On musical discovery: "My stepdad sent me this tape of 'The Best of The Doors'. That night I stayed in my room and just played it over and over again, every instrument, every word, the way the choruses fit and then - poof! - it was like 'The Matrix'. I knew how music was built." (The Observer, 2001). Pic: Pieter M Van Hattem
