique Strategies from Rough Trade way, way back. It was a black box of cards that had different phrases on them like, ""Reverse it"" and ""Start in the middle"" – all kinds of possibilities. I loved his early stuff. The track 'Baby's on Fire' from Here Come The Warm Jets is great. Roxy were never the same without him. He was commissioned to write this music by Al Reinart who was making a documentary from footage shot of the lunar landings. It's a marvelous record. After a show or a long day's work it's the ultimate one to stick on, get in the bath, cup of tea, a stick of incense and you're laughing. It's more musical than the rest of his ambient stuff. There are bits of it that have a country and western twang."

"This is another record that has taken up my time over the past decade or so and I think this is her best album. I can't wait for the next one. She's been brilliant in forging her own path and it's really exciting. She played with us on the Neon Neon stuff but she was releasing records, mostly in the Welsh language, for a few years before then. I think she's on a really interesting musical journey. She is an amazing songwriter, a very natural songwriter who could write anything. She was in LA but she's been in the Lake District for a couple of years now. With this record in particular, there are some incredibly profound songs and she makes experimentation and improvisation extremely palatable to the ears which is very hard to do. Just to be able to make really unique pop music is also incredibly hard to do!"
