if you were a jell-o flavor, which would you be
Oooh... Pomegranate probably.

as this jell-o, how would you explain to people that you write music
Id etch funk into my seeds.

when you write music, as jell-o or not, what sort've process do you go through? ( is there a specific agenda you work with or is it spontaneous, etc.. )
If I do have an agenda its normally just a good way to get started, rather than a strict idea. I enjoy making sounds and patches more than actually arranging music, which maybe explains my slow output...

if you had to take over the world, which country would you leave for large rocks
Fernando Poo.

what's the weather like right now
A typical english summer in Edgware. Grey, overcast, muggy. I wish I was under the sea... take it away Homer

do you own a plane, or a helicopter, plastic metal or paper
I have a lot of metal in my mouth, having typically bad english teeth. A stereotype propagated by Americans, who just have rotting minds. All great Empires come to an end, Rome, Atlantis and Thule all. One day you will fall America. oops.. wrong meeting.

if your primary tool to write music was wind, what floor would you live on, & would you have blinds or curtains or both or not
Ive tried harnessing nature but I feel more comfortable directing electrons.

how did u hook up w/spymania, & rate 1- 10, describe relation.
MDK of legendary now unfunct WAFTA is a friend from way back, school and that. He got to know Hardy from Spy about 8 years ago, its all been Gravy since. Hardy is living over in Sydney now, hes one of my real tight crew innit. miss yer mate. Uncompromising brothers of the left hand path, but they make absolutley no money, unless more people start buying more Spymania its gonna go to label heaven soon...

do u prefer a soup or a salad before the meal, sir ?
Soup, and clean my fucking shoe.

how did u hook up w/planet-mu, & rate 1- 10, describe relation.
Hardy sent a tape with some of my stuff to Mike P when he was compiling 'Mealtime'. I respect Mike because hes not afraid to say that he thinks one of my tracks is shit, and likewise I dont like everything on Planet Mu and he doesnt freak out if I tell him. I think the label has strengthened a lot recently, Leafcutter and Venetian Snares esp.

glasses, a monacles or two, or contacts, or maybe a crayon
Ive always wanted grey hair, i think its distinguished. Crayola should latch onto that.

if you had the power to delete people with a lil' delete button, & it had no effects to anyone but the person, would you ever push it
Yes, but id instantly regret it.

what's the scoop on new releases by mr.taylor, & wut work so far is your favorite one to listen to at night in a small box under a leaky shed in sawdust
Dunno track on forthcoming Spymania compilation "Buy this or we go under", and possibly for P.Mu as well. Ill probably do another full length on P.mu one day, like I said, im slow, my day job takes up a lot of my time. Favourite is always the last one I did.

how do u think the slag boom van loon remix project shaped up
It seems to be getting very positive reviews, a respectable collection of remixers.

Every day I _*_*_*_*_ with <\></><\></> until the .:':.:':. goes down.

if you were an octopus, what sort've house would you have

House music you say?... A lot of that old Carl craig shit, BFC, FRS... Moodymann, Derrick, Dancemania... plus newer stuff like Super Collider, Akufen and the odd bit of Perlon. I think soon ill release a record you can dance to, I like 'experimental' music, but my heart is in that deep detroit house thing.. more than skittery lectronix.

Superman or Doc Savage
Doc Savage, but I cant remember why.

if you were in a band called steven chico & fernandez, what sort've music would you make
Some kind of raunchy pub-rock.
