"I saw Bowie play at Hanover Grand. I think it's really wicked that Bowie can get inspired by what we do. I love the amount of people from any genre coming to check it. I don't think everyone should slate him down 'cos I don't think they have a right to do that. Bowie is Bowie, end of story. I'd fucking produced him, I'd dark him out. He's got something that I could turn out unbelievable."

"Goldie could make a go of almost anything he turns his hand to. He has got so much talent in a million different areas."

David Bowie

"Bowie banished my writer's block......he said, 'If you make a pile of crap tomorrow, the one thing you have to understand is that you've made (1995's) TIMELESS and nobody can take that away from you. So do what you do, carry on and reinvent yourself.'

I realised that after so many years what reinvention is. I spent my own wilderness of going away from what I had done musically so I sat on my arse for three or four years. Fame came and I did nothing."
