You're always compromising. You're being told what to do and what not to do. So I bought an eight-track recorder and work in my home now. I can make songs the way I feel like. She didn't come up with the melody, didn't play any of the instruments, didn't sing a lick.

In 1998, breakthroughs are such that DJs are coming out and releasing their own albums. Far beyond the limits of scratch trickery, DJs like Rob Swift, DJ Shadow and Cut Chemist stitch together breathtaking suites made up of prerecorded sources. This summer, Koala will tour Europe with Money Mark and the Beastie Boys. I'm not a turntable virtuoso yet. I like playing as a member of a unit.
