„h&f Exklusivinterview – unter 4 Augen mit…Binker Golding“
Questions
- Have you ever kept something as souvenir from a recording session / studio session?
If I’m leading the recording session, I’ll keep my notes & spread sheets I make in the session, just as documentation so I know what I was thinking. I keep them in an archive.
- What’s your artistic approach – what message or attitude do you transport with your music?
Truth & honesty are the two things I’m primarily interested in projecting into my work.I’m interested in the human condition & representing it in music. My music so far has always been personal.
- What do you love about being a musician?
Creating things that didn’t exist before.
- What is the ’special thing‘ of the new record?
I feel it’s a more honest representation of human nature & feelings. I feel as though I’ve got slightly better at articulating things through music. I also think that compositionally & technically as a saxophonist, it’s my best work.
- What was the most challenging barrier or obstacle during production?
Getting the recorded sound exactly right is the hardest thing I find. I have to work with engineers & explain to them the sound that’s in my head & its difficult to bring that to life. The writing process was also difficult for this record.
- How would you title your autobiography?
“A philosophical enquiry into the nature of day-dreaming”
- What qualities do a persons need to get along in today’s music business?
It’s difficult to say. Just as soon as I think there’s a formula, something contradicts it. I would say persistence it the only constant.
- What’s the most appropriate situation for listening to your new record?
Alone in a room your comfortable in on a stereo. Or awake in bed at night on a stereo.

A storage warehouse. I don’t know where that recording is now, its been lost.
