Notes: the booklet contains the corresponding 24 questions.

The answers were edited out of the interview with Pip Dann from the UNSOUND METHODS EPK.

 

 

    • 01: Firstly, can you tell us how the Recoil project came about?

    • 02: So perhaps it wouldn't have become a full time thing if you hadn't left Depeche Mode?

    • 03: So why did you leave Depeche Mode then?

    • 04: How would you compare the working methods you employ now to how you've worked in the past?

    • 05: What did you consider were the pros and cons of sticking with Recoil?

    • 06: So, how does the music come together?

    • 07: Do you ever get surprised by what you come uo with?

    • 08: What would you say is the overriding mood of your music and where do you think it comes from?

    • 09: How does this instinctive approach relate to your classical training?

    • 10: Can you explain the role of your guest vocalists on this project?

    • 11: So who did you use this time around?

    • 12: Isn't it a bit risky to use unknown people?

    • 13: Siobhan Lynch sings on the first single "Drifting", tell us more about her, and other singers.

    • 14: What exactly were you looking for from each of them, what were the guidelines?

    • 15: Perhaps you could tell us about some of the themes?

    • 16: Where did the title come from and how does it relate to the end results?

    • 17: Do you keep up with the current music scene?

    • 18: Would you ever consider writing music for a soundtrack?

    • 19: People say you have a trademark sound. Can you describe what you think it is?

    • 20: How do you approach the question of sampling. What's your view on it?

    • 21: Is making music a kind of therapy for you?

    • 22: How do you plan to promote this project?

    • 23: Do you have any touring plans?

    • 24: Finally, what are your own expectations for this record?
