Quote:

He says he found the more usual reaction - grumpily wallowing in the
music of one's youth - equally unpalatable, and seems genuinely
horrified by the suggestion that the music scene would be livened up
considerably if he reformed the KLF. "Nostalgia," he frowns, "is a
killer. I know that stuff isn't working for me, but what drives me is
not disillusion, it's excitement. Instead of harking back about,
'Well, music used to have this thing,' I think it's great that this is
happening. That period is over. Recorded music is now over. We've got
a fresh slate, we can create all this new stuff that doesn't have to
fit those parameters of what recorded music was. It's an incredibly
exciting period for a young person making music."
