Pitchfork: I don’t need every detail, but what is the process?

Field: The process starts at this moment when I hear there’s a song a want to make something else. And I sample it, looking for bits and pieces in it that I really like and I’m trying to rearrange it. It could go backwards, forwards, sideways, everywhere, you know? Double it, loop some new things, new instruments, like the guitar in the software. And of course the beat. That’s probably the whole thing. Then I mix it live. Always.

Pitchfork: Oh really?

Field: That’s why sometimes you hear this loud burst of stuff? And it sounds a like mistake? That’s just me mixing everything.

Pitchfork: You mix it live, all the elements?

Field: Yeah, I mix it live to two channels, I have no return [laughs], I can’t get it back…or I’d have to rearrange the whole song in a way.

Pitchfork: So you do it multiple times and pick one?

Field: I usually pick one that I’m satisfied with, I rewrite the song. Sometimes it happens of course that I make two or three different takes of one track. Always, almost always, it’s the first one I’m satisfied with.

Pitchfork: So in “Sun & Ice”, like, five minutes in…

Field: Yeah, that was a mistake. That was the delay, like, overloaded in a way. The whole computer started to make that noise, distortion and stuff.
