THE NORTH RIDING PROJECT

I like music made for utilitarian reasons, like elevator music.  You can take it out of its original purpose, then it’s just strange and very avant-garde.  It’s like an odd little art world, but the people who made that music didn’t think it was strange at the time.

We were trying to make what I called juxtaposition: a montage, or collage, to see how one thing influenced another.  We were quite informed by Dada.  They were about putting one thing against another and seeing what happens, and maybe you find a deeper truth in that collision.
