"Something about music urges us to engage with its larger context, beyond the piece of plastic it came on-- it seems to be part of our genetic makeup that we can be so deeply moved by this art form. Music resonates in so many parts of the brain that we can't conceive of it being an isolate thing. It's whom you were with, how old you were, and what was happening that day."

"Sometimes, at night, back in our apartments, we'd record radio sermons on the cassette recorders of our late-seventies boomboxes... the harsh megaphone-like quality of these vocals actually had much more character than a "good" recording... One was subliminally aware that these vocals were "secondhand" or disembodied, and this quality made them feel like transmissions from a desperate planet-- ours."
