Jon Hopkins says : "Ice bathing has a very long list of health benefits, but to experience it is the only way to know it," "You get this crazy endorphin rush and there's the mental challenge of how you respond to stress – if you can relax in freezing cold water then you should be able to deal with anything. You feel euphoric for the whole day afterwards"

Jon Hopkins says : "I think there's some truth behind the fact that whatever you do in your day-to-day life will appear in your music," "As you reach this age our bodies start speaking to us a bit louder. Learning to be in tune with your mind/body connection is one of the keys to good mental and physical health. That's a challenge that's really important to master"

Jon Hopkins says : "I definitely have a limited amount of techno tracks left in me – I can feel myself naturally turning away from that," "I love music that can elicit a trance response and if you look back through history, at tribal drumming circles and forms of indigenous music, they're always much longer. We gravitate to that as a species"

Jon Hopkins says : "All the sounds were created using an antique Tibetan singing bowl that my stepmom found for me in Delhi. You can create a variety of sounds with it including this very beautiful, hypnotic drone sound, which is obviously part of a prayer ritual. I built a soundscape out of these on a laptop, layering and processing this one instrument to create a constantly shifting wave of resonating harmonics,"

Jon Hopkins says : "This is the first time I've created music solely from a single sound source, which was really liberating in a way. It's also the first piece I've written that doesn't use a traditional harmonic scale. All the harmonics you hear are generated by this metal bowl, so it has a drone base but it's not in a key actually,"
