SPB: How has technology changed the recording process for you between your first professional-level recordings and today?

En Esch: When I started out we worked with an Emax SE Sampler with 512k memory space saved onto a floppy disk. For each song we had very minimal and especially short samples to pick from. Now I could spend the rest of my life listening to all the sounds and effects I have.  That makes it complicated to achieve your goal compared to the old times when we just had one good bass sound and one good kick drum etc. Creativity was fast and direct. Now a days you spend a lot more time deciding what to use from all that’s available.
