man, you only live once - when it comes to music, try everything. use steel pans in yr songs, make an entire album of kazoo noise, have girls sing over whitenoise then write hour loing songs that are onyl the sound of water, have a violin player in the band, cover whitehouse and M.I.A and dress like nuns while you play, sample helicopters and eighties soap opera's, do glitch remixes of orbital records then yodel over them, use radiaotrs and tin whistles as instruments, reference every obscure nineteen forties finnish quintet you can think of. don't ever not do anything because it sounds wacky - it might turn out to the the best idea somebody else has ever heard.
